This is one of the best documentary series on YouTube. You deserve so many more subs

I've never seen so many flavors of sarcasm combined together in one place as I have in this series. <br><br>Between all the multiball juggling and loop around callbacks, as well as the high score tables...it's the rare documentary that perfectly understands and captures the spirit of the subject matter.

Thought I was on a 100k sub channel judging by production quality, was very surprised seeing you had just 238 — now 239. A very interesting series and I don't even play pinball. Thanks YouTube

I was the absolute "Firepower" High Score king in Germany around 1980. When the ball left through the left or right lane, a well dosed knock with the according Flipper up, made the ball jump back into the game✌️😁

I played a <i>Flash!</i> when they were new, so my wife bought me one in 1995. We've had it since, and stays busy when friends--and now their kids and grandkids--come over. Great game!

Great job man. Ive been into pinball since I was a teen (40 now)😅. Seen and learned some new stuff and am even more hyped now. FK pinball is so awesome. Can't beat physical stuff.

These are wonderful videos. The perfect amount of sarcasm. I'm not really into pinball but I watch the Joe's Classic whatever pinball repair videos a lot just in the background, and it surprised me how many of these machines I recognize.

This series was phenomenal. I’m shocked your sub count so low compared to the quality you put into this. Keep making this great stuff, subscribed!

I love Pinball, the machines have taken over my house & all my friends think I lost my mind. Your speed of presentation, clips & humor is a refreshing way of educating & locking in viewers instead of putting us to sleep 💤 . Part 3 cannot come to soon. Continue in strength!
