Re-assessing voting EMs

[weirdproq]

This is just an unofficial thread for you to vote on Electro-mechanical pinball tables that you would like to see in the Pinball Arcade. I would encourage you to watch gameplay footage of these tables first before voting, unless you have already watched a video on that table or have played it somewhere. This list includes the final top ten from the Most Wanted poll back in about 2012 and other tables from Microsoft Pinball Arcade and from ones I've seen that look fun.

edit:
Here's some links to videos of the games in order of this poll:

Hmm; I better vote later as I started checking out the tables at pinball database.
Nip it seems like fun and look great too.

Ah, checked them out a bit and maybe I should cleanup my votes as they cover almost half the suggested ones.
1. Slick Chicks looks real cool and being my oldest pick.
2. Fireball. Mostly trusting others that it supposedly the greatest thing since spam.
3. Nip it. Mostly because it looks nice and that croc. wow.
4. Wizard. Because Ann-Margarete...
5. Atlantis. Trying to slow down my picks but goes the other way. This too looks really nice!
6-9 Royal Flush because it looks like allot of skill is helpfull.
Centigrade sure is nice...

Yeah, too many.
Trying to weed out my favos now...
Also quick links to the tables would be a little icing on the cake for us lazy surfers (although I did check em out).

1. Slick Chick
2. Nip it
3. Centigrade

 

[Kolchak357]

Really tough for me as I have played and enjoy most on the list. But I went with...

1. Fireball
2. Centigrade 37
3. Surf Champ (just edged out Atlantis because I love a spinner shot)

My picks were:
Slick Chick
Fireball
Royal Flush

If this were an official poll, Jungle Lord would probably win. (I know, JL is a SS table, but Xenon was made in 1980 and won the pre-80's poll.)

I'd prefer "Whoa, Nellie-Big Juicy Melons", but you can't have everything!

 

[dave950lam]

Though the layouts are similiar, I voted Fast Draw and Spirit of '76. My third choice is Royal Flush.

1/ Centigrade 37
2/ Wizard
3/ Fireball

 

[Pinballwiz45b]

Fireball, Spirit of 76, and Space Mission were my picks.

I'd also like to see Nip-It (CHOMP), Royal Flush, and Wizard.

 

[Russell Bergman]

I chose Space Mission, Fireball, and Centigrade 37. It would of been interesting to put Gottlieb's Ace High from FarSight's Pinball Hall of Fame: The Gottlieb Collection in the poll.

 

[k88dad]

Spirit of 76, of course.

 

[Gorgar]

Jive Time, Atlantis and Royal Flush

Can anyone explain the appeal of Sprit of '76? I have that one in the Microsoft Pinball Arcade and even played it before IRL, and I just think it is average. Certainly not the #2 on this list.

 

[IGoFirstIndy]

Wizard
Space Mission
Royal Flush

I'd add Grand Prix, Pat Hand and Kiss

 

[Russell Bergman]

KISS has a digital display, which makes it a Solid State pinball machine.

 

[Snorzel]

C37, Fireball, Atlantis for me. I really hope the get around to making more EM's in TPA.

 

[Snorzel]

A clip of Ace is High would like an updated sim.

 

[Snorzel]

Triple Strike a game I saw mentioned on the forum looks good to me

 

[Snorzel]

Balls-a-poppin would really like this one

 

[Snorzel]

I would love to see any EM footage you guys recommend

 

[Iguana]

My picks are:

Royal Flush
Spirit of 76
Wizard

All were tables I played often back in the day, so mostly for nostalgia. Fireball was the first table I ever played, but never saw it again.
