JERSEY JACK PINBALL
StephenH:
I have played Wizard of Oz Pinball. I was impressed at the quality for a start-up company. it is still a prototype but a good game. The RGB LED lights at add a lot to the gameplay, especially when you think of the Oz line "We must be somewhere over the rainbow". The video screen adds a lot too. The gameplay is kind of a mix between some of the old electromechanical action combined with many features you would find on a newer mechanical pinball. They also implemented many of the famous quotes from "Wizard of Oz" and even some video scenes from the movie. Some of the former Stern designers are now working for Jersey Jack. According to the founder, Jack Guarnieri, it is one of the best selling pinball today. If you are in San Diego, you can find it at Nickel City Arcade.

I spent about a half hour playing it this past sunday. The software is coming along. The crystal ball image is better than it was last time I commented but you really have to focus away from the ball to see the image. Still not all that useful to the game. I think it's going to be a winner but the real winner is probably the platform itself. Lots of future potential.

Last time I checked, WoZ was the antithesis of cool. You could do a generic zombie themed cabinet and already grab much more attention from teenagers.

I present to you - A VPCabs production.

Not bad! I think that would grab my attention pretty easily. I like the blood dripping from the legs.
