#49 The Amazing Spider-Man - The Classic Pinball Podcast
Another customer game comes through Dave’s shop and they get to talk about it and then play a few games.
Kineticist’s take
The Classic Pinball Podcast explores Gottlieb's 1980 Amazing Spider-Man with hands-on gameplay and restoration details.
Synopsis
The The Classic Pinball Podcast features an in-depth discussion of Gottlieb's 1980 The Amazing Spider-Man pinball machine. Hosts George and Dave examine the game's design, artwork, mechanical quirks (particularly the weak spinner), and ruleset while playing multiple games. Dave has recently restored a customer's copy with LED upgrades and a Pascal board replacement to resolve reliability issues with the original Gottlieb System 80 boards. The episode reveals the community's uncertainty about the game's multiplier advancement mechanic, which neither host nor online sources adequately explain.
