Reasons We Like This Game:  This is the first of two Jurassic Park pinball machines made.  (Jurassic Park by Data East 1993 and Jurassic Park The Lost World by Sega Pinball in 1997.)  Jurassic Park has wonderful artwork and graphics from the award winning movie, and features voices from all of the main characters as well.  One of the best features of the game is the big dinosaur on the playfield. He moves left and right and will pick up and swallow the ball with the magnet inside his mouth!  It's a pretty neat trick and lots of fun to watch! Jurassic Park has three flippers, a very cool ramp shot, and a full blown SIX ball multi-ball!  The game also features a captive ball that you hit to score addition points!

Since dinosaurs are big, the game is not complete without a vibration motor that  vibrates during various dinosaurs modes!  The motor is programmed in a special way so that the machine feels like one dinosaur is stomping around in some modes, and a full blown dino attack in others!  The wizard mode is tough to reach and totally insane!  We won’t tell you what happens here because we want it to be a surprise...

Jurassic Park is a great game for adults and kids alike and is a perfect game for the family environment!  It features a near perfect balance of hard shots and easy shots along with an equal amount of left shots to right shots. It features a three ball multi-ball and FOUR different types of multi-ball play!   We're giving away a secret here, but you'll get an insane SIX ball multi-ball once you get to the wizard mode!  Jurassic Park is destined to be a classic and a collectible, and is fun for the whole family

Special Features:  Jurassic Park pinball is one of the few games that has a great cult following.  From a collectors standpoint, games tend to hold or increase in value over the years.  Jurassic Park has a dinosaur on the playfield that actually works, and is the only game ever created with this feature. Not only is the dinosaur motorized, but it actually comes down onto playfield to pick up the ball in his mouth, then swallows it!  The game also features some great video modes and  awesome dot matrix animation on the DMD display that was way ahead of it's time!  Finally, Jurassic Park is one of the few games created with a shaker motor to make the whole machine vibrate! (WWF Royal Rumble, Earthshaker, and Road Show also have this same type of motor). The programming of the motor is quite unique, as It really makes you feel like the dinosaur is in the same room when the game vibrates! Licensed by Steven Spielberg Productions, it meets the high standards of products that carry his name.  With new movies still coming out, it will always remain a great collector’s item and solid investment throughout the years. All of the main characters are represented within the game, along with the theme song and musical score from the movie. The artwork is absolutely beautiful, and the sound effects and music are even better utilizing Data East’s patented BST 2000 stereo sound system! Fun for the whole family!

Unique Special Features:  Originally purchased new for a private collection, this machine is HUO (home use only), has never seen commercial use, and is in spectacular near mint condition!  Additionally, this game includes the super rare "stone" topper, which in nearly impossible to find in any condition.

As with all of our games, we have installed the latest rom revision. - Revision 1.0
