New York

1976opdb · GrlPK-MJkEl

'New York' is a special add-a-ball version of the 2-player Gottlieb's 1976 'Pioneer' that was made in celebration of the 1976 lifting of the laws that had banned pinball in New York City. The 4-player replay version is Gottlieb's 1975 'Spirit of 76'. As this game was essentially a conversion of the replay game, the half-moon credit window is still present on the backglass but is decorated with stars, visible to the player. The Replay Unit was not removed from the examples of this game that we have seen. We previously showed a date for this game of July 26, 1976. The new date is per Gottlieb documentation.

Plunge for "C" lane - only available from up top - completing A,B,C,D,E lanes for double bonus

Unfortunately your main bonus maker is drops as you learn the game. Would suggest avoiding the middle at all costs until letters and drops are cleared. Best advice on shots: aim for the middle drops first and then chip the outer ones

Also game is set up to be floaty. If shots are drifting left or right towards the inlanes, they will more than likely roll to the outlanes. Would suggest some light nudging if you recognize this
