TPA Theme Variety - What's Missing?

[HotHamBoy]

The release of R911 has added a new theme to further diversify the TPA line-up, and a pretty unique one at that.

TPA is still missing some prevelant pinball themes, particularly traditional sports like Baseball, Football, Basketball, Hockey and Soccer (Atm).

What are some other pinball tables that would be a good theme to add to TPA? The sports games are so common that it's weird to me that TPA doesn't have more. Would like to see Jokerz and Strikes n Spares for sure.

I'd like to see a music themed pin. They've hinted in the past that Elvis could be possible. That would be cool with me.

Wolfson covers all sports, from horse racing to UFC.
Also stuff that I have never seen on TV, like the "Commonwealth Games".

Well, we already have Monster Bash, arguably the best music themed pin of all time.

I also really enjoy Elvis, but who knows if that will happen.

Also, since Alvin G games are a possibility now, they could always do Al's Garage Band Goes On a World Tour.

How about World Challenge Soccer?
WCS94 has right problem but WChS doesn't have I think. Problem is that WChS is a good table or not...

Eight Ball Deluxe....another pool theme would be nice.

 

[Michael DiFilippo]

Rollergames.

 

[Gorgar]

Jive Time

 

[MontanaFrank]

How about TV-Baseball. I remember playing that in real life. I would like to have one bat and ball pinball machine.

 

[canuck]

8 ball deluxe (or Sharkey) is a needed upgrade to Big Shot

 

[EldarOfSuburbia]

Not enough motor racing games, we only have Victory!! (I don't count HS/HS2, those are car chases, not racing ) How about Corvette (my #1 choice), Indy 500, NASCAR/Grand Prix (same table, different skins depending on North America or outside North America), Checkpoint, to name but a few.

 

[Kaibun]

Traditional sports are boring anyway, which is why No Fear is a much more exciting table. I'd love to see Indy 500 however, that's one of my favorites.

We'll see a lot of music-themed tables with Stern soon, AC/DC and Metallica were the first ones to be hinted at. DE's Tommy and GnR might be a bit too expensive, but who knows?

 

[canuck]

I am very much looking forward to the Stern iOS app.

 

[weirdproq]

Definitely would like some more variety a bit. Some music themed ones (which will be sure to come to the Stern app, can you say Metallica, possibly AC/DC? Would like to see Elvis),
some more pool themed ones (8 Ball Deluxe, Sharkey's Shootout, or even the original 8 Ball),
some sports (soccer/football: Strikers Xtreme, World Cup Soccer, basketball: Space Jam, NBA Fastbreak, Shaq Attack, baseball: Big Hit EM, Frank Thomas' Big Hurt), Rescue/Firefighter/Police (Fire!, Police Force),
Bowling [seems to be mainly EM] (Lucky Strike, Bowl-O, Strike Zone, King Pin [Gottlieb][My personal pick, since similar to El Derado], 300, Strikes & Spares (Bally), The Big Lebowski),
Casino/Cash (Riverboat Gambler, Millionaire, Jokerz!),
and Racing/Cars (Rollergames, Mario Andretti, Corvette, Indianapolis 500, Nascar, Truck Stop).

Eldar your thinking = mine, thumbs up !!!!

WChS was the "Car Hop" playfield with an additional ramp, new rules, and of course a DMD.

Never played WChS, but I've played Car Hop. It's OK-like many of Gottlieb's early 90's tables, it's an aquired taste. But Diner pretty much covered the food theme. Supposedly the next machine for TPA will pretty much take care of anyone needing an extra "Ah-nuld" fix.
