1977 Bally Eight Ball #Pinball. It held the distinction as the most successful Flipper-Game with a run on 20,230 games. It held that position until 1992, when The Addams Family took over the top spot at 20,270 produced, followed with an additional 1,000 Special-Edition games produced. #Bally

1982 Bally Spectrum #Pinball. A sort of confusing game to the newbie. It’s based on the 1970 2-player board game Mastermind. According to IMDB: Of the 994 games made, less than 500 were sold. The rest were ultimately scrapped or salvaged. Have you played this game? Opinions? #Bally

1981 Gottlieb Black Hole #Pinball. A very difficult game to beat but oh so gorgeous. From IPDB: The multiball is one of the hardest around to get but rewarding when you do as it is possible to have 3 balls going in total on two different levels. Photo from the Pacific Pinball Museum. #Gottlieb

1981 Bally Flash Gordon #Pinball. A beautiful but very challenging game. From the collection of the Pacific Pinball Museum.

It was a Jet Pilot kind of day. #ForbiddenIsland #Tiki

RIP Drew Struzen.

Release the files.

1982 Varkon #Pinball. From IMDB: This is a pinball machine disguised as a video game. Flippers are operated by joysticks on the cp. Varkon is a two-level game, although each playfield has its own ball. The lower playfield is visible through a window in the upper playfield. An extremely rare game.

Hmmm…I wonder who the target audience is. #Arcade #SexSells

1973 #Atari Gotcha video game. The cabinet was designed by George Faraco, initially with the joysticks encased in pink domes meant to represent breasts, it was changed to use regular joysticks soon after release. #VideoGames #SexSells

1979 Stern Hot Hand #Pinball. A simple, but very fun early Stern game designed by legend Harry Williams. This example was at the 2025 California Extreme show. #CAX #Stern

"You never know what events are going to transpire to get you home." - Jim Lovell Jim Lovell, the astronaut who commanded the Apollo 13 mission, has passed away at 97. Lovell had an extensive career as a naval aviator, test pilot, and astronaut. 🔭🧪

I was fortunate enough to add this 1981 Williams Pharaoh #Pinball to the lineup a few days ago. Fun split level game with multi-ball and cool magna save.

It was an amazing day at work with an incredible crew. The team's professionalism and knowledge made our one-day setup, rehearsal, and live stream a success. Bonus points if you can guess the location! #Broadcast #LiveStream

1981 Bally Eight Ball Deluxe #Pinball. This game is in my all time top 10. Seen here at the 2025 California Extreme Show. #CAX

#RIP Ozzy.

1980 Bally Nitro Ground Shaker #Pinball. Designed by George Christian and art by Dave Christensen. A fast and fun early solid state game. Seen here at California Extreme 2025.

2018 Deadpool #Pinball. IMO, one of Sterns better efforts in the last 10 years. The Pro version is just as fun as the Premium.

#RIP #MarkSnow #XFiles

1962 Williams Friendship 7 #Pinball. Friendship 7' was the name of the space capsule that American astronaut John Glenn piloted into space and around the earth in 1962. As seen at the Golden State Pinball Festival.

1993 Williams Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure. This has a custom cabinet and legs resting inside of Adventure Land at Disneyland in California. #Pinball #IndianaJones

Walk thru of Forbidden Cove in San Diego. #TikiBar

The Grass Skirt never disappoints. #TikiTime

One of my all time favorite early solid state games. 1979 Williams Gorgar #Pinball. Gorgar was the first commercially produced game with speech. It had a vocabulary of seven words and had a heart beat sound that would speed up during longer game play.

1969 Chicago Coin ‘Pirate Gold’ #Pinball machine. An underrated game IMO. It’s nice to see Chicago Coin games at shows. This one was at the Golden State Pinball Festival earlier this month. #GSPF

Mad Max: Fury Road homebrew #Pinball at the Golden State Pinball Festival. To me, this was the top homebrew game of the show. Just a real badass game. #GSPF2025

Another rare one here at the Golden State Pinball Festival. 1982 Gottlieb Spirit #Pinball. A fun but tough game to beat. Designed by John Trudeau and art by Terry Doerzaph. Such a beautiful game.

Here’s a somewhat uncommon game. A 1982 Gottlieb Punk #Pinball. Interesting game. It’s currently at the Golden State Pinball Festival (May 16-18). Come on out and play stuff you don’t get to see everyday.

The Golden State Pinball Festival is May 16-18 located in Lodi, Ca. Come on out and play some #Pinball. Here’s a few shots from the 2024 show.

#Corvette love❤️

1977 Gottlieb Team One #Pinball. This is the add-a-ball version of Gottlieb’s 1975 Abra Ca Dabra with different artwork.

1954 Genco One or Two-Player Basketball. From Pinrepair.com: Each player alternates shots, as balls are automatically fed to the players from the center ball tube. If player is not turned to collect the ball from the loading tube, the shot dribbles by and is lost. Not a #Pinball

1978 Gottlieb ‘Eye of the Tiger’ EM #Pinball. This was released during the EM switch to Solid State pinball. Only 732 games made of the 2 player. 952 4 player games were produced under the ‘Sinbad’ name and 12,000 Solid State ‘Sinbad’ games were produced. From the collection of Dan Fontes.

1977 Gottlieb Centigrade 37 #Pinball. I just love the art package on this one.

1951 A-B-C #Bingo. Instead of the 25 holes in a pinball cabinet, the game resembles a roulette wheel but it does not spin. Video in the comments. Not a #Pinball.

One from the game room. 1974 Gottlieb Sky Jump wedge head #Pinball. Love this game.

It’s a gas at the Willow Glen Cars and Coffee. #HotRod
