Gottlieb 1986 Genesis Pinball Gameplay

[@justimagine2403]

I have Strange Science and I always thought the wild robot down in the basement of this machine was so super cool. I have never seen one of these out in the real world though. Thanks for sharing!

I son’t think I recognise the Pinball table left from Genesis. Which one is that?

[@KeepItUpProd]

Looks good ! do you have reference for the clear pop bumpers ?

[@bills9703]

I used the standard Bally/Williams pop bumper bases, bodies and caps from Pinball Life: www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=327 www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=330 www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=331 And these bulbs from Comet in purple: www.cometpinball.com/product-p/2smdfd.htm

[@KeepItUpProd]

Thanks ! did it fit in the original holes or did you have to remake the holes ?

[@KeepItUpProd]

Thanks ! did it fit directly in the holes ? or did you need to drill the playfield ?

[@bills9703]

No playfield modification required.

I just installed new clear bumpers and leds, thanks to your links. Looks amazing! Thanks a lot. Was a bit harder than expected to install. Didn't realize I had cut and reconnect all the connections.

Fixing up a Genesis and I like the clear pop bumpers... Where did you find them?

[@gallimead]

Where did you get the clear ramps?. That should of been the choice when gottlieb built this. excellent!

[@bills9703]

The ramps came from Pinside member Freeplay 40. You can still buy them from him. pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/freeplay40-ramps

Yeah, the original pink ones were really ugly in that game.

[@Lofote]

Never liked the look of this pinball - with the transparent rams and bumpers it looks a bit better, but still this is not a beauty. But the music/soundtrack was far ahead of its time in my opinion. Also the sound effects, especially when its doing the jacobs ladder effect at the beginning of multiball. Just wow...

[@douro20]

This game actually used a speech synthesis chip (the SP0250) to generate some of the sounds. They were a bit behind the times when it came to sound technology. There were only a handful of games which had FM sound, and that was through the use of an auxiliary sound board.

Good job on the project, terrible game. 3 decades later and still a turd.

[@Lofote]

I loved this game.

[@8-bitBishop]

Lol this game is incredibly good.
