Welcome Back to Digital Pinball Fans - please read this first
What Licenses Would You Like To See Made Into Pins?
- Thread starter CC13
- Start date
Such good ideas from everyone already. I think Game of Thrones would be awesome, especially if Jersey Jack did it with the color screen and everything.
How about:
Pink Floyd - This would have to be heavily influenced by "The Wall," with all of the crazy characters, walking hammers, etc. Maybe with a mode to "Break down the wall," sort of the equivalent of Lost in the Zone in TZ or Battle for the Kingdom on MM. Have other parts of the table pay homage to Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, etc. When you start a game, a sound clip of "Welcome...to the machine!"
Kill Bill - You would have to complete tasks to get revenge on each of the assassins before facing Bill in the final showdown.
Grand Theft Auto - The possibilities are endless.
Grateful Dead - Would be a great theme, very colorful, dancing bears, etc.
Ocean's Eleven - Gather each member of the group and then complete the casino heist. Maybe not a big enough franchise to do a pin now.
MLB Hall of Fame - Using likenesses of the all time greats like Ruth, Mays, Mantle, Aaron, DiMaggio, Williams, Gehrig, etc. The goal would be to reach the hall of fame. By using the MLB license but only hall of fame players, it prevents the table from being outdated and silly 10 years from now, since these legendary players stand the test of time.
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe - Absolutely HAS to be based on the 1980's era cartoon.
Aqua Teen Hunger Force - Great sound and fun playfield toys.

Didn't read the entire thread.
Harry Potter? Would be interesting if magnets were used in excess like X-Men.

Fracking Battlestar Galactica! (The modern version) It is mind boggling that there is no pin made of this.
Escape Cylon fleet, Find Earth, expose infiltrated units, win elections and so on. Fracking great theme IMO
Someone could yell "Frack!" when a ball goes down the outlane. Love your idea. A Cylon would make a cool bash toy. Could make a heck of a backglass with all the lovely ladies in it as well.

That is because the writer of harry potter, who owns the potter rights, does not want harry potter stuff in pubs and bars. Where people drink alcohol (and have fun)
She is afraid children, will see harry potter being played by drunk people and from that moment will always think that harry potter likes to drink alot.
Which is a dumb argument. A harry potter can be amazing for kids.

Big Lebowski!!! Jeff Bridges may already be the most frequent Hollywood celebrity to have his voice/likeness appear on tables. Why not have what many consider to be his greatest role immortalized on a table. Go bowling, fight nihilists, recover your carpet!

Thundercats! Ho!!! That would be excellent. As would voltron and robotech! Some other cartoons have been named in this thread as well that could be great. I could see smurfs with mushroom pop bumpers.

Robotech would be sweet. I hear they may be in the stages of making a Robotech movie with the success of Transformers and even the mild success of pacific Rim.
Aw man, I love the idea of a Matrix themed game.
"Agent Smith: Me Me Me Multiball": every 5 seconds another ball gets autoplunged into the playfield, up to limit of machine (10?). Goal is to prevent *any* drains. Playfield will get very crowded with balls if player can keep mode going. Jet bumper points are multipled by current number of balls in play. Once a ball drains, flippers de-energize, mode ends, end-of-ball. High potential for points, but terminates with an end-of-ball.
"Bullet Time Combo Loops": time dilation in a digital pinball game. If you make 3 loops or ramp shots in a row, Bullet Time is lit. Make another ramp/loop shot immediately, the game enters Bullet Time where gameplay physics is slowed down. Call outs, sound effects, and flipper movements are slowed down too. Continue to make ramp/loop shots successfully and Bullet Time continues, and the Bullet Time bonus grows. Miss a combo shot, and the gameplay speeds back up to normal.

You mean like this?
It's a Johnny Mnemonic converted. How appropriate is that? They're actually getting so many requests for this, they might do a kit.
