Highlights

  • Pin Lights Pro LED modules work with WPC games and Stern Spike 2, with up to 48 volt inputs and customizable flasher effects
  • Precision Flippers' Elite Flipper Bat is too light and makes live catches and drop catches impossible due to insufficient weight
  • Chicago Gaming remakes (specifically Medieval Madness) have flipper material similar to Precision Flippers that prevents proper live catching
  • A soundboard mod prototype uses the same drum beat and bass progression as Scott Denise's Total Nuclear Annihilation music
  • Warped Pinball offers add-on boards for classic machines with Wi-Fi, leaderboards, and score display on external TVs, supporting System 11, WPC, and Data East platforms
  • Back Alley Creations makes custom wood shooter housing covers and Jaws wood kits that are still in stock
  • Tim's video apron system replaces cardboard game instruction cards with video screens supporting attract mode, active mode, and menu mode
  • A mod vendor called 'Pinball Pimp' created banner decorations from WPC machine artwork by redesigning original Valley game artwork into rectangular banners
  • Christopher Franchie (Chris Ranchie) is running a new cabinet company called L Grand Cabinets specializing in 1970s-1980s era cabinet reproductions
  • Walt Wood was previously asked to leave TPF 2026 after being threatened with police being called regarding weapons in his bag

Notable quotes

We're partying at the Texas Pinball Festival. We've got our pin lights pros on some very gorgeous WPC games.
Jimmy from Pin Lights
I [] hate these flippers, dude. I [] hate them. You can't live catch on them.
Walt Wood
We need less video screens. So, stop putting more screens in the game, dude. We want to get away from this screen.
Walt Wood
Pinball is like a bucking bronco, man. And you're trying to get on top of it. Pinball is like riding a bull, and when you're in a flow state, screens don't help.
Walt Wood
That sounds like Total Nuclear Annihilation. That baseline is like Total Nuclear Annihilation. You can't slip music by me, dude. I will catch you every time.
Walt Wood
Franchie is the man, bro. He's one of the only dudes I met where I felt like a legit wholesome, good quality when I met this person.
Walt Wood
The pinball pimp shouldn't have man tits. You're the pinball pimp but you have [] manets. What is this?
Walt Wood
I have no faith in the future of humanity at all. At all. I think we are [] doomed.
Walt Wood
I'm mad for Scott. Scott will probably never even find out about this. I'm pissed off for Scott.
Walt Wood
Do you got weapons in your [] bag? I'm going to go call the cops on you.
