Pinballs based on pool or billiards theme
« on: February 03, 2009, 02:10:01 AM »
Someone triggered this with a comment they made.

As you may know by know, I am a huge fan of Eight Ball Deluxe and am looking to pick one up in 2009.

It would be interesting to know what other pins are based on pool or billiards. I nearly picked up a Cue Ball Wizard last year but that one fell through, which was a real shame as a good mate of mine was very keen on it.

Kicking off with:-

Eight Ball
Eight Ball Deluxe
Cue Ball Wizard

There would certainly be enough to theme a collection if you were that way inclined.

But I think I prefer variety.

Bally Eight Ball Champ. Successor to Eight Ball and pre-cursor to Eight Ball Deluxe (I think). Pretty rare but apparently pretty average to play.

Oh, yeah, plus Eight Ball Deluxe Limited (= not as good apparently) Edition. I think I got that right.
