Cactus Canyon Remake Pinball Machine Exclusive First-Look (Chicago Gaming Company, 2021)

[@GFkilla17]

When I played Cactus Canyon virtually on Pinball Arcade years ago, I actually wondered why we don't just go back and make more of the best tables of the past, and lo and behold... this is surreal. Thank you.

[@mystman1210]

The dots are so good! Looks way better than the LCD animations in modern pins in my humble opinion. There so much charm to DMD animations that is lost with the LCD displays.

[@SDTM]

You know what…… I think I have to agree in this situation! (Greg)

[@doomedamerica]

Not a fan of the LCD screens either the DMDs are way better

[@DubsBrown]

IMO all pinball should be like Circus Voltaire with maximum back glass and DMD under the glass where you can see it while playing.

[@doomedamerica]

@@DubsBrown I wouldn't mind that, minus the "ball in the cage" lol

[@mr.horseshoe2301]

Nah, DMDs ruined pinball forever. They made the games too complicated and confusing. Give me reels or alphanumeric displays anytime.

[@jlarsson1978]

They really nailed the music in the 90:s pins

[@SDTM]

Soooo classic!!!

[@colinbaxter7785]

Man that looks good. Cool topper too!

[@SDTM]

Even better in person!!! And you should see the little mini video game that activates it!!!!!

[@rushnerd]

You have other tables, then you have Cactus freakin' Canyon. Best I've ever had the chance to play.

[@bluecatlullaby818]

Table looks really cool, enjoyed the video. Tomb keeper mansion pinball comes out tomorrow

[@awesomepetertv]

I got to play it at pinball expo, trust me guys it's incredible

[@SDTM]

Absolutely

[@equipesuma]

Wow, every detail looks awesome. I've only seen this machine once in vegas and its a great fun game. congratulations, love it

[@SDTM]

It’s a blast to shoot!!! Hope you get to flip on it soon!

[@cocapipimonster76]

Thank you CGC.

[@andysodyssey8174]

Nice and can you believe I’ve never had the chance to play the original. Why I can’t tell you but thanks for sharing as this is the first glance of this beautiful game I’ve seen

[@SDTM]

Thank you! The originals were pretty rare! Hopefully you get to play this one soon! It’s even more stunning in person!

[@sardeeno]

Man... Stern should use you guys for reveals... X1000!!!👍

[@SDTM]

Very much appreciate your support!

[@imnitguy]

Just bought mine yesterday, Wish I'd have snapped up a medieval madness when I had the chance. I owned an original High End Pins one back in 2004 that I sold for $8600. So a new one with the updated code is a bargain. lol. Now the question is - do I open it?

[@jfreakzach]

And things like this are why pinball remaking is cooler than video game remakes.......... 👍

[@DubsBrown]

CGC toppers just hit different. Really interested if their original upcoming game will have the same polish

[@AndreaPessino]

PERFECT! :) And that topper is absolutely hilarious. Must have!

[@SDTM]

Yep! And that apron! I believe on the LE it’s real wood!!!!!

[@AndreaPessino]

@@SDTM So much fun! Can’t wait!

[@coconnor72]

Is this the limited or special edition?

[@clapadamclap]

This table looks so fun..

[@sjab5987]

Damn that screen is a thing of beauty.

[@SDTM]

Love to see stern do an upgraded expanded screen in there vaults like this!!! (Greg)

[@pinfarmer]

The sculpt and dots are great. Was hoping for the saloon doors to be added in. Can't wait to play on location

[@SDTM]

Big upgrade on Bart and that display!!!!

[@touchingevil2302]

This is a must buy, LOVE IT ❤️

[@SDTM]

It’s amazing to shoot! I think I’m “pulling the trigger” on one! (Greg)

[@quantumfx2677]

Yeah, can't wait to see how it plays, very possible if the play value is there I will get this one.

[@yojz]

Amazingly produced video! Which Pinstadium’s are you using??

[@AaronVanNoy]

Much better than the unfinished original! Amazing deal!

[@veganm8918]

Have you seen or played the remake? I am on the fence about selling my Elvis and buying this one. I used to play the original. In what ways did they improve the game? I know they did some additional code. But beyond that I don't know much else.

[@AaronVanNoy]

@@veganm8918 I have not played the remake yet. They had to add code because, technically, the original was never finished as Williams was going out of business at this time.

[@veganm8918]

@@AaronVanNoy Yes. And Isn't it something how the pinball industry has come back alive like never before. And I think the comeback is here to stay for a long time to come. Thanks for the reply.

[@SVTRonDogg]

Any idea on pricing?

[@randallkipker9990]

Suks the eluxe is alreadysold out and toppers will not be available for Se editions

[@tonyfrasca8747]

Anyone know when this is going to ship?!?! I can't wait!!

[@thatguybsmith]

This crushes Valhalla

[@carolinamarcg]

Will the code be finished? The CC Continued code the doors off the original code.

[@SDTM]

It’s a finished code but then I believe there will be an alternate code you can get for it in the future!

[@fishgrandpa]

Can’t wait for our to arrive 🎉

[@Smilephile]

Did they take out the spanish Bart? I get it but its kinda sad.

[@Leartech81]

I also read that CG will be re-releasing Medieval Madness in 2023... can you confirm?

[@baghy3635]

They announced it themselves at one of the cons....it's confirmed

[@thelastfeast3849]

When I first saw it’s only really half a train it felt like that scene where Gordon Ramsey only gets half a cake.

[@eric4013]

Que perfeição ficou demais essa maquina parabéns aos realizadores desse projeto ..

[@di4352]

The gameplay on Cactus Canyon is amazing, shout out to orange county pinballs, because I played CC at one of their venues for the first time and it was so good, me and my brother were hooked. It also cost less to play than the other games (4 coins vs 5 or 6) and it was way more fun and forgiving to play in my opinion. The LCD dot screen is such a nice touch and it looks way more pleasing than the other pinball machines, which just look generic and lame with that tiny 11" screen. The greatest beef with the bigger LCD screens for me is just the responsiveness, I think. It's also too distracting.

[@LaddPhoto1]

If Chicago Gaming can guarantee me that they fixed the playfield dimpling issue that my MBR LE had, I would be interested.

[@afattori316]

Won’t happen unless they use less clear coat. They spray too much.

[@GlennTwiddle1]

One Q, did the other machines secret stuff get in there ? The medieval, the Addams stuff etc ?

[@SDTM]

Was that secret stuff from the original code or from the Cactus Canyon Continued code?

[@GlennTwiddle1]

@@SDTM the stuff you mentioned in that video, yeah I think it was cactus canyon continued. And I think you said it was user created technically , not official

[@Bravesdarrell8552]

Probably going to be out of my price range. But looks fun. 👍👍

[@pinfarmer]

Well this was unexpected. Wish there was a classic model. Too pricy with exchange and tax in Canada.

[@SDTM]

Yeah I was a bit disappointed my self! Hopefully you can find one close to play because it’s fun as hell to shoot!

[@joshual2289]

Dude take my money!!!!

[@ncf1]

Stunning!

[@foo10002003]

Holy shit that looks good

[@merrychristmasvt]

No saloon doors then... :-(

[@MegaHowtoMan]

Where do you buy this I don't see it on their website

[@SDTM]

Check out Flip N Out pinball! It’s probably not on there website yet but give them a call!

[@afattori316]

When’s the next pin 2025?

[@redsteam1]

Looking forward to when somebody does The Addams Family. :)

[@SDTM]

AGREE!!!!!!!!

[@bammortgage]

I doubt it ever happens because of the licensing issues.

[@afattori316]

Too huge of a license headache. Won’t happen. Hope for Twilight Zone instead.

[@redsteam1]

Money. There is so much to be made you have to believe the IP holders would be interested in re-licensing to cash in. The Addams Family name (IP) is strong, some might not be aware but there were two new TAF animated movies released these past two years. While not the same thing the public's interest in The Family is still strong.

[@imnitguy]

I don't think they will ever remake TAF, because of licensing. I do believe the next one might be Twilight Zone.

[@HeavyMetal82]

Looks great! I would look forward to seeing how the completed code looks like compared to the original.

[@SDTM]

Yeah I’m excited to get more time in it! Shoots great but didn’t have a lot of time to feel out the code!

[@noneed4me2n7]

Was wondering this myself.

[@bammortgage]

Take my money NOW. Limited Edition please

[@SDTM]

Man that topper is well worth it!!!!

[@maxhemenway]

Is can the company do a Gottieb black hole remake?

[@SDTM]

Huuummmmm!!!! That would be prettt damn cool!

[@Siggy_Sour]

Damn! this is some kickass shit! It looks "Nutty" as they say.

[@SDTM]

Wait till you play it! Shoots so good!

[@PinballMayhem]

Great job on the promo video!

[@SDTM]

Thank you so much!!!!!

[@bradkreisler2892]

Interesting, but they changed Bart. I'll be keeping my original for now.

[@SDTM]

That’s the one thing I didn’t like about the original

[@jaspajones7045]

Stupid that it’s still not available.

[@urbanothepopeofdeath]

$40K? lol

Huh? This game is $8000-9250

[@beau6417]

I love how the flippers suck ass on all of their games yet they just don't fix it. Absolutely hilarious.

The ones along the sides and all over.
