    3 licensed themes
    6 unlicensed themes

    #2 1 year ago

    2 licensed (Harley-Davidson & Wheel of Fortune)
    1 unlicensed

    Historically many more unlicensed: 19 unlicensed (Collection history)

    #3 1 year ago

    14 unlicensed
    12 licensed
    I think.
    Did Space Shuttle require some sort of license? Grand Prix?
    I have a slight majority of older games, which were generally never licensed themes.

    11 licensed out of 32 titles.

    #5 1 year ago

    26 licensed
    39 unlicensed

    A couple gray area ones like Williams Grand Prix. I know it's based off the F1 type race but I don't think it's licensed per se. But I counted it as licensed anyway.

    Of the 45 pins that have rotated through my basement (wow) 20 were unlicensed and 25 licensed. The grey ones like Taxi and Space Shuttle go to unlicensed.

    All but one of my pins designed after the 2000 are licensed though, with TNA being the only newer unlicensed game. Danesi carried that one on his own (I miss it).

    I had assumed licensed pins outweighed unlicensed in my collection, but after actually counting them, it actually leaned in the other direction.

    #8 1 year ago

    2 licensed
    4 unlicensed

    My collection has been scaled down considerably - but since my current list is pretty much newer games, they are majority licensed.

    DW, TZ, EHOH, GZ, MB (original).

    However, I also have a P3, which means I have about 20 unlicensed games (and Weird Al coming soon!). So, I guess unlicensed wins!

    #10 1 year ago

    Flight 2000, Card Whiz, Fireball, and High Speed.
    The only licensed game I owned and no longer have is Maverick.

    Just seems like most modern machines are licensed. I would like to play Dialed In sometime. TNA is fantastic and would like to own that one day if I actually ever could buy one.

    11 unlicensed
    1 licensed
    One licenced on it way.

    Surprised it's so close. Everyone who has commented must have a mix of old and new pins.

    #13 1 year ago

    6 licensed

    Funny. I counted GP as unlicensed.

    #15 1 year ago

    Current line up is 7 unlicensed to 6 licensed. Overall i’m sure it would lean much further towards unlicensed.

    #16 1 year ago

    I suspect only those who have ANY! Unlicensed games are willing to take this poll

    #17 1 year ago

    2 licensed (Deadpool, meteor)
    7 unlicensed

    5 games sold over the years (2 unlicensed, 3 licensed)

    Not much to do in Kalamazoo?

    #20 1 year ago

    5 unlicensed
    17 licensed
    Surprising actually

    #21 1 year ago

    A little more than half licensed

    #22 1 year ago

    I’m surprised by the numbers of unlicensed in these posts. I would’ve figured WAY more licensed games.
    My count is 18 licensed. 6 unlicensed.

    #23 1 year ago

    Unless you own only games from 2000 on, it’s gonna be more unlicensed games cause that’s how it was. Just more unlicensed games than licensed games pre 2000.

    Especially those of us that have lots of non dmd games. Which there’s a ton of us.

    #24 1 year ago

    Unlicensed: 6
    Licensed: 3

    #25 1 year ago

    Zero licenses. 13 Classic Bally SS.

    #26 1 year ago

    8 unlicensed

    Centigrade 37
    Astro
    Black Hole

    Eight Ball Deluxe
    Gamatron

    I was thinking that same thing until I realized one of my oldest games, Wizard! from 1975, is licensed. Harlem Globetrotters is also licensed from 1979. So I ended up with it being closer than I expected: 12 licensed (I'm including Space Shuttle), versus 13 unlicensed. Godzilla is on the way to make it completely even at 13 each.

    Lies, your collection only list one game

    #29 1 year ago

    I stand corrected. I have a Harlem Globetrotters and a Bobby Orr Powerplay.

    11 unlicensed and 2 licensed.

    Thanks for calling me out and making me focus.

    #30 1 year ago

    Even up right now. Lifetime, "un" leads by 1.
