What do you think of games with "Crossover return lanes"
« on: March 24, 2016, 01:10:27 PM »
I was curious of what games had crossover return lanes / reverse inlanes? I had a Skateball and enjoyed the challenge down the lhs side.

I did a search at Pinball Database and found 18 games with the most recent was 1991's Harley Davidson. I seem to remember some newer games that had them.

Pinball Database list has these:
Al Capone LTD
Atleta   INDER
Beat the Clock   Bally Midway
Comet   Williams
Fathom   Bally
Gold Ball   Bally Midway
Grand Slam   Bally Midway
Grand Slam   Bally Midway
Harley-Davidson Midway
Jolly Park   Spinball
Kings of Steel   Bally Midway
Mr. & Mrs. Pac-Man Pinball   Bally
Papillon   Jeutel
Rally Taito
Skateball   Bally
Skill Flight Bell
Verne's World   Spinball
X's & O's   Bally Midway

Never realised that Rally by Taito is almost a copy of Skateball less one flipper.

I love stuff that is a little bit different like what you have described. First time i played Flintstones where the ball goes around the apron was awesome!

I really like them, the ball traveling past the gap if it is sufficiently fast enough, but still making me panic each time!
