Ghost Busters - 2016 - would you get it
« on: September 17, 2015, 01:11:37 PM »
Purely hypothetical but would you buy a Ghost Busters pinball if it was based on either the first 2 movies or the cartoon. It has a great potential pinball theme, catch and chase the ghosts, dark but lots of glowing bright colours, some cool toys like the fire station, ecto, ecto siren, comedy.

As for a artist either Dirty Donny or Zombie Yeti would be great as a bright and full playfield art package.

A dutch guy posted these on pinside a while back and they are very cool and some would fit the game beautifully.

Personal would not touch it if the Pro was based on the new movie coming out.

It has potential
I'd want ECTO1 to be center of the playfield
The traps would make great entrances for a subway
Somesort of hologam for slimer


It will never happen though :(

Why is that Pete?

Good thread Swinks, some of those pics/ideas are great.
Personally I like the idea of it being based on the cartoon especially with custom, hand drawn art.

If based on new movie, I'm also a No.

HAS to be based on the movie not the cartoon. Bill Murray is king

If it isn't broke, it isn't pinball.

Getting the rights to the various images and sounds would be a nightmare

Would you still want the game if it did not feature Bill Murray?

Concepts are great, but way too many moving toy mechanisms to fit into Stern's BOM.

Probably wouldn't want them touching it anyway and have them end up putting Walter Peck, the Mayor and the snooty hotel manager as the main characters on the translite.  *)*

Mutiball lightshow would look fantastic (Do, Ray, Egon!) and a color display would be a must.

Mmmm all main characters are a must, otherwise it would just be another 'Game of Thrones'

Dan Akroid (?) Does not act much these days,
They could probably afford to get him in to do custom callouts

Love the idea. Would on be good for LE's - They would be removed from operated games.
