    It is official. With 157 sited machines in inner Brisbane our town has become the pinball capital of Australia and the Southern Hemisphere! We love Pinballs here. Come on down to venues like Pinball Haus, Netherworld or Pincadia and many more other locations.

    Not unless Melbourne has suddenly slid into Port Phillip Bay.

    Download pinball location app and check for yourself.

    I doubt Melbourne would have 100 games on location.

    Sydney certainly doesn’t.

    Auckland has about 20. All in different random locations. We want to set up a barcode but the real estate is so crazy expensive it’s not really viable.

    we kinda do just that the location is "hoarded in a container" usually. good luck with the venue mr bioba.

    Thanks for setting up another venue. The more the merrier. I can't wait to visit Pinball Haus and I'll make sure to add it to my list of pinball locations when in town.

    I will definately make it another stop on the Pinball Crawl I hope to have later this year!

    Sure they do.

    But being at the top of the tree for so long they most likely feel it no longer necessary to engage in largely irrelevant games of one upmanship using selective criteria like other Aussie States do to validate themselves.

    I don't live in either State but I have been involved in the hobby long enough down here to know where the highest domestic concentration hub of pinball across the entire spectrum overall has always been and to date always will be Melbourne by a mile.

    No amount of online propaganda or the warped ideology of some topsy-turvy hierarchy local Australian forum is ever going to change that.

    I didn’t think they had pinballs on location in small redneck towns in SA ? I don’t imagine the local business dealing with the dearly departed would have pins for the departed loved ones.
