The Who's Tommy Pinball Wizard (Data East 1994) VPWMod

Sure plays a mean pinball!

I have played this digital version so much, that I have gone blind. 

It's become something of an obsession to me. 

My wife is tormented by my random outbursts of "Holiday darling!", as are the 2 cats - they don't really have a frame of reference, if I'm honest.

@Wylte - you're.  a.  pinball.  wizard.  I can't tell you how amazing this table is, and how much I absolutely adore it, because I am dumbstruck.  This table is an absolute work of art and I am so thankful to you and the rest of the VPW team who worked to create such a feast for the senses.  Although I have never seen this table in the wild, my gosh does it feel like a physical pin!  It is immediately apparent that this recreation is a labor of love, and to think that Wylte bought the physical pin and tuned this to perfection is such a gift to this community.

To all VPW Pinball Wizards involved in this alchemy, and from Soho down to Brighton, I say bravo and thank you!

-D

Thank you Wylte and all the colleagues at the VPW underground bunker !

Great release. I love this table.

Graphics, Physics, table sounds, all done in a superb way.

The Altsound is highly recommended.

Thank you 🙂👍

I haven't been able to find this in the wild myself, so, you kind of have to put your trust on vpx to give you a good experience. I had many problems hitting the upper ramp on the previous releases. On this it feels much more like what I would expect and all of a sudden Tommy became very enjoyable.

Come to expect a facelift when it has gone through the VPW discord and you guys did not disappoint. Looks great too !

Personally, I recommend the 400 rom. I've seen very odd things happening when 500 has been in use.

Thanks a bunch guys !

I would have never thought that I would like this table as much as I do. But, it is absolutely in my top 10 favorite tables for VPX- it  looks great, sounds great and plays great. What more can you ask? Combine this with the Color dmd and alt sound and it is fantastic. Thank you to everyone that has pushed this table to the top. Also appreciate Wylte for the last couple tweaks  getting it as close to the original as possible. 

This table

never really caught my eye until VPW decided to release this.

loving it so far.

the alt colour and sounds are highly recommended. 

Holy s*** this game is incredibly well done.  Amazing everything.  From a traditional pinball convert, the line has been officially blurred. It's insane how lifelike this has become.

I can't even fathom the talent it takes to achieve something of this magnitude.

It's all appreciated more than you all will ever know.

Thank you all.

Excelent work everybody. you made this gem even better. The playability has improved a lot and like the extra options in the script. Thank you all so much for your efforts. much appreciated.

Been playing the real table a lot lately, and man, did this update nail the emulation! Data East tables are almost universally underrated and this is one of their best. Brilliant work here! Thank you so much. 🎸

awesome update.... another table i wasnt really a big fan of that is now killer
the realism is uncanny, and makes it worth playing 

Can't stop playing, the feeling of playing a real pinball machine is amazing 👌

Well done Wylte and VPW team. One of my favorite tables. Proud to be a small part of the team. 

Here’s my gameplay video with wizard mode

Very beautiful! I played at least ten times in a row! Alt sound is a must for this one!

A table that I did not have in my collection but now it's a favorite!! Both the VPX and VR versions look, play and feel great (it plays perfect) and those slingshot physics!!! VP just keeps getting more and more realistic, thanks team.

Unable to get the table to work without tomy_500 rom. Which, I cannot find anywhere.

Thank you

Amazing work! Nice updates to the table. This is one of my favorites and you guys hit it out of the park 5 stars *****

Wow... simply an awesome update to an already nice table.

THANKS to ALL!

Thank you! There's almost no pinball table at where i live. This is one of my favorite tables

Amazing update of this table. I love that Stage Flippers are supported. BIG thank you

This is easily one of my favorite tables (Huge Who fan and Tommy fan in general), and this version outshines all previous ones amazingly! Im really enjoying it, thank you so much! Although I've only played it once in the wild and from what I can recall, this plays exactly the same. What an amazing table! I was able to see the broadway play 3 times and getting to hear that version of the music while playing pinball - awesome! Truly a work of art in my opinion. I had a hard time in the previous versions hitting some shots, but the physics on this version are perfect. Again, THANK YOU!

Wowzers! What an update.

Thanks for this update ❤️ 

amazing physics and superb feeling with this new update

Thank you

Merci pour cette mise à jour, la table est encore plus belle un super travail 

Thank you Pinball Gods!
