    Pin themes that haven't been made

    I'd love to see a hip-hop themed pinball (not just zombies rapping). Also I think it's time for a new hockey themed table. Also, I'd like to see someone make an actual pinball game out of a video pinball version (it wouldn't have to be the same playfield, of course). Revenge of the Gator, Alien...

    What Licenses Would You Like To See Made Into Pins?

    I like the Blues Brothers suggestion. I'd throw in Animal House too. Also MST3K. I had envisioned in the past what an MST table would be like. The DMD would show the scores (reversed out) with Joel/Mike & the Bots in the corner making random comments. "Light from these scores is just now...

    How did your love for pinball begin?

    I just remember how cool it was to hit a ball around and make the bells and other noises go off. (This would be late-70s.)

    Pinball After Dark

    Probably racy for their time... with the exception of the "alternate" art for Twin Win.

    Not to mention 2014 will be the 20th anniversary of DE's Tommy pinball!

    Funniest things in pinball

    That squirrel eating the ball (driving range shot) gets me every time. :D

    Checking in with my intro

    Greetings from schizo-weather Dallas... My name's Thomas, I'm currently 42, and I started playing pinball around the start of the Golden Age of Video Games, when pinball realized it wasn't the big man on campus anymore. When the local mall arcade had games like Black Hole, Black Knight, Vector...

    Table Pack #22 speculation

    So I won't have to "STAND UP AND FIGHT" next month? I'm guessing High Roller Casino or Riverboat Gambler.

    Are they going to explain Season 3 to fans before putting it on sale?

    Will there be one more 2-pack with Sorcerer in it? I myself liked that one, I remember when I played it IRL at a game room near my high school.

    The LEAST popular table you want to come to The Pinball Arcade

    Pinball Circus? Technically, it's the least popular... only 2 tables exist and only ONE of them is available to play. :)

    What are your most-wanted tables?

    Yeah, if it weren't for VP i'd be a lot more PO'd about that.

    Really Old Pinball Tables

    I'd like to see FS do a "Firsts" table pack (or table pack series). Baffle Ball, Ballyhoo, Humpty Dumpty (flippers), Nine Sisters (ramp), Army Navy (multiplayer), Balls-a-Poppin (multiball), Hayburners II (longer flippers), Caveman (video combo), Chicago Cubs (alphanumeric display) and...

    Gopher speech randomization?

    Anyone else think Bud's "choke" at the start of the Hole In One Challenge sounds like "OWW COCAINE"? I wonder if Williams ever got any negative feedback from that...

    Which of the TPA pins have you played the actual physical table?

    I've played everything IRL except Big Shot, Central Park, El Dorado, Genie, Goin Nuts and 1812. Some of them, like Cactus, Gorgar and Gofers, I managed to play only because they were at the Texas Pinball Festival.

    Tips for hitting the Hole-In-One...

    I've managed to hit that hole-in-one shot every once in a while, without having to bank it. There have been a couple times when, during multiball, I managed to shoot two balls at the same time into Bud's hole, and it awarded me a Super Jackpot.

    Unlicensed Top 100 IPDB/Pinside Tables still remaining

    Would High Speed II be a problem, since it would maybe count in the rock-band category (thanks to ZZ Top's "La Grange")?

    Single table releases - are they going to be the new normal?

    I started my pinball playing around 1980-81, when Black Hole, Black Knight and Vector were at my local mall arcade. So for me, if it's just bumpers and flippers in a basic playfield, I won't be interested. That said, an EM pinball game can be worth the $$$ if it's interesting enough (like...
