The whole Gottlieb collection is on the way with the exception of the non pinball tables on there like playboy, strikes and spares, xolten, etc etc

I love drop target games. Plus Joker Poker has a nice set up to make poker hands and the perfectly placed top flipper. Just a well designed game.

Also I really like card/casino themed pins. It just seems to lend itself to pinball very easily.

I olayed a real raven a few times i kinda like early and mid gottielb ss

Syt trap hates genisis but i want it
I like Genesis because the objectives are so simple - make every shot a certain amount of times, and there's a pretty good variety of them. The only downside is lousy presentation - forgettable sound effects and absolutely no voice at all, in a table from 1986!

There's plenty of Gottlieb EMs I would to like see and some early Solid State, but really none of the Gottlieb DMD games would get my vote. Not even you, Stargate.

I know it isn't that great of a table but I would like to see Around the World. Was a old table from 59 but grew up playing it in my grandma's basement. Couple pinball machines and a pool table = coolest basement ever to a kid. Actually that is still pretty much true

Class of 1812
Bone Buster Inc and Whipeout also look cool.
Haunted house is another upside-down-playfield table, same as black hole, but it does look fun.
Tee'd off also comes to mind.

It isn't hard to find people who hate the sound of those older tables with bellchimes, or early 4-bit bleeps and bloorps and other electronic farts. (Personally I like them just fine) though luckily there are also some cool Gottliebs with music,ramps etc. I hope that the next Gottlieb will be one of those.

That Raven backglass is definitely better. When I went to pick my F-14 the guy had just picked up a Raven. Besides it I thought my F-14 looked even more gorgeous. My girlfriend would have cried if I had brought Raven in our living room. It probably isn't that bad to play though.

As for a nightmare on elm street as much as I would love it I would be really surprised. Warner has the license now and there is not only Robert Englund on the backglass there is also scenes from the movies that plays on the dmd so you need the approval of all those people. I don't think Farsight would go to all this trouble for a machine that is only a classic to Freddy fan. I think I am going to have to find a real one in order to play it.

I had a chance to play a Freddy the other week at a local pinball show and I thought it was a great machine. Unfortunately, you are probably right about the licensing costs keeping it from being possible. I don't see Kickstarter being an option for this one. I hope they decide to attempt "premium" tables in the future so they could cover the licensing. I would easily pay 10, 15, 20 dollars for Freddy. That may or may not be a successful strategy though. Based on some of the comments I see around here, people are complaining about have to pay 5 dollars for 2 tables because they only want one.

I would have no problem paying 10 or more for Freddy, Robocop, Back to the Future or Star Wars or give a liver for Guns n' Roses. People pay 70 bucks for a FPS with a 5 hour campaign but they whine for 5 dollars on something they could play for countless hours that's just crazy.

Great list, PW.

In addition, I'd also like to see Royal Flush.

Actually played a Wipe Out... it looks like it would be cool, but the playfield toys/gimmicks really are pointless unfortunately, and just serve to slow down play and congest the playfield. Sorry, man.

Pinwiz you forgot Surf N Safari, I played one at the southern pinball show and loved it. Otherwise I love your list of games, especially Bone Busters, Cactus Jack, Class of 1812, and my all-time favorite from Gottlieb besides Freddy goes to Rescue 911. I used to play Rescue 911 quite a bit in a bar/pool place quite often.

My local bowling alley used to have a Tee'd Off. Been playing it when I was just 7 or 8 years old. Ahhh memories :)

(No chance to play the Freddy machine when it was added and replaced Corvette and Tee'd Off; too scray at my age back then!)

There's some lovable Gottliebs out there... they're not all puggs, and chances are that re-releases of GHOF tables are more likely (if so Tee'd Off pretty please), but I hope that the names mentioned in this thread will ultimately ressonate with Farsight also, when they hunt for additional pins to emulate.
Also, one more shout-out to Class Of 1812; let those chickens sing.

I'm more than a bit excited about the Gottlieb emulation news mentioned in the Jeff interview of Bobby. I'm ready for the deluge of Gottlieb tables. A quick chronological list of some I'd like to see.

1967 King of Diamonds
1974 Big Indian
1975 Atlantis
1975 Spirit of 76
1976 Buccaneer
1978 Joker Poker
1982 Haunted House
1982 Devil's Dare
1991 Class of 1812

I'm sure I'm missing some greats, but this is a good start.

I'd like to add 1976 Surf Champ to my list. How did I miss that one?
