Hello,
Anyone have any opinions/ price range on a Bally City Slickers pin? Only
300? made maybe cuz it blows or what?

it's an "ok" game. Cool sound effects. No speech and I think multiball but
can't remember.
I played it at Texas 2004, PAPA 9, and in Vegas at the Pinball Fantasy show.
I wouldn't pay top dollar for it. Nice art though.

I had one for a few months. It has a flipper in the middle of the game
that directs the ball to the outhole. As I remember, the game was
originally designed with an external cord with a button on the end that
activated that flipper. The idea was for the opposing player to try to
drain your ball. I believe that on test people were ripping the cable
out of the cabinet so that idea was scrapped in favor of having the
death flipper operate on it's own. Nice looking game but very boring.

but that's not all. I think City Slicker uses a special MPU, so you can't
just put in an Ultimate MPU if the board croaks on this game. I think?

Nothing special, great backglass art. Had one for 6 months about 4 years
ago, sold it for what I paid, $500 here in San Diego

The game runs on the 6803 series boards which are different than the common
35 series boards and the Ultimate MPU....but the 6803 series game boards are
still available....Infact I think most people will throw them at you since
some of the games they come out of are not that desireable. Great artwork,
loved the backglass. The playfield layout is ok, but nothing special, I
thought that the small playfield with the one tiny flipper was boring since
it seemed like it would never end. Also the sounds seem terrible to me,
unless theres a different setting I did'nt know about for better sounds ?
