The little deer that moves
across the play field
looks fun.

I don't think it will be a hit in the private market, but I hope it turns out to be a big earner on location.

The theme doesn't wow me, but I do like a lot of the pf artwork.  The overall pf layout looks a fair bit different than most recent machines (that I can recall) with the two flipper lanes on the right side.  I kind of like the ramp shots on the left and the bumper shots on the right.

I would like to play BBH, but unfortunately finding a pinball machine on route in Kansas City is almost impossible.  Maybe with the success of the arcade game there will be a better chance of these being on more routes.

I'm sure they'll be on the showrooms of one of the local distributors here. I've never had problems finding a new game there.

[Q*Bert_OP]

Sadly I'll never get the chance unless Q-Bert gets one and lets me inside this time.

We'll see...I don't buy any new games until I play them first. So far, BBH looks promising.

BTW Jim, are you going to the TX pinball festival in March?

Its funny how just because Ops bought the arcade game... that they think it will
work with pinball.   Those money men are real suckers.
 
 The only reason the arcade game did well, was cause they stopped selling any
arcade games about that time.  It was about the ONLY game an op could buy.

 What can I say... Its a better theme  than Ripleys!  lol
 But if Stern thinks this pathetic level of game design & theme is going to save them...

 Ugg.
