Here's another look at the largest pinball machine ever mass produced by Atari in 1979, it's Hercules! We played this during the 16th annual FunSpot tournament at ACAM, the American Classic Arcade Museum in Weirs Beach New Hampshire!

This game was rebuilt from the ground up and they even put in frosted LED lights to help brighten the game. The game famously uses a pool table cue ball due to it's large size. The flippers here on the one at FunSpot have tons of power, something lacking from many Hercules machines out there and the slingshots have even more! This is the way the game was meant to be played! It's still slower paced from games that are out today but it's still fun to give the game a play or two.
