Triple Drain Pinball Podcast Ep 30: Neil McRae In The USA

“It's hard to tell you what you're missing. I think the market for pinball in Europe is so much smaller than in the U.S. And we don't have the venues that you have. We don't have the big tournaments that you guys have.”

“I would kill for something like that in Europe but it just doesn't exist... all-day local pinball on Twitch, everyone going for it.”

“The level of effort the Indisc guys put in... Carl wasn't very well over the Indisc weekend. And also he had some really bizarre hardware problem with his streaming rig that actually when he got it back, it didn't even boot. The machine's completely dead.”

“I've got two goals one to enjoy it and two to play as good as I could play and if that means I'm first hooray if that means I'm last that's also hooray”

“When it does go right, holy moly, is that an epic feeling. Yeah. I mean, it's just – it really is amazing when you go like, yes.”

“The best thing by far that I did was I just turned all my Stern games at home to, like, just murder pins... No ball save. There was no parachute. and no restarting games.”

“If you can turn your games at home into the most difficult games you'll ever see, it makes life a lot easier... If there's 10 other people not making that adjustment, you have the advantage right off the bat.”

“There's probably like a couple of people that you don't necessarily want to approach when they're in the middle of a game or something like that, just out of respect. But the vast majority of people are very cool, very approachable.”
