1996 Goldeneye Pinball Machine by Sega

Popis

1996 Goldeneye Pinball Machine by Sega. This 1996 offering from Sega is a worthy tribute to the Bond movie that inspired it, and a highly entertaining game in its own right. Pinball aficianados rate Goldeneye as one of the company’s best machines, with the playfield toys, cool graphics and fast moving gameplay singled out for particular praise. It was launched with the slogan, “Sega Pinball’s Got A New Game Worth It’s Weight In Gold”, and for once the marketing men weren’t exaggerating.
The overall design, by Ward Pemberton and Paul Faris, is very busy inside and out, which means that there’s plenty left to discover after your initial introduction to the machine. Check out the ball launch, which instead of the usual plunger is a actually a pistol mounted on the front of the cabinet. Pull the trigger and you’re licensed to kill!
The play field toys include a tank, a helicopter, and a magnetic satellite radar dish with ball lock. This table accommodates up to 6 players and has 5 really cool multi-balls too, not to mention terrific audio which incorporates the classic Bond theme music.
Following a painstaking restoration by Pinballs Tycoon’s engineers this machine has been returned to its former glory and as a result of our hard work is now in excellent playing condition. It really is great fun!
Allow us to explain how and why we go to such extreme lengths when repairing and restoring vintage games.
Over the years we are fortunate enough to have gathered together a select few individuals whose enthusiasm for jukeboxes, pinball machines and vintage arcade games ensures that they are never less than 100% committed to the task in hand. They quite simply love breathing new life into old circuitry and want to see as many of these classic pieces preserved for future generations as possible.
Not for them the perfunctory checklists and proverbial ‘tyre kicking’ which pass for an inspection at other dealers but instead an unflinching determination to get to grips with the detail. This usually begins with a thorough strip down of the machine and a forensic examination of the internal workings. They’ll be aware of the particular quirks and foibles of any given piece and instead of just replacing failed parts they’ll always go the extra mile, swapping out components which are likely to fail in the near future.
An obvious comparison would be between a classic car which remains on show in a garage and one that you can actually enjoy driving.
