Rollergames, it's dripping pure cheese! From the awesome hairdos on the women to the wonderful '80's sponsor logos on the pins, it's a time capsule.

Night Moves, adult night life themed pinball couldn't be much cheesier.

That was a cocktail pin, wasn't it?

It was a cocktail, I believe one of two that the company produced. The sister machine being Caribbean Cruise, while we are on the topic of cheese...

Spring Break !!

But I think Hard Body really takes the cake on this one.

The best cheese that will ever be is 80's cheese, so glad I grew up in that amazing decade. Gottlieb reigns supreme for top cheese, just about anything they made in the 80's stunk in the most amazing way, TX Sector, Robowar, Genesis the list is long and fantastic. This isn't me by the way.

Dr. Dude ranks pretty high up there as a cheesy 80s theme.

HEAVY, METAL, MELTDOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Casio keyboard guitar riffs are the king of cheese.

#19 8 years ago

Lady Luck. The back glass screams "Patric Nagel" artwork.

Space Shuttle since it was a big thing back in the 80's

#20 8 years ago

Hardbody takes top honor in my book.

Also add SPRING BREAK to the list. Mainly cause of this guy..

Skateball

I love my Skateball stylings but is is more 1970's

"Let the good times roll!"

Love Skateball back glass. It was designed in the late 70's but not released till 80's hence the 70's look.

I am way its good since it could have gone super cheese.

#27 8 years ago

BMX...Gotta be there...

#28 8 years ago

Hollywood Heat is pure 80's Miami Vice ripoff cheese

#29 8 years ago

Gottlieb's 'Monte Carlo.' The backglass art SCREAMS dated gross Donald Trump casino from the 80s.

I would say Rock Encore nails it better.

Y'know, I actually had a Rock (2 of them, BTW) and it wasn't a half bad machine. Sadly, they had the durability of a potato chip, but they were fun. I'd buy another one in a heartbeat if I could fine one.

AC/DC and Metallica.

With that back glass clearly taken in Miami. I learned the main riffs off this game humming them until I got home to figure them out on my little Casio CZ-101

I always thought it would be neat to have a Rock and the kit for the conversion to Rock Encore. I've never played either though, just liked the pictures.
