New Pinball Machine Pickup - Data East WWF Royal Rumble Pinball!

[@cooltoy]

Who is your favorite WWF / WWE Superstar? Let me know in the comments below!

[@mikeyfoofoo]

Rowdy Roddy Piper. My favorite tag team was "The Bushwhackers."

[@djmajesticeclectic]

Tatanka during this era but overall RVD

[@SG25]

Hogan and demolition

[@cfshine78]

Bret "Hitman" Hart

[@residentevilumbrella2001]

Ted DiBiase Jr., Sheamus, The Miz, Alex Wright are my top 4 favorites.

[@Badfinger4]

Back in 2002 I was a Mormon missionary up in Duluth Minnesota. There was a local bowling alley that had this machine and I used to go play it there every Thursday, which was our only day off. I'd save up as much money as I could because I was broke and wanted to play this as much as I could. The memories!

[@djmajesticeclectic]

Oh wow this is a fantastic pickup. Many years back I got lucky and found a wrestlefest machine is great working condition for like $250 I believe. Always cool when you get a cool local pickup.

[@cooltoy]

Dang that is an absolute steal!

[@scottgraham586]

MACHO MAN, closely followed by The Ultimate Warrior! Very nice acquisition there!!!

[@cooltoy]

Great choices!

[@CompleteGeekTV]

Alrighty then. I didn't know this one was on your radar. Amazing pickup. Its such an awesome pinball and of course the theme. Looks incredible.

[@cooltoy]

Yeah it's a guilty please game for sure, and it's much more affordable than some of the other games on my list. The hunt continues for some of those other machines you and I have talked about.

[@chadberserk1050]

Awesome pick up. This table has long been in my Top 5 of "Wants". Looks absolutely fantastic.

[@cooltoy]

Nice, fingers crossed you can snagged one in the future

[@cfshine78]

This is amazing and a stellar pick up. I'm so impressed at how well it's held up! Thanks for sharing Doug. Now...when can I come over? lol

[@cooltoy]

lol as long as you're willing to put up with my crazy toddler you can swing by anytime 😂

[@GenGamesUniverse]

Mine has always been The Undertaker. That aura, that mystique of the gimmick, he had everything!

[@cooltoy]

Absolutely agree! Taker absolutely Sting are my all time faves

[@GenGamesUniverse]

@@cooltoy I'm glad Sting got his redemption and able to finish his story (no pun intended XD) in AEW compared to WWE. It was a shame that WWE wasted him just to say "haha that's the final nail in the coffin of dubya cee dubya!"

[@geneg136]

Congrats on another amazing acquisition! I’m a huge wrestling fan as well and do enjoy Royal Rumble and the Wrestlemania Pinball machines!

[@cooltoy]

Thank you kindly 👍

[@pj7342]

Very happy for you Doug. What a maneuver! Thanks for sharing.

[@cooltoy]

Thank you so much! It’s fun to have classic Vince callouts, you know before he became a super villain

[@ferdoggferland4207]

Cool machine. Played it many times. Data East always gets a bad rap but I like their machines. Star Wars (which I own) has always been my favorite DE pin. Definitely did a fantastic job shopping out the playfield. Happy Flippin!!

[@cooltoy]

Agreed, data east gets lots of flack but I love lots of their games. Star Wars is lots of fun!

[@hoofbite]

Wow beautiful machine! Looks like fun!!!

[@cooltoy]

It's a blast to play

[@RichieCavsRetrocade]

OHHHH YEAHHHHHH RANDY COOLTOY MAN! Nice one!

[@cooltoy]

It’s such a blast from the past hearing all the great macho man callouts on this game!

[@CC-fp4op]

Beautiful. Awesome machine. Have fun.

[@cooltoy]

Thanks 👍

[@siriactuallysara]

When I was young. I used to really like Andre the giant. And the demolish squad. And then when the undertaker and the ultimate warrior came around I loved them. Now looking back It has to be Randy macho man.

[@cooltoy]

Excellent choices all of them!

[@richardabkstorm9009]

This is excellent Doug! 💯👍🙏

[@cooltoy]

Thank you kindly!

[@Riz2336]

Never saw or played this one myself but considering the age that's in real good shape

[@remingtonA123]

Haven’t popped in to watch your vids in awhile good to see your almost at 50k subs , I subbed at 1.4k lol

[@cooltoy]

Thank you so much for the support, that means a ton to hear that!

[@keithwick6170]

Yes! Absolutely fantastic pinball!!

[@cooltoy]

It really is!

[@HitnRunTony]

This machine looks incredible

[@cooltoy]

Thanks man!

[@joewozniak2231]

Super nice. Didn’t know a topper even existed.

[@cooltoy]

yeah it's hard to find these days, most have been broken or damaged and tossed aside over the years

[@michaelpaulfx]

Gorgeous machine! Hope I can find one to play at Golden State this weekend

[@cooltoy]

Good luck, hopefully you can track one down

[@garydinsdale]

I echo what you're saying about that upper playfield. Mine has been off for months while I've been awaiting parts - I will be putting it back on soon and that is a job I am not looking forward to.

[@cooltoy]

@@garydinsdale I hope your knuckles come out unscathed, it’s a bugger

[@nickgerula]

The pin sound mod really brings this one to life.

[@cooltoy]

It’s great, I’ve put a pinsound board in a few machines now and it’s always a great gameplay experience

[@dubbachubba]

I own this game and love it! Nice work!

[@cooltoy]

Thanks!

[@willslamin4597]

Nice! Roddy Piper was my favourite

[@cooltoy]

One of the best wrestlers ever on the microphone!

[@SG25]

Such a fun game! Nice pick up.

[@cooltoy]

It really is a great game, I think too many people pass on it just because it’s wrestling themed.

[@mikeyfoofoo]

I play this regularly in VPX with a pup pack. The clips are a lot of fun.

[@cooltoy]

It’s really great, I’ve played that a lot and you’re right, those pup pack clips of the matches and wrestlers really bring the theme to a new level!

[@KING_KONK]

Amazing pickup ThugFresh anything can happen in the world wrestling federation

[@cooltoy]

Saturday nights for me growing up involved renting a ton of games and some WWF Coliseum home videos at Blockbuster!

[@Triggs-pg4kj]

That's a nice pinball machine!!

[@cooltoy]

it's so much fun to play and it has some really great call outs from Macho Man Randy Savage

[@Triggs-pg4kj]

@@cooltoy That's back when wrestling was good back in the 90's and 00's

[@isaias630]

This machine is amazing 🔥

[@cooltoy]

Ohhh Yeahhhh

[@kc5946]

Never knew this existed! Soo cool

[@cooltoy]

Yep, it's one of the gems from the early 90s. Data East released some really fun games back then.

[@legacy4L]

I got the same one! I love mine too

[@cooltoy]

Such a fun game!

[@Stemage]

Such a great game! POSSIBLY Data Easts best? I'm still partial to Torpedo Alley and Last Action Hero. But Royal Rumble is pretty much perfect.

[@cooltoy]

It's definitely top 3 Data East games in my eyes, there is just so much packed into this game that it's hard to count it out. Last Action Hero is also one of my faves from childhood. The movie is a guilty pleasure of mine for sure.

[@siriactuallysara]

This is really cool. Wish I had one

[@cooltoy]

Who's your favorite wrestler?

[@marshmallowmark]

Great grab!

[@cooltoy]

I'm super happy with it!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Nice pickup!!!

[@FlanFanNetwork]

Wow big win. Looks great

[@cooltoy]

Thank you so much!

[@kantidinda6218]

Amazing find! Not a huge wrestling fan but it's a fun game. Congrats.

[@cooltoy]

You going to be at expo again this year?

I love it!

[@cooltoy]

Thanks!

[@TrevorAWilliams]

I haven't seen this before - wow, what an amazing pinball machine!

[@cooltoy]

It really is! Glad I could show you something new

[@jrami223]

That's my favorite pinball game

[@cooltoy]

Awesome! You have great taste.

[@eetherealedouble]

Nice

[@cooltoy]

Thanks

[@realtalk2624]

Real rumble talk

[@cooltoy]

Ooooohhhhh Yeeeeaahhh

[@Vic_VP]

Awsome stuff, and yup that upper playfield is a B!tch!! What cpu rom version is your running? i just oprdered the 1.16 as mine has 1.13. anxious to see if it changes gameplay as on ball 3 you basically can just stack modes

[@cooltoy]

Mine is the 1.13 as well. I'm not sure what the changes are between the two versions. I did a quick search but wasn't ever able to find any breakdown of the changes between the code.

[@Vic_VP]

​@cooltoy me either haha I'll let you know what I discover 🤘

[@siriactuallysara]

I would love 1up arcade to do royal rumble series arcade cabinets

[@cooltoy]

That won’t ever happen sorry

[@aj1875]

Will the slingshot plastics from sterns wrestlemania le fit on this machine? I like to get the road warriors plastics and put them on this pin

[@cooltoy]

I would not expect the slingshot plastics to be interchangeable between the two different machines

[@LordCyler]

New pinballs every five hundred to six hundred thousand plays?

[@cooltoy]

@@LordCyler every 500

[@LordCyler]

@@cooltoy Just sounded funny how it came out and giving you a hard time :) Good review, thanks!
