    Basic tables from the 80s in arcades,etc is what I love..... (Most of those above are nice)


    What are some of your favourite tables?? (I have Microsoft Pinball on my computer with the default BASIC TABLE and its nice)

    Modern tables are mostly pretty ugly. All the original artwork used to look amazing now they have bland photo based stuff all the time.

    I'd play more old school pinball if I could find the tables. We've so few in public places in Ireland now that I don't play a fraction as much as I'd like.

    I'm on the hunt as we speak for one.

    Something 90's would suit me grand :D

    That judge dread on adverts a few weeks ago is still making me sick i missed it

    I've a Williams Whirlwind myself so I am going to say that's my favourite lol, in fairness it is an awesome table, I've had an issue with the music which I hop to be all fixed this weekend.
    I've recently played a 'no fear' pinball and was it was pretty good. Not alot of choice with playing pinball in Ireland, especially as most operators don't service them regularly even if they do have them.

    There is actually a couple of them privately owned in Ireland too

    Ah who knows whats owned around Ireland. I'd say there are some serious collectors out there who just keep to themselves!

    Think the lad from Adare has moved to Wales and he's designing his own table for manufacture called Full Throttle. The name of the company is Heighway Pinball.
