Barry O's Barbecue Challenge Hot Sauce and Hot Rods Pinball Machine | First Impressions

[@jakemoore517]

I don't care for the theme but really enjoy the machine! A local arcade has it and I've played it there twice, I played maybe 4 or 5 game each visit and found it to be quite fun. Once you figure out how to activate recipes and boost them for extra points before banking them in, it's really a satisfying game! I also enjoy the multiball and the physical playfield ball locks.

Only 4 minutes in and already want o thank you for this very well done review

[@GonzosPinballFlipperama]

My pleasure mate, thanks for watching

[@elsquibbs]

I saw this in April in the USA at a pinball expo and it was a fun game. I think the MSRP in the USA was $5500? Something like that.

[@joshphelps4363]

Nah it's 7

[@joshphelps4363]

I'd rather lob my nuts off then pay that for this game

[@mrfuriouser]

It was show-special pricing on machines at the show.

[@lifewater989]

Barry Oursler was a kind, gentle soul and a hell of a pinball designer. Games like Space Station and Pin-Bot are some of my absolute favorites. This thing? I’ve yet to play it, but I immediately do not care much for the theme. Being a Yank, I love BBQ, but I just can’t get on with the theme. I think American Pinball missed the mark with this one. I’m not quite sure what they were thinking.

[@JamesGadbury]

I like the sound, artwork & lighting on this table. Looks sharp. What's the quality of build feel like?

[@mrfuriouser]

Build quality on all American Pinball machines is quite good.

[@johndoe-yw7eb]

Glad to see you give it a fair chance instead of just dumping all over it because of the theme.

[@LilAndroidMan]

Whys it not yet for sale on pinball heaven? Is it cos they know (or suspect) they arent going to sell any?

[@GonzosPinballFlipperama]

They don't have the pricing yet but absolutely will be available to order online.

[@nolesdennhardt8986]

Cool!

[@Kwistenbiebel100-ns5ko]

Why do people shake the table when the ball goes in the pop bumpers? I don't think it does anything.

[@mrfuriouser]

Well, it always does SOMETHING. Now, whether or not it's worth doing, I agree. I do know one guy who micro-shakes all pinball machines for the entirety of every game! He is very good, so I don't question his method. Not for me, though.

[@arcadeuk]

I'm not sure about the flow on this one, the majority of attempted shots were hitting posts or rattling off the sides of ramps

[@007bondson1]

I don’t think they are selling a ton in US but that’s just grapevine talk. BBQ not my type of theme when there are ENDLESS other amazing options/themes

[@jasonc2784]

It may be helpful to create a cheat sheet of points to read off of. A loose script. Thanks !

[@GonzosPinballFlipperama]

Mate, it's on a whiteboard behind the camera . . . that being said, there really is nothing to write on a first impressions reaction video

[@natgreystar]

Is it just me or does this look like Taxi but less fun?

[@thierrydelage1681]

This game costs the same as a Stern Pro in the US which means $7k so it should be priced around 8000 GBP once imported to UK. Far from being a "budget" game per se at such price point 😒

[@JamesGadbury]

$7k usd for the classic, $8.5k usd for the limited edition. I thought I read they're only producing 100 units, so they're all technically 'limited editions' in my book. Thanks for the video, Gonzo. Good to see this machine getting some positive recognition. Simple is a good thing if/when done right. RIP Mr Oursler. Thank you for all the games 🤘

[@ExpressoMechanicTV]

It would never appeal to me. Puts me in mind of Thunderbirds, really. Just not a game i would ever want, unfortunately.

[@GonzosPinballFlipperama]

It is significantly better built than Thunderbirds and shoots quite cleanly too.

[@afattori316]

Should have just been a hot rod theme. Too bad the animations are not great at all. Sad his name is tied to this pin. Could have been much better.

[@willempjebelgie]

auto shooter?

[@GonzosPinballFlipperama]

No mate, plunger/twanger

[@willempjebelgie]

@@GonzosPinballFlipperama thanks for the reply

[@Mechulus]

Sorry this is a bit exhausting to listen to. The first 5 minutes are you explaining this is a simple game multiple ways. A lot of repetition in other ways too. Tighter editing my friend. It will help your channel immensely.

[@GonzosPinballFlipperama]

Dude, it's going to be hard for me to make the videos just how you like them, you're probably better off making your own channel and videos. I don't have time for prolonged editing because I do it every day for work. KZbin is my job so I spend my days editing on my sports channels which pay my bills. This is a bit of fun and not work. But please, if it's exhausting, watch something else. I'm far from desperate for views on what is just a small hobby channel. I'd prefer people here who enjoy being here. Anyway, there is plenty of other content for you on youtube. Just click "not interested" and unsubscribe please. Thanks

[@Mechulus]

@@GonzosPinballFlipperama Thanks for "setting me free". Glad you didn't waste my time with another long-winded diatribe. I was never subscribed - I value my time too much for that.

[@kram2]

What a tosser 😂. This game is currently available in a fire sale and I came here to check it out Think I’ll pass, looks like this was designed for highway with the screen in the playfield
