Ultimate “Ages” Lineup

[James]

As I’ve been getting back on the Pinball horse, I have room for 4 and managed a System 11 (Diner), WPC (Scared Stiff), Stern DMD era (ACDC) and Stern LCD (Batman ‘66).

I am pretty happy that’s a cool through the ages lineup. I know it’s not gold standard, but wondered what would be everyone’s “4 Pins Through the Ages” collection.

Essentially any 4 “time periods” based on technology movements, but no two the same and only 4.

Mine I think would be:

Space Station
Medieval Madness
Lord of the Rings
Batman ‘66

I think that’s family friendly enough, TWD (Pro) missed out as it isn’t family friendly enough and IMDN the same as BM66 gets love from all the family. LOTR Harry hated when he was younger, but I’m hoping he’d be over it by now…

Wow that's exactly what I have too, well different games but same systems, feel like its important to have variety in a small collection.

Think I would go with...

Radical
ToM
ACDC
Godfather

 

[Gonzo]

Good game

Eight Ball D
Attack From Mars
Lord OTR
Cactus Remake

 

[Doggard]

Centaur
AFM
spiderman
Jurrassic park
My ultimate 4 pin line up

 

[Fantazia2]

Good game

Eight Ball D
Attack From Mars
Lord OTR
Cactus Remake

Is Cactus Remake not cheating?

 

[GezTheHealer]

That’s a sweet line up! I like to have a mix of ages as well -

Powerplay - solid state 70’s
Surf n’ Safari - alpha numerical 90’s
Spiderman - DMD 00’s
Big Lebowski - modern would be my pick.

On my way there

 

[AlanJ]

Medieval Water. (can’t decide)

[Bobbdobalina]

[strobey]

Whirlwind
AFM
WoF or BBH
LZ or BM66

 

[Colywobbles]

FH
AFM
Met
GZ

FH - I’ve had about a doz FH so obvious choice but there’s so many good Sys11 games it’s a hard one.

AFM - had around 4 originals but always hankered for the remake in LE livery.

Met - with BM66 real close and tbh I would be happy with either one. BTW I own them both ATM

GZ - easy choice as the best pin ever made and my ultimate theme.

I’d like to add my own wildcard TNA which is a classic throwback layout with a modern twist kinda spans all the decades in many ways.

[Happypin]

Ok my 4 are

1) Dolly Parton
2) Twilight Zone
3) The Simpsons pinball party
4) Elvira House of Horrors

1 and 4 have no connection but the back glass does help my choices, anything before the 90s my game play on them is next to zero, knowledge is poor on the older games, Dolly I played a fair few games at Gonzo’s so that helped my choice there.

 

[Sgt GrizZ]

Too many to choose from . My heart says …

Popeye
Popeye
Popeye
Popeye

Also ….. I sold Popeye
