Crimefighter Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) Well this thing is approaching...anyone plan to go to this? I may be stuck going Friday only to make a mad dash back home Saturday afternoon for other committments. Game list thus far -- what they need a bit more of is arcade games...there's been a 80-20% spread between pins and arcades every year or so. http://supershow.popbumper.com/gamelist.html Edited August 4, 2008 by Crimefighter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimefighter Posted September 22, 2008 Author Share Posted September 22, 2008 Okay folks, the 4th annual Heartland show is in the books...this year there were over 90 pinball machines but shockingly only two video game machines! It was worth the trip, they had the new Batman pinball by Stern there as the new attraction, also a specially designed video pinball unit, a computer with two flat panel monitors rigged in a pinball casing by Future Pinball.
