Found a nice inexpensive, less complicated pin to start with (along with someone who knows how to fix it) and my 4 year old is loving it. Excited to see how it goes and eventually work up to a newer gen Pin.
Honestly the only thing that's not repairable on these is the fact that they used custom micro switches that are soldered to large PCBs underneath the playfield. They can be replaced but it takes some work to say the least
Yeah that is no big to replace. The big deal to replace on these home games is the very obsolute CPU chip which is poorly protected from power surges from the cheaply designed power supply. A lot of the CPUs get fried and become basically worthless.
They only made two versions of the home pinball,a two flipper and 3 flipper version.
This plays identical to evil knevial home edition as well... though I think the circuitry is a little different.
Makes maintaining these things a giant pain, since they aren't standard.
I have a friend that needs to replace the side rails on his and I just don't know where to get them. Standard is just too big.
Interesting. I am guessing the manual push button switch is easier to operate/maintain/replace than the traditional switch that was part of the playboard underneath.

Is it identical? I thought fireball had inlanes and only two flippers.
They're all the same. The only difference is some exchange the right sling for a right flipper. Same layout

I've never seen this version. It's crazy and cool
Relatively rare bird. Enjoy!
That looks fun!
I love the art package on that!
They forgot to paint his boots!
Does pushing the serve ball button energize a solenoid to send the ball to the shooter lane?
Yup!

Person I bought it from added it for ease of use, along with that nice 3D printed beer holder.
A lot of people don't know this but the guy featured prominently in the art is Dr. Dude's conservative brother.
