Boof Head Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Just picked this up from the transport company. Orbitor 1. Very unique game that I saw on you tube a while back. Now the long drive home. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boof Head Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 I’ve never played it but it looks really different. My mate who came for the drive picked up a scared stiff as well so double pin day! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Bumper Pete Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Weird game, but would like to play it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Great double pick up Ash (even if the 2nd one is for a mate). I played an Orbitor 1 recently while overseas - whacky fun game to play but might get sick of it after a while Sent from my SM-G800Y using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping I’ve got enough pins to be able to carry this one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defender Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I played this when it was new. Being a teenage pinball player, I thought it was too weird, but now I have more ability, it would be good to give it another try.

Boof Head Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 Finally got 5 mins to take a good look. She’s up and running. Has sounds but no speech and a big hum through the speaker. This was written on the lockdown receiver. Wonder if it means 13 of 20 that came to oz? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaybee Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 New pin day. I had one of these many years ago . Is there any evidence of the wiring loom to headbox being rejoined back together again. My one one was cut and rejoined once upon a time Sent from my iPhone using Aussie Arcade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Railways Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 I remember playing this title way back when and I thought WTF were they thinking???? Regardless of that Ash it looks like its a good example of a rare machine and I love low km's games. Personally it did my head in trying to play it and I'd love to see some of our #1 players have a crack at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny65 Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 You need to adjust your playing style that's for sure - I like that the ball can come back from below the flippers and hitting the targets at the top of the PF is not as easy as it seems Sent from my SM-G800Y using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boof Head Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 Can anyone help me here? I’ve got all sounds but no speech. I’m going to replace all the caps as the sound that is there isn’t the best. I found a thread on pinside that says the sb-300 needs this jumper for speech. Can anyone confirm this as mine doesn’t have it on there? Strange to be missing if it needed it. Here’s a little clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambo Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Craziest game I ever played as a kid when one arrived at Flashpoint in Penrith. I look forward to your updates and best of luck in fixing it Sent from my iPhone using Aussie Arcade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1966 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I can’t see what the rule play is what is the objective/goal to achieve when playing? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boof Head Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 New pin day. I can’t see what the rule play is what is the objective/goal to achieve when playing? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk From the minimal play I’ve had it seems the main objective is the length of ball time. There’s a timer that counts up but stops counting when you cradle the ball for to long or don’t score for a while. There’s a ball lock and multi ball can be started once the rear targets are all dropped. Sounds easy but is extremely hard to navigate through the spinning bumpers and curved playfield. There’s an extra ball that needs a certain number of hits to one of the slings(which don’t have a kicker in them) and this lights one target behind the top drops. You have to hit the ball through the spinner and hit the one target. Trust me, that is a bloody hard shot. Curved shot from the left flipper through the spinner on the right and back to the target roughly in the center. Doesn’t seem a lot to it but very challenging. Once I’ve got it all running correctly(speech) I’ll do a good video. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
