Favorite pre-1980 table?

[pm1109]

Xenon and Fireball.

either of those two will do

I voted for Fireball, since Xenon was made in 1980. They asked for PRE 1980.

Yes. I wish people would get that. FarSight has even responded on FB that they want pre-1980. Problem is most people want early SS games from 80 or 81, not before. But, maybe FS knows this already and has plans to make some of them anyway so more input is not needed. Cough, cough...Fathom

Also, Wizard! is a licensed game.

Voted for Fireball because it finally needs to come but Paragon would be good too.

Edit: Xenon does have a project start date of 11/26/79 but I don't know if that counts. FS didn't specify.

Williams Space Mission (1976) is a fun EM table with great shots and would be an awesome addition to The Pinball Arcade. I do hope Fireball and Flash makes it in The Pinball Arcade at some point.

I vote Big Kick (Sega).

I voted for Fireball, because EM multiball.

You can actually have multiball on Central Park in real life (Not in TPA), as well as pretty much all of the pinball machines from the same era. Simply release all of the balls into the trough and launch them. However, you will lose all of your balls quickly by doing this.

Between Xenon (depending on year) and Paragon.

either of those two will do

Why on earth is xenon on this list?

Right. Didn't that come out in 1980 or 1981? I will love it anyhow eh.

You know it!

I'd take any of those except Jive Time... I looked them up on ipdb to refresh on them, wound up voting for Joker Poker when I saw the layout. It just looks interesting to play around on. I figure if I saw it in person it'd get quarters from me, so that's probably reason enough to vote for it. But they're all good choices, pretty much.

Except maybe Jive Time.

Xenon was made in 1980, no?

That's how I see it too. I went with Fireball.

This is what's going down on Twitter so far - tables with more than one vote. If someone mentioned more than one table, I've counted every one. Dates are IPDB manufacture dates.

Xenon 6 1980
Paragon 4 1979
Spirit Of 76 4 1975
Centigrade 37 3 1975
Fireball 3 1972
Future Spa 3 1979
Joker Poker 3 1978
Royal Flush 3 1976
Ace High 2 1957
Flash 2 1979
Lost World 2 1978
Mata Hari 2 1978

New TPA table, that's fast! They must have forgotten that rotating disk in the hurry

 

[EldarOfSuburbia]

Nice, but that's a Fireball Home Edition. There's one in the lobby here where I work.

 

[Nightwing]

Since Xenon is a 1980 table,Paragon gets my vote

 

[EldarOfSuburbia]

I was going to try to count nominations on Facebook. Someone else can do that.

 

[Heretic]

Were the rest of the responses just post 80's tables, X360 inquiries, and "Where's Addams Family?" questions? Cuz, y'know, Facebook.

Like I said, that's from Twitter. I can search by Hasthag on Twitter so everything is at least formatted correctly.

Facebook is... a mess. Not going there. Can't search by Hashtag. Also, idiots a-plenty.

[Edit] Did I mention, Paragon? Yes? No? PARAGON!
