Videos (part 5): Pinball Symphony All-Score Supercut, arcade scenes ZIP file, and more

I re-watched the pinball reels supercut and was reminded that I should probably do another video post.

First up, here is that 8.5 minute reels-only supercut of what was an over 16 hours long pinball-only supercut that was/is shown on loop at the North Star pinball bar.  it can't be embedded, so be sure to click through and watch it on Vimeo.  Video created by James over at pinballspotting.

To my readers in the USA: This blog stands in protest against the moral panic directed at trans people, and the horrific eliminationist policies being enacted to remove trans people from society. 

It is critical to note that the USA is now entirely unsafe for travel for any trans, nonbinary, or gender nonconforming people.  The USA government has gone full nazi, confiscating passports, denying healthcare, and telling LGBTQ people that they are to be actively targeted.
