Merchant Ambassador Electronic Arcade Pinball

very good i like

My Nephew liked it :)

I ordered this machine for my nephew for Christmas, at his request. The machine worked for one day and then broke (display stopped working). I returned it and bought him a new one. That one wouldn't even turn on! (we used several sets of new batteries)Defective both times, and my nephew was really disappointed. Buy something else!

Other 5 star reviews are on point. A huge issue gives me pause on a 100% recommendation. The plunger that kicks the ball into the playfield is super weak. 9 out of 10 times using the plunger results in the ball being kicked halfway up the ball alley and then back down to the plunger. The game mode itself is so short that you will be spending more time trying to get the ball into play than actual playtime. I thought it might have been a leveling issue but that's not the case, If I raise the front end higher, the over all incline of the machine is to shallow and the ball gets stuck more often on the kickers and bumpers. So I think the legs that came with the machine is fine.Heck the more I write about it the more I'm starting to think I should return it. If it was 15bucks it would be a steal of a deal. at 30 bucks I think I need to consider a return. I don't think it would be easy to replace the plunger with a better spring. Looking at the underside of the machine. It could be a huge hassle to get it back together.

NOTE - this game works best on a sturdy, level surface - it has the tilt function that was instantly triggered when I tried it on an uneven surface, and then on a small table that was not real steady. It really only performs well if you get this part nailed. Once I did that, it has worked flawlessly.Man! I'm seriously impressed! For something so in expensive this game DELIVERS A TON OF FUN. I grew up in the '60's & '70s when pinball machines were THE THING. This little rascal delivers a big machine experience I just would not have dreamed it ever would. It is, of course, small (tabletop) and the overall pinball machine layout is super-basic but it's just right for the game's size. I like this game too, too much!Again, in my personal experience, I immediately fell into that pinball playing mode when starting using this thing and... I had a very hard time stopping play! Addictive :)

I have always been a fan of pinball and I love this pinball machine. The only thing is, the ball can fall through the little like cracks it has and you can't do anything about it. Apparently, most pinballs are like this but I don't like it like that. I would like it if it didn't have those little crack things. Also, it costs 60 dollars! That is such a high price point, and we couldn't find anything else like it so we had to buy this. On the box it literally says that it costs 30 dollars. :| So it is fun to play and I like it but it has those issues. P.S my high score on it is 3000.

The media could not be loaded. I did not see the machine since I had Amazon deliver it for my darling nephew Jack’s 4th birthday. It was a screeming hit to him and his two older sisters. (Sharing time will be an issue!). The 2nd photo is a video but Amazon won’t allow 2 videos so I made it into a snap photo. The lights are bright and the noise level is not overwhelming. It was hard to choose one based on photos only, but I think I got it right. It is a well loved game and is beautiful and well worth the money.

This was a reasonably cool pinball machine for the price. It had troubles from the start though. It didn't fully turn on at the start of the game and it only lasted 10 games before the internal mechanics stop working entirely. So sad.
