Favorite video game based table

[Brian Clark]

Which video game based table are your favorites? Mine is probably Space Invaders, from the ones I have played. Joust sounds especially interesting with the 2p versus play.

I've only played SFII in real life and it was alright. Nothing too special, but still fun from what I remember.

Joust. Bar none. While I haven't played Defender yet or a good Q*Bert, I can't get enough of Vs. head to head pinball. I wish more companies did two player tables. Every year I go to PAPA there's always a crowd around the Joust machine (when it works) and people keep pumping money into it. If you got something like that in a bar you'd make some good money.

I'm a huge Joust fan, so now I've gotta try the table after reading that, Moon Jump.

I want to see Joust too. It sounds like an extremely fun table.

Man, looking at pics on ipdb, it would perfect on an iPad with 2 players (sitting across from each other of course, just like the real table). That would be absolutely incredible to see in TPA.

Holy shnikees! they made a Qbert table. But Street Fighter 2 is by far the best license and the one I'd want most

I love it

Doh. I forgot Mr. and Mrs. Pac-Man. That's one I like quite a bit. Probably one of the first pins with a mini game too.

I liked Q*Bert's Quest when I played it, but after watching a video, it looks like you can keep the ball in play for a long time if you are good at nudging and get used to the odd arrangement of bottom flippers.

Baby Pac Man... sadly omitted.

Paul Faris just flat out stealing the look for the Space Invaders pin from Alien & H.R. Giger, and killing it with the art package = easily the coolest of these.

Love the art of Space Invaders but never liked the game that much.

Defender is (for its time) a fantastic pin. Really frantic and challenging, much like the video game. Quite possibly my favourite Williams early-SS game. Shame they only made something like 300 of them.

Was going to say exactly that. It looks awesome, but I hated every second that I played it.
Joust looks awesome. It could be a cool iPad game, but I can't see it working on any other platform.

Yeah, I remember seeing that and thinking: Space Invaders seems reminiscent of something, but what? WHAT???

...Jonesy?

Seriously, this needs to happen, it would be great to have this in TPA for the novelty alone. Looks like a lot more fun than Pong.

Cant choose, cause i dont have any love for any of them.

It wouldn't work very well for consoles though.

Defender is my all-time favourite arcade game, but I didn't even know there was a pinball version until the last year or two, so obviously I'd have to have that.
