Title: Pinball Machine
Post by: Homebrew on August 08, 2003, 12:21:42 pm

I have quick question for any of you pinball savvy people.  I'm curious as to whether there's really Devil's Advocate pinball machines.  I was watching the Simpson's re-run where homer ask if he can play devil's advocate and then turns around and starts playing a pinball machine of that name.  After LMAO, i thought that such a pinball machine would be cool to have.  I'm just wondering if they really exist, I personally have never seen one.

I don't think there is one.  It doesn't show up in the Internet Pinball Database, which is fairly complete.

Heh I was just joking with a buddy of mine about this.  "Marge, may I play Devil's Advocate?"   Hilarious  ;D

There may be a KLOV entry for Nuke Canada, though...  ;)

Huh, surprised there was no Bill & Ted or Matrix (too new).

The pinball in the Simpsons episode is ficticious.

Why would Matrix be too new?  They already have out a Lord of the Rings and I think it's even on it's second run already.

At one point just about every popular movie had a Pin.  It just isn't so these days...  Of course Johnny Pnumonic wasn't exactly a hit...cool game with the Cyber Gloves though.

If I recall correctly, I think I read somewhere that Fish Tales was already being made.  That's pretty quick.

Fish Tales is a 1992 Williams pin based on a fishing theme, not the movie.  The only new pin I know of in the works is Stern's based on The Sopranos.
