Pinball Documentary on PBS - anyone know the name?

[tremoloman2006]

I watched an AWESOME documentary on pinball that was shown on PBS several years ago. It was very in-depth and I recorded it to VHS. Unfortunately it has disappeared and I'm DYING to watch it again. It's not TILT: The Battle to Save Pinball, Pinball Passion, or The History of Pinball with Slash in it.

 

Anyone have any idea what this may have been and is it available on DVD?

 

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide!

Was it "Ball Saved"? Check out this torrent and look at number 7 on the list:

Awesome I am getting that torrent now. I'd like to see the other shows mentioned. Wondered where I can find them?

Speaking of pinball, has any pinball lover around here or elsewhere made a YouTube video talking about and showing why pinball is so great, with info similar to what you will find here:

I hope to find one with lots of close up shots of real pinball games in motion and not some guy just sitting in front of his web cam, droning on and on. It would also help if the video wasn't stuffed full of irritating music that will eventually get muted by YouTube. The pinball games have their own great sound effects and music, so no added music is necessary. If a good pinball video doesn't exist yet, does anybody feel like making one? I'd like to embed it on my web site on a couple of pages to help promote pinball love.

The History of Pinball (the one mentioned that has Slash...Looks to be VHS only since it's from '97):

Tilt was on that torrent I linked earlier, but I'd recommend buying the dvd since it has hours of interviews that weren't in the full film (which I enjoyed better than the movie itself). I still need to buy Passion for Pinball and The History of Pinball; I love video game and pinball history documentaries.
