Following an article in the Novem-
ber '95 issue of S'I] by Evan Wessel
which was critical of Dynamo re-
placement hockey playfield costs, Dy-
namo replies:
"In response to your article on
the increasing cost of Dynamo
Hockey playfields, and in sup-
port of the amusement operators,
Dynamo has decreased the cost
of the replacement playfields."

I do have to say that I like the
older OBA acceptor better than
a CBA. It is a "no brainer" to re-
pair usually and 95% of it's prob-
lems could be done up by a route
man. When Rowe started using
the CBA acceptor in the jukes I
asked them why, their answer: "It
is a better acceptor and we pro-
vide it with a 2 year warranty in-
stead of 1 year like an OBA."

What the hell is it with pinball
manufacturers? Why do they feel
the need to have women with
34DDD breasts popping out of
their clothes on all games these
days? Are there really that many
undersexed 16 year old boys that
will only play a game because of
these pictures?
Most pinball players are male
anyway; why not stick Henry
Rollins in Speedos on a game or
two to attract the female players?
Baywatch. Now there's a joke; and
the game isn't all that great either.
Do I really want to see bimbos
in bathing suits to see if I got a
match? Does anybody? (Same
gripe goes for the lame match on
Guns n' Roses.)
Theatre of Magic. Great theme that
doesn't really call for females (ex-
cept perhaps for the levitating
woman illusion), yet there's a
chick with enormous breasts on
the backglass. Why why WHY??
