Genesis Pinball Tutorial

[@clintbeacock7663]

Nice 🎉 Haven’t seen a new video in a while. Hope to see more of these in 2024. No one does it better than Bowen.

[@ashharvey8324]

Great to see you back doing these Bowen. Watching your tutorials was huge help for me a few years ago. I hope you continue on with this. Make it a full on thing. Every pin players loves these.

[@vision821k4]

True. I used to wreck on pinball arcade bc of this guy. I suck at real pinball though :( this guy is amazing though. damn.

[@P-Drum]

WOW ! That Robot sequence had me on the edge of my seat !!

[@jonleboeuf984]

Bowen is BACK! What better way to start 2024!!! Thanks for making my day, Bowen!!!

[@KarlLind]

Great game, absolutely amazing sound design and music and one of the best pinball magic moments ever.

[@5ushiBoy]

I thought PAPA died with deeproot pinball. Glad to see papa posting again.

When you complete a body part it randomly lights a ramp to start mulitball, sometimes you are lucky that if you complete legs or arms that will be the ramp it lights for multiball and will start the multiball. If you complete two body parts without starting the multiball it will light both ramps for multiball. If you shoot the vari target you get one letter in the body part that is most completed if you have a few that are the same level you get a letter in all that are the same completion level. If you go over an inlane roll over it will light the vari target for a short period and shooting it will give you a letter in all body parts. If you shoot the drops in order 1, 2, 3 it will give you a letter in all body parts. You only get an increased multiplier for a completed body part that is needed to build the robot. So if you complete arms twice without completing the robot it doesn't give you another PF multiplier for the second arms. So you have to actually complete the robot to increase your multipliers past 4x or 8x in the case of multiball. I have had a Gensis for years, restored and clear coated the pf on it, NOS plastics, and translight. I have made my own replacement PF windows and also make and sell them sometimes on pinside. I know the old gottliebs get a lot of hate but this will probably be the last pin I would ever sell. I think I have a gameplay video of my genesis on my youtube channel somewhere.

[@slowbar1]

Bowen makes it look so easy! I've played that exact copy of Genesis and those ramps are evil when you are a mere mortal.

[@Nightenstaff]

Genesis is a simple machine, but a fun one for sure. Nothing overly complicated and those big ole ramps can be a challenge to complete. Great machine for its era and a fun one still today.

[@brianhalverson2628]

Great machine! Happy to have a new video!!🤩

[@gamedisciple]

I cannot say how happy I am to see you guys back!!!

[@corycain7825]

Happy new year y'all! Best tutorials in pinball have returned, thank you Bowen!

[@masculineguy37]

I always was more of a Bally and Williams player but this one i played a lot in my favorite arcade. Love the collecting stuff and used a lot of flipper techniques like the alley pass in this game. A fairly simple but exciting game. Thanx for posting!

[@jtruant]

Wake up babe new Bowen video just dropped

[@willierants5880]

Loved it, thank you PAPApinball and Bowen. I hope you revisit a lot of the older videos where the quality is pretty Meh and there are not tutorials. Lots to choose from there.

[@ehyouman]

Nice to see you back, thanks for all your continued help!

[@dasbacon]

more videos from this spot! great production and awesome game. thanks bowen.

[@Bloody1234]

Glad to see you back.

[@jimmynails8376]

Thanks Bowen and team!!!! All time game

[@bencanfield]

The five clacks seems like it’s meant to mimic old EM machines - funny that they included it here

[@lifewater989]

Man is that robot doll exciting! How about Monte Carlo next? The other 80's John Trudeau obscure masterpiece with dead people on the backglass. Thanks for the tutorial Bowen!

[@TiltingT]

So happy to see these videos back!

[@monolyth421]

Welcome back Bowen!

[@OTTOgraphd]

Great tutorial and awesome gameplay as usual, thanks Bowen. MOAR!

[@MattTheSpratt]

The alt backglass of that table absolutely PUNKS the original translite!!

[@HAUB]

Great music, great sound and light!

[@darkwing7780]

Love how high that multiplier goes, was playing around with it one day thinking it would cap at like 32x and it did not...

[@SouthernMenace]

Glad to see these again =)

[@thezombiebiker]

More please!

[@th-os8736]

Happy new year man ! So happy

[@kluless5595]

Gorgeous table from the good old days before i was born/bone.

[@benlogan4038]

There he is!

[@petersutherland8694]

Pleased you’re back 👍🏻

[@DaveTheTrain]

You qualify a multiball every time you complete a body part. But if youre in a multiball when you complete one you won't get another immediately after. Plus multiball doubles whatever playfield multiplier you currently have.

[@Wheelcranker]

Love me some Genesis. Bring on the original translite though!

[@zionengine]

Nice how this game shares some music with "Hollywood Heat".

[@george-underwood]

He’s back!

[@YootubeUK]

I always love your tutorials Bowen! Those flippers look a little underpowered? It looks a little tough to make it to the top of the ramps?

[@DrBagPhD]

This is cool but where does my Sonic the Hedgehog game cart go? :p Excellent tutorial as always, thank you!

[@franekcernelc3346]

My Genesis has only one lit ramp and switching by slings or pops. I guess you can adjust it with switches on a circuit board. I tried some settings but not all. Inlane pass never drains on my game. I try to shoot vari-target as much as I can. If not, I miss it when needed to open the robot

[@jagababa]

cool music

[@andresbravo2003]

Oh god, it’s Genesis of Metropolis again?

[@IanJacobyandcompany]

Heck yeah, bowen back in the saddle.

[@IanJacobyandcompany]

As we all know, the human body is divided into three parts: brain, body, and legs.

[@bencollins9663]

Thanks.

[@user82938]

Those half ramps are so harsh. Wish the flippers were stronger on these.

[@S.J.C._Entertainment]

Do a Brunswick Aspen tutorial please that ruleset is brutal 🙏

[@paulguk]

This game is NOTHING without the original translite. One of the best in pinball history

[@pssstttchhh]

The custom translite my friend made me smokes every genesis translite combined including the original and its cheese factor

[@killerczar]

Good game

[@senseforsale]

I was expecting more Phil Collins.

[@crawlingamongthestars3736]

Haha, the Metropolis robot obviously influenced this game. Copyright infringement? Lol.

[@th-os8736]

Please James Bond

[@jinpayne]

Or Godzilla

[@StimpyThe1]

Great tutorial as always! I noticed they changed the (hideous) backglass on this game… understandably. The original one is awful.
