  • Big Bang Bar had a brother? Who woulda guessed.
    Let's take a look Capcom's other lost pinball machine, Kingpin. We'll go over the history behind the table and maybe even the table itself. Who knows.
    Kingpin's pretty cool, or at least I think it's pretty cool. Either way I'm happy to share everything I could dig up around this would be Capcom classic.
    If you like pinball and also maybe want to see more pinball videos. Let me hear it. I'm always open to get into it :)
    Thanks for watching too. I know I've been real slow lately, but your guys' support means a lot (especially if you were actually willing to read this far)

    Everyone knows Zingy Bingy would have been a bestseller if Capcom would have had the balls to release it!

      Yer and the title can be considered inclusive and diverse with todays society after all they're teaching porn in pre-school and having minority community members like lgbtq giving dance lessons. Zingy Bingy would fit right in nicely, hell every Gender reassignment hospital should have 2 on every ward

    The same arcade had airborne, pinball magic, and flipper football. I also played breakshot too at a different arcade back in the day. Some of these pinballs were my favorites!

  • @brutalworldvidzproductions2647

    FINALLLYY..... was waiting for more PINBALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL... and some... ZINGY BINGY..

    Great video! Keep up the good work and ya, I’d be in on a Kingpin when/if it gets remade.

    Kingpin and Big Bang Bar really do deserve a genuine modern day remake, perhaps with some code updates. I love Stan Fukuoka's art on both of them. 90s, different, and awesome. I want them both--but not $25,000+ (each) want them.

    A good topic would be to create a video of the top 20 highest selling pins of all time and comment on why they sold so well. Layout, innovations, what pop culture was out there at the time, etc.

      Love your coverage and videos on the weird stuff.. I have several short videos of some rare stuff on my channel.. feel free to use it if you want to make a few more! Lol.. you already did Terriffic Lake but I git some video of it too!

    I have played Capcom Kingpin years ago at the former Nickel City Arcade in the Scripps Ranch neighborhood back in the mid-1990s. Nickel City was owned by Capcom at the time. Oddly enough it was next to Big Bang Bar.

    I love how the video is about Kingpin but everyone is obsessed with Zingy Bingy 😂

    Cool overview of Capcom's stuffs and the elusive Kingpin! I've played enough of Fish Tales on Pinball FX3 to appreciate criss-cross ramps, so it's nice that Kingpin has those, as well as other interesting things going onnnn. The non-competition contract was wild to hear about too, I was not ready for the Williams villain arc, haha
    Also oh my gosh, Zingy Bingy......... Rough that it was the last pinball-related thing Python did before scooting out of the scene!

    I like doing these spotlight videos of individual tables, doing some of the most unique/infamous ones would definitely make for a good series.

    • @bralex2670
      @bralex2670  Před 27 dny

      True. I think the only one i kinda dislike is bbb. But i dont even dislike it that much. Just like the others more. Either way huge shame capcom shut it down. They had so much potential

    Great Vid, thanks Bralex. Just finished the History of Pinball 4 part video this past weekend and that is PURE GOLD! Keep it up dude! Hey, I'd think an interesting video to research for and put out there could be the Best "N" places to play pinball before you die (with "N" being how many you think it's work tracking. and it could be in the US and/or in Europe?)! Y'all talk about how many runs a certain table had, well, of those, how many are still in working conditions and available to the general public? I visited Portal Pinball Arcade in Acworth (north of Atlanta) and they had some real gems there. the working conditions in some was questionable, but I had fun just seeing some of the flashing and beeping by themselves! (in no particular order): World Cup, Demolition Man, Tron, Metallica, Jurassic Park, Iron Maiden Legacy of the Beast, Star Wars, The Bride of Pinbot, Funhouse, Taxi, KokerZ, Terminator 2 Judgement Day, Junk Yard, the Simpsons Pinball Party, Medieval Madness, and many others. they also had several arcade games such as Dragon's Lair. Anywho, I think it could be interesting to know what cities have real gems worth visiting. Granted, any of these machines can go Kaput at any given time, so there's no guarantee any would still be "alive and kicking" when on can go visit them. But perhaps, you could focus on tracking: debatable all time "top 15" tables worth pursuing and where they are at.

    I kinda dig Flipper Football, actually. It's atypical and hate Tom Green on the backglass, but I can see why Capcom thought it was the better choice at the moment over Big Bang Bar. But nothing was going to save the company at that point... well, maybe Zingy Bingy. Python must've known they were going down in flames while presenting it. The flipper extends!

    Big bang bar is good I wouldn't say it's amazing but the theming and art really carry it. I play it at the VFW show in Michigan whenever it's open

    Someone needs to make a Zingy Bingy VPX table. :D

    • @aflhabalafhabab

      Then someone better find a ROM for the table.

    A history of virtual pinball vid would be super cool when you feel like making more pinball content. As someone who got into pins after playing Bally/Williams tables on pinball FX 3 it'd be neat to hear about how virtual pinball got where it is today.

    Awesome video! Kudos. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that Circus Maximus is dead. They let the trademark for Kingpin lapse. Some random guy from the Netherlands who owns a lot of Kingpin parts holds the trademark for the game now, but he's not affiliated with any manufacturer so that doesn't sound very promising.
