Bally Pin (Astrocade) - Crow Plays

Episode #185

Crow plays Bally Pin for the Astrocade.

This game was developed and published by Bally Midway in 1977.

Thanks for watching!

You would think that they would support some sort of playfield change, like Intellivision Pinball had. Out of all the early 80s consoles, I would say that Atari 2600's Midnight Magic and the Intellivision game were the best. On the 8-bit computers, Pinball Construction Set and another game with an airplane theme whose title I can't quite recall were very good for the day also. But thanks for putting up the vid of the Bally pinball game. Their real machines were way better! lol

Gotta love the dual-trigger flipper control! It's what makes Bally Pin worth playing if you ask me. Glad you've finally got a working Astrocade again! Were you able to fix one of the broken ones you had? (Hopefully it was the white one, it'd be a shame to see one of those get taken out of commission.)

And yet another stinger from my favorite MST3K episode, Giant Spider Invasion. :D

I was hoping to see what happened when you cleared all the little targets at the top. =(

It doesn't look to bad gameplay wise for a pinball game from that era but I agree that it seems a bit bland.
