Hey Guys Happy 2025

I am an avid pinball player as well as musician/fan and am noting the conspicuous omission of any Pearl Jam themed pinball machine :(

STERN Pinball are in my opinion (and most pinballers) the best designed and most premium quality pinball machines .. I think the guys should hit them up and sound out making a PEARL JAM pinball !!

It would be a great opportunity for people like Ed and Jeff to get involved in the art side and of course having a pinball with a thumping Pearl Jam soundtrack :):)

If this happend I would predict it to be uber popular !!  I would buy the Limited Edition version sight unseen :D

Have Fun all !!

    That would be cool. I used to own a Simpsons machine. I would have bought the Foo Fighters machine if I had a spot for it.

    The Foos pinball is one of my favourites ever and I don't even listen to the band!

    I’ve been waiting to pull the trigger on a pinball machine. If they ever did one I would also buy the limited sight unseen.

    Iron Maiden is my favorite music themed pin and I'm not even familiar with their music. Great gameplay. Here's my lineup.....adding Medieval Madness next.

    I know it's not the same as real pinball but I have the Adams Family 4k Pinball from AtGames and love that I can play a ton of the tables without needing a warehouse... definitely check it out if you want pinball but don't have the space for more than 1 machine. https://www.atgames.us/

    Twilight Zone is the GOAT as far as pinball machines go.  The powerball and "Battle the Power"!  I played it so much in college during the mid 90's.  They had one at the arcade at the mall where I went to school.  This post is so ironic because I was looking up how much it would cost and how I would go about buying one just yesterday.  The thing that scares me is the price and what I would do if something broke on it.

    I also played Indiana Jones back then.  I loved Haunted House as well from the 80's.

    I got my TZ machine on ebay about 20 years ago for $1500 or something. It is difficult to get people out for repair. Most places want you to bring it to them which is a pain in the ass as those things weigh a lot and if you have it in a basement, etc., you can imagine.

    I paid $400 or so a few years back to have someone come to me and do some maintenance. 

    Ebay has a few machines listed for around $12K...I can't imagine paying that now

    Be patient.  Chicago Gaming Company is doing new re-mastered version of Twilight Zone.  Likely coming later this year or in 2026 but they are currently working on it. Similar to how they've done re-releases of Medieval Madness, Attack from Mars, Cactus Canyon, and Monster Bash.

    I wouldn't call myself an avid player, but I play fairly often. I've really been into Jaws, Godzilla, and Ghostbusters. Jaws is probably my favorite of the bunch.
