Your ultimate game theme - what would it be for you
« on: May 03, 2011, 08:41:43 PM »
Hi All

I have noticed various comments about the Tron game here and on the net - some good some negative.

What if you could chose your game theme and features for the market place, what would you go for.

Theme - For some reason Hot Wheels keeps coming to mind with me - wild and cool cars, bright colours.

Feature - maybe a see through playfield but at the same angle as the main playfield.

Wha's your ideas......

I have already seen a Hot Wheels pin, it was on Ebay last year a couple of times.

How about ZZTOP, it could have some sort of spinning guitar feature.

I have seen the Zaccaria Hot Wheels machine which is like a formula one theme but I was more thinking Mattel Hot wheels with all the cool customs, surfie cars etc, lots of toys to use inside and customise for a persons taste....

I don't know how fur would go in a pinball with ZZ top - kidding.

I would love to see a STARGATE or STARGATE ATLANTIS Pinball machine.

Being a STAR TREK fan as well, a STAR TREK VOYAGER pinball would have been cool.

Even a ALIENS pinball from the Sigourney Weaver movie series would be cool. A big ALIEN head comes out of the playfield and grabs the ball - that would be cool.  ^^^

Useless trivia - Bram Stoker's Dracula by Williams in 1992 was originally going to be Alien 3 but the movie studio wouldn't approve the artwork.

I feel like a dik, I shld have said Stargate with Samantha Carter (yummy) and those guys, versus the original movie with the original cast.
And by the way Nick, your Stargate Pinball is a very very good example, which is priced also very well. It will sell on Ebay, if u can handle some of the tyre kickers etc.
I have always wanted a Stargate and I am trying to talk my brother into one, cause I am sort of out of room, til i can hide a few more from the wife !

What about a UFC Pinball. That is popular these days, maybe like a new version of Royal Rumble. Ding Ding Ding.

V8 Supercar Pinball. or Bathurst 1000 Pinball. HSV Pinball. They would all sell well.  ^^^ Most Sports.

Another good one would be the dukes of hazzard with a ramp jump shot. Could definitely have a story and missions built into that.

I like that, reminds me a little of the game we are building now (NPC-002) which is being built to my ultimate theme. Hopefully we'll make some headway over winter as I'm getting itchy to finish it now.

Didn't the NPC-002 have a theme voting thread some where...... just curious of the short list or did you go left field.

Might have been NPC-003 maybe? 002 has been locked in since well before Coconut Island was finished.
