I really want to play Aadams Family pinball, as its one of the best of all time

Thanks in advance

Mr.I

Technically speaking, it IS the best of all time. Highest selling pinball machine of all time by a landslide.

You know why? It was made by bally/midway. Everything great we got from midway.

RIP midway.

Getting VP installed can be frustrating, but if you use the installer found on the VP Forums, it's incredibly easy. Getting Hyperpin to work was A LOT easier than I expected it to be. If Hyperspin is just as easy, then I may have to check that out too.

Hope it helps.
