I never understood why pinball games had different names and themes, the gameplay is always identical, just different flashing lights and whatnot.  Yeah yeah, there is Devil's Crush, but that can't exist as a real pinball game.  It's a videogame based on pinball.

Well i wouldn't say that now mostly different layouts to the playfeild etc.Not to mention it's physics wich can be pretty random.Sure you can try to plan it out and think i'll get that ball to hit that ramp,but it doesn't all ways mean it will go there.

Apparently, it started out as a blond Marilyn but was changed for legal reasons; from the pinball database:

QuoteWe asked Roger Sharpe about the reason for this change. He replies:

Suffice it to say that we did have some limited run of machines featuring a 'blonde Marilyn' — and I don't know if these were for international only. However, we were informed that there were rights that needed to be secured in order to use Marilyn and the decision was made to just alter the artwork so that the female character was renamed 'Lola' for the main production run. If memory serves, and I can't say with certainty—there might be games that were manufactured with a brunette Lola and then a redheaded Lola.

     The first games in production were made with a blonde 'Marilyn' taxi passenger, a likeness of Marilyn Monroe. This was changed during production to be a darker-haired 'Lola', ostensibly a likeness of no one famous.

We asked Roger Sharpe about the reason for this change. He replies:

However, we were informed that there were rights that needed to be secured in order to use Marilyn and the decision was made to just alter the artwork so that the female character was renamed 'Lola' for the main production run. If memory serves, and I can't say with certainty—there might be games that were manufactured with a brunette Lola and then a redheaded Lola.

The changes needed to introduce 'Lola' include backglass art, playfield art, game software, and instruction card.

According to Mark Ritchie, as explained in the book The Pinball Compendium 1982 to Present, at least 200 sample games were in the process of being shipped with 'Marilyn' before the change had to be made. He also explained the name 'Lola' was taken from a 1970s song about a transvestite, chosen to befit her muscular arms as depicted on the backglass.
So I guess she's a tranny.

Definitely.  No code is going to be getting past the cleaner.  And the PBC won't work on a 32X.  Don't they know anything?  Even if it all could work, I'd be surprised if that shit powered up at all given how dirty it is.

The real reason why it wont work.... its missing the proper spacer for using the 32X on that genny 2!  And I'll bet the little rf shield clips are missing!
