Just thought I'd share in case anybody lives in Michigan around the area. They look to have some pretty cool classic arcade games and pinball machines, I'm excited to play Medieval Madness (even though I suck at pinball I love it).

That's pretty cool. I'd recommend trying out Twilight Zone and Theatre of Magic (in addition to Medieval Madness). They're great! Addams Family is pretty fun too IIRC.

Attack from Mars is another classic that I enjoy playing but it doesn't have as much variety as many other machines imo. Didn't really care much for AC/DC, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars Ep 1, Junk Yard and Monster Bash.

Let us know which ones you played and what you thought of them!

I'm not that good at pinball (but I'm on the Missile Command board haha) but I stuck to the classics. Black Hole, Funhouse, Medieval Madness, Whirlwind, White Water, Space Invaders (the pinball game), and the Metallica game.

Space Invaders (the pinball game)
I've always wanted to try it out although the machine looks pretty bare bones as far as pinball machines go. Gotta love the stressful music / sound from the arcade game :P

Sounds like you had a good time! Medieval Madness is pretty awesome, it lives up to the hype imo. I'd also recommend trying out Tales of the Arabian Nights if you happen to go there again and see it there. It's one of my favorite pinball machines. Used to play the crap out of it while I was in College :P

Space Invaders was a little boring but the sound effects were great. I think my brother hogged Arabian Nights all night haha.
