Roadshow : Welke souvernirs kopen?

[Dennis]

Om een zo hoog mogelijke score op een roadshow te halen. Welke souvenirs kopen en welke niet? Gebruikmaken van tradingpost bij laatste bal of niet?

[Richard Baan]

Alle souvenirs die wat waard zijn voor een city. Het zal je maar gebeuren dat je een goede laatste bal hebt.

[Dennis]

Oké bedankt voor je reactie maar welke zijn dat nou eigenlijk? En dan heb je nog zinc, lead en golden pinball dacht ik.

[Richard Baan]

Staat dat niet i een rulesheet op internet?
air freshener in ny enzo.
pinballs zijn ook wel lucratief. Eb of light eb.

[Richard Baan]

Overigens lijkt de rubber nose op roger sharpe.

[Dennis]

Air freshner in ieder geval kopen, want new york is de eerste stad. Waar blijven de reacties van de echte wedstrijdspelers?

[Richard Baan]

Omdat dat gewoon op internet staat. Google is your friend. Bovenste hit geeft:


<8> Souvenirs

Souvenirs are neat little toys that you can pick up during the game. You get one for free every time you collect a Skill Shot or Bob's Freebie Wheel award. You can also buy souvenirs (using points as your currency) from Bob's Souvenir Bunker, which is located at the Lock.

Bob's Bunker is lit by rolling through the Center Lane or the Outside Right Inlane. But in order to get the chance to buy something at Bob's, you must hit the Lock when nothing else is lit there, and when no mode is running.

When you hit the Skill Shot, you are awarded a random Souvenir (but this is adjustable - see section 17).

When you visit Bob's or collect a Bob's Freebie award, you see a cute picture of the facade of the Bunker, which has a changing sign in the window. The first time you visit Bob's, you also see the bulldozer pull up to the door and park (complete with hissing air brakes!).

The sign can be one of the following:

"Home of the Big Rubber Spears" (this is always the sign on your first visit)
"Free Water -- $1 a glass"
"Uranium Ore $3 a Chunk"
"Easy Credit -- Let's Talk"
"Today's Special: Explosives"
"Try Our Frosty Malts"
"Dozer Parts On Sale Today"
"Sale On Jackalopes"
"Secret Video Mode: BRRRLLRRL"
"Frenzy? Bwa haa ha ha!"
Then, a souvenir is picked at random, with an animation reminiscent of CFTBL's Snack Bar. You are then shown the price of the Souvenir. Press the left flipper to decline it, or the right flipper to buy it. There are also some joke souvenirs: New Car, Pretty Rocks, Ashtray, Breath Spray, Uranium, Ammunition, Toothpicks, Lawn Darts, Poker Chips, Paperweight, Wooden Indian, Antacid, Towelettes (for when you get that not-so-fresh feeling).

What are Souvenirs good for? Well, you can sell them back at Albuquerque (usually for more than what you paid), and you can get extra points at Fun With Bonus. If you have a souvenir AND have visited the associated city, you get 10M per souvenir. So, if you have played the Miami mode and have 2 suntan lotions, you get 20M.

Random quotes for buying a souvenir:

Ted: "There goes the paycheck again"
Ted: "The biggest bang for your buck, baby!"
Red: "Hey, that's neat!"
Red: "What a piece of JUNK"
Red: "We came here for THIS?"
Red: "What a waste of money!"
If you don't buy one, Red may say "Thank goodness!".
Here are the souvenirs:

Souvenir Cost City
Air Freshener 20M New York
Baggy Shorts 20M Seattle
Baseball Cap 5M Atlanta
Belt Buckle 3M Nashville
Box Kite 8M Kansas City
Bull Whip 7M
Coffee Mug 750K Ohio
Cowboy Hat 6M Dallas
Deck of Cards 10M Las Vegas
Fireworks 7M New Orleans
Fool's Gold 20M Denver (40M in LA-3 and earlier)
Key Chain 5M
Pennant 1M Chicago
Picture Plate 5M (see Easter Eggs)
Root Beer Mug 2M
Rubber Nose 50M
Rubber Spear 2M Minneapolis
Salt Shakers 750K Salt Lake City
Sandals 12M San Francisco
Shot Glass ?
Sunglasses 8M Los Angeles
Suntan Lotion 20M Miami
T-Shirt 4M Albuquerque
Treasure Map 10M Butte
Wax Lips 15M


There are also three special Pinball souvenirs. They cannot be sold back at Albuquerque, but you get something right away when you buy them.

Lead Pinball 75M lights EB
Zinc Pinball 100M awards an EB
Gold Pinball 250M awards an EB and lights Special


There have been rumors of a Platinum Pinball and a Uranium Pinball.

If the sign in the window reads "Uranium Ore $3 a Chunk" quickly hit both flippers. (Here is another easter egg related to the number 3.) This starts Construction Mania, a 20-second mode with all targets worth 3M. If you start Construction Mania, you will not get a souvenir for that trip to Bob's.

You will never be offered a souvenir that costs more than you can afford. If buying a souvenir drops your score under the replay score, you will not be awarded another replay if you pass the replay score again.

Bedankt Richard. Ik dacht dat het een simpele kast was, maar het begint nu toch een aardige studie te worden!

[Richard Baan]

RS is zeker niet simpel. Daar zijn vele technieken mogelijk, om zaken te combineren, of schoten die je juist niet moet schieten. Probeer ook eens het target onder de linker bovenflipper...
