"No Good Gofers" - Pt. 11: My Pinball Collection (Williams 1997)

Here is PART 11 of My Pinball Collection featuring Williams' No Good Gofers, from 1997.
Many of you have asked to see more pinball videos. So, here is a quick "close-up" of one particular machine in my collection. I hope you enjoy it and look for future installments coming soon.

Nice spida i got to play "no good gofers" once years ago on a cruiseship.Once i play it i was hooked on the game.Though i'm glad i did make it to the williams pinball hall of fame collection for PS3&360 it's still a blast to play.

[@weirdproq]

Fun Fact: I learned that 15 or so prototypes were made that had a boss or giant gopher that would of popped up from under the spinning golf ball, but Williams removed it for cost reasons. I think this would have been very interesting.

[@ChrisMolyneaux93]

Unfortunately I haven't seen No Good Gofers in quite a few years now, which is sad because it is one of my favorite machines.

[@904PinballZine]

I just got a NGG yesterday, off to be shopped out tomorrow!

[@ChrisMolyneaux93]

Lucky you! Wish I had the money to own a pinball machine, let alone a bunch of them. No Good Gofers is definitely on my list of machines that I want to own, next to Revenge from Mars!

[@spida1a]

@modbradshaw Not many. Ironically, "none" of them are filmed. So.....ha ha....not sure when I will ever get back to get them shot. Thanks again!

[@gentleuterus]

Excellent video! I'm enjoying playing the simulated version of No Good Gofers on the 360. Its fun!

[@heavysaur]

wow that music in the intro so awesome....

[@MegaHowtoMan]

Im about ready to add this to my collection. My son really wants it. Hope its a keeper. I feel it has a great playfield design with top features. 3 flippers, spinning disc, captive ball, 4 ball multiball and hole in one shot. I like side pop bumpers too (This is like Tron ....)

[@avenuePad]

Yeah, I remember No Good Gofers. Very nice machine. Thanks for dishin' out these reviews so fast! :D

[@nlafavore]

Alright! So we got No Good Gofers up!

[@ikey1555]

[@Leo_Richie]

I will email you the screen shot I've got 53 million and not made it to 9holes but got 22million and made it to 10 go figure.. thanks Chris your channel has affected my life in a positive way and changed my "hobbies" from Bad ones to good ones, keep it going i can't get enough PINBALL VIDS !!!

[@jboypacman]

Another awesome video Chris i hope to run across this Pin in my travels so i can give it some play it looks fun.

[@RocketLawnchair]

I'm always glad to see these video. They are insightful, entertaining, and show your love of pinball. One day I'll drop by and play your Turbo Grafx and pinball collection. ;)

[@spida1a]

@1sagari1 LOL. They were pains and FUN to beat up on ! Thanks for watching!

[@spida1a]

@Tacobot2017 Thanks my friend. I'm glad you enjoy it!

[@Tacobot2017]

Great video thanks for posting it. this is has to be my favorite pinball machine and its cool to hear a little history and yours looks great i hope i can afford one of my own someday.

[@modbradshaw]

Chris you rock! Not that many video reviews left to go!

[@TheCrulZ2348]

me and my best freind had tournements on this game at amini golf course too but now i have it on visual pinball along with other tables you own and those are the ones i usaly play the most

[@ChrisMolyneaux93]

I love this game as well. Funny enough the first time I played this machine was at a mini golf place called 402 Golfland. When I saw it, there was a game in action but the ball was stuck. After I tilted the machine, I decided to finish it. Luckily the last guy who played before it got stuck left it at a pretty good score. I eventually finished the game with the highest score recorded on that particular machine, so you can say it took a team of two effort to record a high score! Haha!

[@spida1a]

@spike1234567 Wohoo! Thank you for watching!

[@spida1a]

@OmegaM41 I had a Twilight Zone project game, yes. It is a good game. I might pick one up someday. :) Thanks for watching!

[@GKcoupe1]

Nice Collection,I love to watch your videos.I have an old Bally pinball Centaur II that I got from my friend,Pinball is doing well just need restoration.Greetings from Croatia!

[@spida1a]

@Gambenoful Very cool. Thanks!

[@nlafavore]

@Konuvis Yeah, when I hear that, I know it's Bucci's pinball!

[@duffysarcade412]

Great game and a great video! I own every Lawlor machine up to Road Show and NGG is definitely next on my list. You gave a great collection as well. I started in the hobby 5 years ago...and I wish it was earlier as maybe I could have afforded some of the greats that command huge prices today (MM, IJ, etc).

[@GrandmaDank]

These are awesome thanks for sharing

[@spida1a]

Ha ha. It's all fine my friend. I never heard of the app! I will definitely check it out for sure! Thanks for watching! :)

[@spida1a]

@GKcoupe1 Thanks so much. I appreciate it!!

[@spida1a]

@gentleuterus Is that the William's Pinball collection? I have it for the Wii (which doesn't have Gofers) and found it a pretty great representation of the games. You know? :) Thanks for watching!

[@spida1a]

Great stuff!

[@spida1a]

@TwigsInc Hey, you're welcome. Thanks for watching!!

[@Gambenoful]

Your videos are very well done as always. I'm also in the market for two pinball machines I hope to get one day. One is Taxi and the other is Corvette. Although I'm not a huge pinball player, I always loved those two machine cause I played the heck out of them when I was younger in my dads bowling alley.

[@TheKurtsPlaceChannel]

Nice video and fun to watch. Take care now.

[@spida1a]

@MrDebauch New Stern games have really "gone up" lately. In fact, I probably wouldn't buy one anymore, to be honest. They usually tend to go around the $4k mark new. You know? Thanks for watching!!

[@snoochpounder]

i love your videos.. starting to get into collecting as well. would u be able to recommend a good starter machine? or perhaps a real nice virtual pinball cab to get acquainted with certain tables and basically try before buy?

[@Leo_Richie]

the app is called pinball arcade .also i keep going back to watch you no good gofers pinball collection video when you say i wish it there were 18 holes i thought it was a kind of a wink wink wizard mode .but i swear when i played no good gofers because that's the free table this month i made it to 12 holes the dot matrix went from 1-9 to 10-18 I only got there once and i know that really add credibility to my story ....my score was only 37 million

[@spida1a]

@Xisme66 Ha ha . Sigh....I wish! :) Thanks for watching!

[@dondontruck]

Hello Spida, once again, many many thanks for your magnificient videos, I love pinball and you're one of the reasons i'm lovin' pinball more and more! I always wondered why don't have "Party zone", it's in my opinion one of the best tables ever...can you tell me about it if you already have played that table? And also, what are the tables you loved the most and you couldn't have in your collection? Thanks again my brother, Long live the Pinball!

[@spida1a]

@ChrisMolyneaux93 Ha!! Awesome.

[@ProjectReality64]

you sir are a pinball expert. My favorite pinball machine is the street fighter 2 table. Wish I could get one of those. Had the chance for a good price but the seller was sneaky and sold to someone else. :(

[@spida1a]

Wohoo! Awesome!

[@nlafavore]

@kory1280 Yeah. They definitely should be repainted, though. We don't want a mustache on the gofers!

[@spida1a]

@gohan4916 Ha ha. Yeah, I didn't have that one at the time...... :)

[@MrDebauch]

excellent vid as usual. How much do machines like that usually sell for brand new (like for game room owners etc)... I know there are piles of mechanical parts that are fine tunes and what not... but also because it is a commercial piece of equipment.

[@HeavyMetal82]

Hey Chris, what kind of clearcoat did you put on your gofers? I just got some NOS gofers and want to protect them for the long haul.

[@spida1a]

Honestly I haven't paid much attention to how much these are going for today. They usually range around $2k - $2.5 k. But, that was a while ago. :)

[@nlafavore]

@MrHitchcockFan He has White Water, Diner, Taxi, Funhouse, Pin*bot, Banzai Run, and The Getaway left to film.

[@cessnaace]

Great video. Sadly arcades around here usually only have one pinball machine each. Dave & Busters has none, which is a crime in my book. Williams' Star Wars Episode 1 is in more that one arcade, so there's not much variety. The newest machine we have is Stern's The Simpsons. Saved to Pinball & Pachinko playlist, and I've subbed. STAY AWESOME! :)

[@1sagari1]

My brothers buddy and I used to play this at 7-11 while supposedly looking for jobs!! I bet we lost hundreds of dollars trying to pay those damn gofers back with a stiff ball to the face!! Taunting little buggers!

[@spida1a]

Yeah, that would have been cool. They showed pictures of that years ago in PinGame Journal. Would have been neat like...a Boss Gopher! ha ha. Take care.

[@spida1a]

@kory1280 LOL! That's interesting. Oh well....welcome to pinball collecting my friend. Ten thousand lights that burn out every few games. :)

[@spida1a]

@BLACKROSEMF Yes there are. But, unfortunately you get nothing "new or exciting" for completing all 18. Thanks for watching. :)

[@DirtJutter]

31,724,260 (Android version) getting better... this is still the free-to-play table on Pinball Arcade.

[@HelloMyNameIsRED]

@pocketmego We can always hope, but I have been thinking of getting either 360 or Ps3 latley. They are somewhat cheap nowadays :)

[@metalcoola]

I could never own so man pinball machines :}

[@HelloMyNameIsRED]

@pocketmego I wanted to get that game for wii or PSP since those are the only two consoles that I own which that game was released for, but unfortunately neither of them didn't include neither Midevial Madness or No good gofers :(

[@TheCrulZ2348]

the funny thingis the first time iplayed this at a mini golf place

[@Leo_Richie]

the Stern Pinball app no good Gophers goes up to 18 holes

[@ArMoUrEdGhOsT]

I'm looking at buying this pinball I have seen one forsale but not sure how much there worth what would you pay for this pin

[@Leo_Richie]

got there please play the app i love your channel and i understand you probably know a little bit more about pinball than me and again I swear to God I would't make up this story just to get a rise out of you. I love your channel and please keep up the good work

[@Kryptojackjr]

Chris: Here we have No Good G- Buzz: Hey Clubfoot! Go pound some sand! Chris: Buzz, don't interrupt me. Bud: What? Both of us have a naughty personality remember? Chris: Just be quiet until I actually PLAY the game.

[@sae887]

how do u afford all of those machines and where do you keep them?

[@TheRealNTM]

*"SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR BALLS!"*

[@spida1a]

Stern Pinball App? I never heard of this. Cool. (I mean, this one does continue to go up beyond 9...you just don't get anything new for completing 18). :)

[@kindaaredneckkindaar]

YES YES YES YES!!!!!!

[@Leo_Richie]

hay Chris it has once again Ben confirmed my score was only 22 million but i got a couple of advance to holes prizes.this time i made it to the Hole 10 and i was given 2 million and the it gave me a hole in one prize without getting a hole in one,this app seems to be very accurate,well yout would probably be a better judge at that,Im going to read my phone manual to figure out how to screen capture a and take a pic the next time i get over 9 holes

[@BLACKROSEMF]

Chris ,, Play some more bro . Yr right , after completing 9 holes, you go for the Hole n 1 Challenge.. But I was play-n last-night and i was on Hole 13 , The DMD said so.. Not sure if it goes to 18,, but i will find out..

[@nlafavore]

This one's on 5 balls, I notice.

[@vindomramvindomram4394]

Me - Is this an investment worth going for I mean pinball machines just are pretty expensive I'm just wondering if their is more bang than the buck. Sorry for being a headache.

[@gohan4916]

You should have gotten rid of johnny numomic (sorry if spelled that wrong)

[@ioannishussein8038]

0:10: (Buzz) Say goodbye to your balls! 0:22 and 0:23: No Good Gofers. (Laughs) 0:24 and 0:25: (Buzz) (Pops out) Go pound some sand, (0:26) SPUD!

[@starsoldier1]

Heh heh just saw that gofer get hit in the face there.

[@OldSchoolNYCGamer]

I remember this game for a hot minute, the retarded taunting really turned me off to the game. The gameplay is good minus the gofer. Kudos on the detailed review on this = )

[@spida1a]

@FletcherHabit Not rich. Good at saving, making smart investments and not wasting my money (though some would say I waste it quite a bit on my hobby....ha ha). :)

[@mustachiogamesnmore5290]

"Say good bye to your balls" I wanna say something but not here.

[@henriquedearruda8902]

Gofers that make negative comment hu?
