What about Wipe Out, the winter sports table? Seems nobody ever remembers this one. It's winter at the other side of the world, and I'm freezing here today.
This one's real fun, probably my second favorite Gottlieb after Super Mario Bros.

It's one of the better baseball-themed tables as far as they go. The giant glove that catches you ball is pretty cool.
Looks like it's gonna be the season of sports tables (being the year of the olympics and all), but did A.G. ruin World Cup Soccer's chances of showing up, or there's still a...
I don't think it's too bad, played it a few times IRL and I actually liked it. A baseball-themed table is something new, I guess
But it's a sports table that is neither Banzai Run nor World Cup Soccer, so it's a bit of a disappointment.
I just hope it comes out today, because I was really looking forward to this table. And the newsletter hint, too!
Not to mention I got absolutely nothing to do this friday evening.
It's the Indy 500 stream, but they're not even playing the table because of bugs, they said. Instead they went for Dracula.
The ball keeps getting stuck in one of the ramps. It'll be fixed by tomorrow (...I hope).

That's how I'd like it to be, but I bet there'll be a few unexpected tables.
I actually like both TX and Haunted House, they're pretty good 80's-style tables as far as they go.
Gottlieb tables were a lot better when their rules were kept simple; the 90's ones are full of weird rules, bad DMD's and nonsensical playfields (I'm looking at you, Cue Ball Wizard and Rescue 911!).
