A new hope wizard mode

[skyway73]

Had another couple of goes at the Wizard mode today, first go I ran out of time before I even got close. Second time I lost count of the amount of hits I got in but it must have been close to 20 surely!! That timer is a bit tough man!!!

While I'm here I'll mention my thoughts on the table.

• Hidden skill shot is great, wish there were more secrets in the tables if only Easter Eggs. Or are there?...
• Starting the Missions by lighting the roll-overs is a refreshing change from hitting targets etc.
• The super-strength slingshots!!
• I like the bouncy ball physics round the outlanes, a quick nudge can save a drain.
• The reverse sunken playfield is fantastic! Fun to play and it looks so realistic, great job.
• The sound and the effect on the ball when the magnet flings you off up the centre. More magnets!!!
• The variety of the missions, my favourite is when you hit the Death Star! Great shot kid that was one in a million!

The bits I'm not so keen on:

• The 'Find Luke's X-Wing' minigame. Boring, especially after you have found the extra ball.
• The table has plenty of great flashing lights but as the whole table is set with such a high ambient light they really don't stand out. That's a shame.

Overall a lot of fun to play and a real challenge, great work as usual guys!

Yep! I got it a few times now.

Same. I seem to recall my ball going in two different holes for the hidden skill-shot.

On a side note for this table, has anyone else found the hidden Skill shot yet?

Once you choose your lane to hit, rather than go for that just use about half power on the plunger to land the ball halfway round the loop, it's pretty easy to hit every time. Award starts at 1 million and increases 500,000 every time you hit it, I just had it up to 4 million.

Wow 20! I had to be maybe 5-8 shots away I hit it a lot who knows maybe 2 shots away.
Oh well gotta fight to get back to Death Star.

Ok made it there 3 times recorded my third time for you tube. I failed.
I think I got 12-13 hits so maybe 7 away from trophy if 20 is magic number.

If you watch video something real funny and just coincidentally happened when I lost my second ball during the 3 ball multiball. I farted! Lol I didn't think the cell phone would pick that up but when I watched it , it was clearly audible

I had my first proper crack at this table today and reached Wizard mode twice on the same go, seems fairly easy to get to but obviously I failed to beat it both times. The shots are ok to hit but the timer is gonna be tight. I'll try again...

DOOD, DAT GAS lmao I finally had a good run on this table. Got to the wizard mode, and I swear I was only a few shots off from 20 hits or so. I think it was this multiball (wizard mode), but when you get down to two balls, a good technique to get hits is to hold one ball in the right flipper, and shoot the left main ramp with the other ball in the left flipper. Keep holding the right flipper, because the ball will come down and bounce over to the left. This may have been for Yavin, though, I can't remember.

*EDIT* That technique is for Yavin MB lol.

You have to see the Death Star blows up to get the trophy. Maybe 20 hits after the Death Star comes to the center position in the wizard mode.

Had a quick look on PSNProfiles.com to see how many players had this trophy, 0.00% worryingly...

Think I'll wait before going for this in case it's broken or something

Hmmm I only got to the wizard mode the other day. I already got the trophy though and it wasn't beating the wizard mode. I'm pretty sure both was attained as the little icons above the icon itself was there.

I got it beating the 6th scene. Could be a fluke but it's there.

No trophy for beating scene 6. You could just pick that as first mission I would guess. Thus no difficulty.
And there are three trophies to this table on Star Wars pinball not just two.

How many is kinda lot of?

The trophy pops up if you complete the wizard mode, when the Death Star blows up Kinda lot of shots needed, don't give up! Use the Force, Luke!

i lost some Time in Wizzardmode , cause i waited for the Trophie...
I did not loose the Ball, the Timer was on Zero & the Missions where all reseted , no second Try

Well there goes the theory of just living until time is up

It's gotta be a certain amount of shots then.
And then the next question is is it a total amount of shots going around the Death Star or is it a certain number for each of the 4 ramps that go around it?
