I remember reading about someone at one of the pinball expos who had hooked up a leaf blower as the topper to a Whirlwind. Now you really can "Feel The Power Of The Wind!" :)

Original High Speed or Black Knight 2000 would be my first choices, but yes, slipping in one of the more sought-after EM tables this season would be welcome.

Driveway cheese? Isn't that something that Olive Garden offers to grate over your pasta?

I think you're playing it wrong. :)

+1 to all of that.

There are a lot of us that want it, and FarSight knows that a lot of us want it, and FarSight is reasonably sensitive to expressed demand for certain tables. So, it's likely they will make it for The Pinball Arcade sooner or later, but nothing is confirmed from them that they'll make it at all.

I do hope F-14 Tomcat and Red & Ted's Roadshow do end up getting considered (and built) in Season 4 if not soon enough for Season 3. I used to communicate through Facebook a lot more, and I still read FarSight's comments there once in a while. But the whiny, entitled little trolls that...

How about a mountain climbing theme? You could tour the worlds mountains (from easiest to hardest). Avalanche multi-ball. You could lock balls in a big carabiner toy. You could even collect an edelweiss for your love interest back down in the valley.

Jeff, you'll LOVE the Pacific Pinball Museum. I live across the bay from it, so i don't get to go as often as I like, but it's so much fun. After you pay admission, you can play all day for free, and the staff is very knowledgeable as well. I was actually able to convince my work to have the...

You're right that High Speed I & II are more similar than Black Knight and Black Knight 2000. That makes the imperative to release the first table all the more important.

That would make sense as FarSight would probably make more money off of both High Speed tables combined if they released the first one first (assuming they'll eventually release both at all). Lots of people bought and enjoyed Black Knight, but I would think fewer would have had Black Knight...

I'm hoping the next hint has words like "Great Velocity", or "Extreme Haste", or "Excessive Alacrity".

Antiquing/Collecting. It's quite popular these days from Antiques Roadshow to American Pickers to Storage Wars and the rest of the reality TV nonsense. Plus, it's a natural for pinball. You collect things via tons of different shots, targets, combos, etc.

The only additional Gottliebs that I would welcome to The Pinball Arcade are the old EM Gottliebs. If they're going to do any more EM machines at all, they should be from Gottlieb. That's when Gottlieb was better than anyone. But for SS and beyond, I couldn't agree more. We've already got...

Eight Ball Deluxe would be a good choice in there as well, but I'm not sure which table I would remove to include it (including either of the High Speed's).

If Jay and Bobby let me set the full slate for Season 3 after the already announced tables, I'd probably set it like this: Announced... Fish Tales Black Knight 2000 Who Dunnit? Junk Yard And then... High Speed F-14 Tomcat Earthshaker Red & Ted's Roadshow Cyclone High Speed II: The Getaway

SIN? What's that? Am I missing a reference?

For me, it started when our family would go up from the Bay Area to Lake Tahoe to visit my grandma. Usually, on the way, we would stop for lunch and amusement at Sam's Town in Cameron Park in the foothills of the Sierra. It doesn't exist any more, but back in the 1970's and early 1980's, they...

No, I'm not interested in The Pinball Arcade including new pinball tables at all. One of the biggest reasons I'm as much a fan of The Pinball Arcade as I am is nostalgia. The game play's fun, too, but playing, seeing and hearing what I remember from the real arcade is a huge appeal for me...

Great summary of all the updates. Thanks.
