The big thing out of this deal is going to be an original table from a Sony license that has never been made into a table before. Ooh, interesting! Did they specify if it's a table that was in the works and cancelled or if it's going a table made from scratch? It's likely Krull, which was originally going to be released by Gottlieb (at the time, was owned by Columbia Pictures): www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=1397Here are the games that were based on Columbia Pictures properties, as well as co-licensors: - Johnny Mnemonic
- Mary Shelly's Frankenstein
- Starship Troopers
- Last Action Hero
- Godzilla (Toho)
- Spider-Man (Marvel)
- Wheel of Fortune
- Close Encounters of the Third Kind
- Charlie's Angels
- Q*Bert's Quest

Won't be easy to get this one According to their video, FarSight weren't able to secure the likeness rights for Christopher Lloyd (Fester) and Jimmy Workman (Pugsley). Given that Fester appears on the bottom of the playfield...

I think the Krull pinball game never got released because the film bombed at the box office back in 1983 (Even though Krull went on to become a cult classic)

Phantom of the Opera is next. HELL. YES. I love Phantom of the Opera even though I'm no good at it. I actually know someone who used to own one of those and I remember once, I wen to his house with my parents for New Year's Eve, he opened the coin slot, used the same coin to give us a bunch of credits (guess for some reason he couldn't toggle it to free mode) and with the other kids we spent hours playing it. Good times. Also, 10 days to go for the Addams Family kickstarter and they have raised just over 81 000 dollars so far.

Little under a week to go, and they've made it over $90,000. So close now, you can taste the formaldehyde.

The Kickstarter reached its goal, but it's most likely a bogus pledge that may it that way.

The brand new original table is actually going to be Ghostbusters, which will be its own standalone app and not part of the Pinball Arcade collection. It will be free, but not unlimited play, with a daily token system in place.

Ghostbusters is out now for the iOS. Not bad, kinda wished they did a more original table rather than reskin Haunted House though.

It seems that a few Season 4 tables have been leaked. Through the table hint from the recent newsletter, we're getting The Party Zone. Also the successful Kickstarter means we're getting The Addams Family. The last 3 tables leaked are: {Spoiler}Earthshaker, Starship Troopers, and The Getaway: High Speed II

So I recently decided to complete all the wizard goals for the tables I own and man, I used to think these goals were easy, but some of them are absurdly hard! At first I wanted to do them table-by-table but I had to give up that plan and just move on to some I found easier. Do you guys have tables that just stump you?

Party Zone is now out and it's obvious from the newsletter what the next one will be.

Someone on GAF pointed out that the next table may actually be Earthshaker as the clue says "Sunny drive time", a line from the game.

Cool, apparently the tournaments are finally coming soon! I wonder how exactly they'll work. Also, I can't wait to destroy everyone on Scared Stiff and Bride of Pin*Bot.

So as you can see, the title of this thread has been updated thanks to Sheriff Tyger (and Platypus who made one just before Tyger) so that if anyone wants, you can talk about other pinball games here like FX2 and Rollers of the Realm.
Speaking of Rollers, has anyone gotten that one? It's on sale right now and I'm wondering if it's any good or not.

TPA has started their 12 Days of updates today. And it starts with Seasons 1 and 2 for iOS, Steam, Google play, Amazon, and OUYA being 50% off for the holidays.
And day 2 is the announcement of Starship Troopers as the table after Earthshaker!
