Hypothetical: Farsight announces Season 5 is the last. What needs to make the cut?

[HotHamBoy]

Scary thought, I know, but if there were only 7 tables left after Frankenstein, what 7 do you think are absolute-musts? Keep in mind that more than two additional licensed tables would be implausable, so pick at least 4 unlicensed games.

Personally, even knowing that FS might stop after Season 6 is terrifying to me. 17 remaining tables outside of whatever they make for the Stern app is just not enough, especially since the Stern App could potentially be some mobile-only free-to-play tragedy.

Personal choices of course (and all System 11)
- Mousin' Around
- Fire!
- Banzai Run
- Bally Game Show
- Police Force

licensed
- Back To The Future
- The Simpsons Pinball Party

But I hope FS won't announce season 5 is the last...

Great list but the toss up for me would be Jokerz over Police Force.

3 licensed tables:
- The Shadow
- Johnny Mnemonic
- Indy 500 or Corvette or Judge Dredd or Demolition Man

and 4 unlicensed tables:
- Kingpin
- Big Bang Bar
- Airborne
- Fireball

I My 3 liscenced would be
The Simpson's Pinball Party (Stern)
Demolition Man (Williams)
Lord Of The Rings or Monopoly (Both are Sterns)

My 4 Unliscenced would be
Mousin' Around (Bally)
Hurricane (Williams)
Big Bang Bar (Capcom)
Time Machine (Data East)

Here check out Demolition Man and tell me you wouldn't want this Awesome Pinball Game in this Collection. Go to about 7 Minutes and 55 Seconds and listen to Stallone and Snipes go at it, and tell me that's not one of the coolest things you've ever heard, because it is. http://youtu.be/bg4WW9dKN2Y

Leaving out Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure and Dr. Who out because they are not very likely to happen, I would choose (in order of my most wanted):

1. Spectrum
2. Eight Ball Deluxe
3. Banzai Run
4. Fathom
5. Catacomb
6. Paragon
7. Seawitch

Geez. Such a tough question to answer. Hopefully they do a Steve Jobs type movie on Bobby King and some of the profits are funneled to TPA and it runs indefinitely.

1. The Simpsons Pinball Party
2. Mousin' Around
3. Last Action Hero
4. Big Bang Bar
5. Banzai Run
6. Judge Dredd
7. Congo/Stargate

They can't stop, ever!

Banzai Run, Spectrum, Mousin' Around all seem in high demand, and of course Big Bang Bar for obvious reasons. Johnny Mnemonic, Demo Man, Shadow, Simpsons, LOTR seem to be the most demanded licensed games, very hard choice. Might as well right-off any future Stern games appearing in TPA, though. Personally my #1 licensed request is Judge Dredd, though I do like NASCAR and Indy 500.

Would also love to see Jokerz and Blackwater 100. I have a soft-spot for Rollergames. I like Congo and Stargate a lot, would be happy with either or both. I feel like Party Animal should be there to complete the Party series.

It really is tough, though. Potentially just 17 games remain... I would love to see 8BD, Fathom or Seawitch and I really hope at least one or two make it. I like early 80s tables. And system 11!

I'm with Invitro. Could substitute one unlicensed for Paragon though.

I might've put LotR and TSPP and other Sterns in mine, except that they're Stern and so undoubtably would appear in SPA instead of TPA now.

 

[Slam23]

I don't like the subject of this topic....

3 licensed tables (TSPP and LOTR excluded because of SPA, otherwise those with Indiana Jones):
- The Shadow '94 (Bally)
- Indiana Jones '93 (Williams)
- Star Wars '92 (Data East)

and 4 unlicensed tables:
- Big Bang Bar (for the rarity of it)
- World Cup Soccer (or is that a license?)
- Eight Ball Deluxe
- Operation: Thunder (guilty pleasure )

Ok, there's my 7

 

[invitro]

- Indiana Jones '93 (Williams)

If I'd never played IJ, I'd put it in my list after Shadow. But I've played IJ tons and tons and that's the only reason it's not in for me.

WCS is a mega extreme license. I actually think it might be one of the very biggest licenses in pinball, after the Disney & Marvel ones. It's a shame because it's an all-time classic. Thankfully I've played it so much that I'm personally ok without it.
