Jurassic Park Tutorial

[@spblat]

With Lyman gone let’s take the opportunity to appreciate the legends of pinball who are still here. Bowen, thank you for your immeasurable contributions to pinball. ❤️

[@Nativesurvival]

Whenever Bowen explains a game to this level it makes me appreciate the game in a new way; sometimes a game never on my list gets added to track down for the collection. I really appreciate your knowledge, skill and generosity making these Bowen, and of course huge thanks to Marc for such a fine production. -Mitch

[@BackhandPinball]

I feel the same way, he can shine light onto a game I once had put to the side. Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching!!

[@Mark-hb5zf]

Thanks for highlighting the shots. That helps immensely, especially if the pin is new to me. More often than not, KZbinrs just point with their finger (several feet away) and say "shoot this"...and I have no idea what 'this' is, so highlighting makes all the difference.

[@TehAwesomer]

Agree a lot. ➡

[@TR4G]

Been watching a few different pinball explanation channels and I have to agree. The way he highlights the shots as he talking is a great help. I appreciate the video editing.

[@gsdlmj3450]

Plus this field is SO packed it's really tough to see what's going on in a video

[@CougarBen02]

He's my favorite player on this channel. Has a genuine love and glee for the joys of the game. Understands what's going on and has the presence of mind to explain it. Doesn't get too down on himself for his mistakes. Perfect.

[@Slick70]

Thanks for showing shots with arrows. Your videos are light years ahead of others.

[@jeremiahm1413]

Knew I liked the game before Bowen's tutorial. Bought it after his tutorial... JP Pro, BSD, Corvette, Walking Dead, Demo Man, Metallica, Iron Man.... his tutorials are dangerous to my wallet. Keep making more, please!!!

[@retrograded9184]

I have a JP Premium and after two months of owning it all I can say is that the outlanes are brutal. Make your shots because if you don't it's headed for an outlane/inlane. Because the top of the slingshots is significantly higher than the post between the inlane and outlane you are almost assured to drain in the outlane. I lowered the upper post from the middle to the lower adjustment hole and only changed my outlane drain from 90% to 80%. Still an awesome game if you hit your shots. Also, if your action button is lit when you're in a paddock you can push it to slow the dinosaur down a bit. I always use it on the T-REX. And when the ball is trapped via inlane solenoid during a paddock explanation you can drop the solenoid instantly by holding both flippers simultaneously. I hit some shots better when the ball is moving rather going from a ball held on a flipper. By holding both flippers as soon as you go up the right ramp the solenoid is down before the ball reaches it and you can just keep the flow going.

[@CaptainBZarre]

On the topic of outlanes, make sure to have Escape lit whenever possible. You qualify the target that lights it by rolling into the bumpers from the upper loop, and you have to shoot the target under a time limit.

[@rehoby]

Nobody does better tutorials! I learn so much from you. I own the pro and it is tricky to know the rules. This is so helpful. Also, JP is brutally hard. The shots are tight and hard. This game will test you.

[@filipsnell2705]

keep this tutorials comming!!

[@BackhandPinball]

Another one should be on the way shortly!!

[@thunderfan77]

RIP Lyman Sheats 😭😭😭

[@blindsportslover]

When did he pass away?

[@thunderfan77]

@@blindsportslover Either last night or earlier today. News is just spreading all over the pinball community

[@blindsportslover]

@@thunderfan77 goddamn. We are just losing celebrities and it's not even the end of the month. Anyway, didn't he do a lot of vocal work or design earlier pinball machines?

[@benlogan100]

Such a loss to the community. Thanks for all the great rulesets, LS

[@jeffdill]

@@blindsportslover Lyman is a coder. He did the code for Medieval Madness, Attack from Mars, The Walking Dead, Elvira House of Horrors, Batman 66, Metallica, so many great games.

[@honeyforce996]

I would have enjoyed pinball so much more as a kid if there were these kinds of explanations about the game objectives! Excellent videos

[@jimmynails8376]

Amazing to watch as always Bowen!! JP has been my go to game for over 12 months. So many different paths to take. Love it!!

[@saintsinister8597]

I recently found out there's a Stern Jurassic Park Pinball at a mall by my place. The first thing I did is look for your tutorial before I put a single quarter in that machine ! You are my guy Mr. Bowen for Pinball. luv your stuff. You are the voice of Pinball to me. keep up the great work !!

[@antonvlasjuk3079]

We have to get a tutorial of Stern´s Godzilla! This is an incredible game , just like Maiden, but Godzilla is FENOMENAL!!

[@ArkofCovenant]

You know a game is truly nuts when Bowen plays for 45 mins and doesn't get to some of the modes.

[@benlogan100]

Love these, Bowen. Thanks!

[@abigailhuchko6546]

I just started playing pinball about 2 months ago. These tutorials have been so helpful if you ever need any help in the pittsburgh area, I wanna learn more!!

[@CaptainBZarre]

A very frustrating game but a very fun game, once you get things going. Definitely not the most forgiving for newcomers but as an advanced player I'm fond of it.

[@MrTriplejaw]

Definitely. Feel like I am a decent player and game often left me frustrated. Don't feel so bad after watch Bowen struggle to shots and work hard to get control.

[@MrHoopz23]

Great tutorial! Watching you made me realize how much I suck at this game…

[@BackhandPinball]

I feel the same way, this game is hard to get control of and once you miss a shot you are back at square one. Bowen always making it look easy!

[@the4ktv616]

I've owned a Premium for longer than I should admit (based on my high score), and finally decided to learn some of the deeper rules. This is fantastic, thank you! You're an incredible player. I used to think the outlanes on this game are brutal, but that's only true if you brick shots. Elwin's designed a game that rewards precision.

[@robertmachen4364]

So awesome that Bowen does these tutorials. Thank you!

[@Codes__]

Great playthrough & explanation, as always! Have one on backorder, can't wait. Surprised you never staged the upper flipper: it makes it much easier to make the O shot when trapped up. I would love to see a part 2 where you get to all the deeper modes.

[@pjcolombo11]

The games have come a long ways from Air Aces, or Royal Flush! The local brewery just got a few games including this one, boy do I have a lot to learn! This is a wonderful help, I will no doubt watch it a few more times.

[@reeseexplains8935]

Thanks for these tutorials! There very helpful.

[@KILLINZ0MBIE5]

Love watching these bowin miss when you guys could upload more regularly but nothing beats your quality of tutorials.

[@BackhandPinball]

We are working on making them more consistent and regular now that the holidays have gone by, stay tuned!! Thanks for watching :)

[@user82938]

Decided to try learning JP again and lucky me, Bowen now has a video on it :) Thanks for everything you've taught me over the years.

[@TheMusicRoomWA]

40:51 "behind every great man, there is a woman" :)

[@benjaminmuratore9341]

I was honestly impressed by how smooth the T-Rex heads movement was.

[@johnk12345100]

Man does this help me! Thanks for doing this, now everything makes sense on this game! It may be the first real mechanical pinball machine I buy! I have a virtual pinball game on its way

[@NicholasDeOrio]

This tutorial is really good!

[@BackhandPinball]

LETS GET THESE DINOS!

[@benlogan4038]

Miss you guys!

[@SG25]

Best part was your reaction to invalid frenzy lol loved it

[@junior_pinball]

Every keith elwin game has a captive ball

[@jg7634]

Amazing content. I hope to see more in the future.

[@yfcplayer]

Now this is content

[@maje2610]

this game is insanely deep

[@travisjohnson6358]

Good old bowen I got to meet him when he came to Australia he loves 711 slushies

[@TR4G]

What a game!

[@Jhorel.93gs]

kkkk, it's so amazing, Pinball never die, thanks from Brasil!

[@jeffdill]

Really appreciate the walk through.

[@Mugen_4_lifeKRXR]

Do they have a playfield protector on their premium? Looks dimple free, although it could be the lighting. This is a game that will never leave my collection. Pretty much all of my elwin games will never leave. Nice game Bowen! Thanks for the great content.

[@loganq5152]

11:56 the lowest key Multimorphic Weird Al shoutout. I think this was before the announcement too

[@bvans6439]

@PAPApinball - it's unbelievable watching you play. I have to ask, for the novices here - maybe I'm the only one. What machine would you suggest is a good one to play, learn, and hone your skills?

[@jayducharme]

Did you say you were in Whalom, MA? I didn't know there was a pinball parlor left in the state, let alone that area. I searched for Jeff & Maisies Pinball Emporium but couldn't find it.

[@foundthingsifound]

Could be wrong but I am guessing it is a private home/collection

[@BackhandPinball]

There are definitely still some throughout the state but this was a private collection :)!

[@jayducharme]

@@BackhandPinball Aha! That explains it. Thanks.

[@cactushahaha]

this is so intense❤

[@johnk12345100]

Excellent! Two questions, is there a sensitivity to the till because it seems like the machine I play in the pinball arcade I frequent, I trigger that tilt warning with what I feel slight nudging. And do you have any tips to nudging that you can get away with and types of nudging you can't? Secondly, on the missiles, does that Target change you have to hit? Thank you great video

[@caraLi0n]

Tilt mechanism is a plumb line hanging down through a ring so it can swing about and hopefully not make contact. It can be adjusted ‘tightened’ so the widest part of the weight is in the ring so there’s less room to swing. That sucks if it’s a tight tilt in public setting imo

[@jameskeating1952]

Great demo!!!! You make it look easy 🥵

[@TheMusicRoomWA]

40:22 that Nedry is a loose cannon

[@TehAwesomer]

That was very informative. 👍

[@strells]

On my new JP Premium, the Nedry outlane lit is a ball save. It doesn't seem to be doing anything here. Older code?

[@paulopilha]

You are a beast!! OMG!

[@Vriess123]

What do you think Godzilla or Jp? Might buy one before too long, I've put a lot of hours into JP, fantastic game but pretty challenging. Havent played godzilla yet. '

[@user82938]

Godzilla is amazing. My favorite of the Elwin games, and the only pin I own. Depends on what you like, though. I think JP has more board-game like strategy.

Long live the new Republic Of Scotland. We also never got a referendum on English annexation and taxation of Scotland in 1703 and it is clear we will not in 2022. Brexit Labour is extinct in modern Scotland now.

[@FloydMaxwell]

Can't say I like the "action" / flow on this game
