Plus one for the Jetsons. Such a lame game in its present configuration. It could’ve been so much more.

No one‘s mentioned the Flintstones. Another great game, too bad it’s based on the movie and not the cartoon. The current art package leaves a lot to be desired.

Data East did.

Chad did tweak the code which improves things but yeah I get your point.
The layout is one of the best of the 90s imo. If Stern did that now people would be losing their minds

Agreed, but I don’t equate “psychedelic” with “drugs”. These are the definitions I had in mind:

2 : imitating, suggestive of, or reproducing effects (such as distorted or bizarre images or sounds) resembling those produced by psychedelic drugs
3 : of, relating to, characteristic of, or being the period of the mid- to late-1960's that is associated with the psychedelic drug culture

I’d even argue that The Beatles created psychedelic rock, along with Hendrix and The Doors.

Evel Knievel. The one game that should have ramps galore. Nary a one.

Time for a Robbie Knievel pin!

BSD is a timeless classic. Its addicting and never boring.

Bally Mata Hari- eliminate the kick out hole at the top arch. Drain monster.
Bally Paragon- Eliminate the right 2nd flipper as the German version.
Bally Strikes & Spares- Add 2 drop target assemblies on each lower side and eliminate the target shots.
Bally Silverball Mania- Move horseshoe up a couple inches so it's harder to nail it and trap the ball and do it again.
Gottlieb Buccaneer- The game is defined by the single spinner in the PF to access the upper portion. Needs 2 spinners to get back up top.

Just a few from games I've played a lot.

Bally Hotdoggin' - add a target or something else after the inline drops instead of return back to saucer.

Bally Nitro Groundshaker - Add inline drops in front of left saucer or maybe instead add 2 or 3 captive balls (think right side Judge Dredd) in front of left saucer and close the wall next to the pops so it just fires back down and stays trapped.

Popeye. It’s the one thing that keeps me from owning all the “super pins”.

I'd like to recode Thunderbirds and add a diverter ramp to the ramp that does nothing. The few dozen games I've played I like the layout and interactive GI lighting. Rules really make it a turd and again, a ramp that doesn't do anything but advance you to the top of the playfield.

Also, the game hits a dead end when played for points as opposed to specials. Each number is worth 5k once, then after you collect 'em all, pity points. Would be cool if specials were worth 10k or something.

I really like what people are doing with EE rulesets, eg Stars, F2K and Meteor. It‘s like getting two pins for the price of one.

Many of These games just need minor code tweaks. For example:

Kiss: center rollover awarding Kiss row should work only when you shoot the ball, as a skill shot. Spinner should award 1000 per spin for one shot and then have to be relit by center really rollover.

But the game with most potential IMO is Dolly Parton. My idea would be:

1. Complete Dolly Parton x times till you get Special.

2. Shoot the lower left hand stationary target 3x to light the lower right hand rollover (going back to the shooter lane) to collect bonus.

This could be done without changing the PF by added small vertical plastics above those targets with LEDs to show shot status.

I would base the Addams family pin on the show, not the movies. And even though I do love Raul Julia's callouts, John Astin would have nailed it too.

As it stands it’s a one shot game: hit spinner. Those changes would make it worthwhile to risk other shots.

I really like Iron Maiden’s layout, rules, art, and music but if I could, I would re-theme it to have all Megadeth assets. Vic Rattlehead art and Megadeth music. By far my favorite metal band of all time and I would be a happy man.

Agreed. I don't enjoy the game at all, but Scott Danesi had the ultimate redesign: turned his Dolly Parton into the TNA whitewood.

Cue Ball Wizard. Totally redesign the backglass art, the video modes, the skill shot, and add an auto ball launcher for the multiballs. Otherwise that game has a lot going for it.

I would add a 5th and maybe 6th ball to Metallica.

No it's not

BBBB - such a great theme needs an equally great redo.

I really enjoyed my CBW, but it gets really annoying to have to point out to new players that the ball is just sitting there in the shooter lane during multiball. My list was a few points to take a good game and make it great.

A BMX kind of theme would work great with that game ...

Someday ...

IJPA. I'd add the other half of the playfield it's missing.

Monopoly. Can't understand the current rules. Instead have the playfield Monopoly board with lights that move around from space to space. Maybe based on how many times a spinner spins when you shoot ball. Put in a target(s) of some kind to purchase a property. After you own all of the same properties, hit drop targets or ramps multiple times to add houses and ultimately hotel. Penalize other players who land on "your" properties based on your rent with or without additions. Maybe subtract extra balls also. Design it to play a lot more like the board game itself.

Maybe get rid of that stupid rotating flipper too?

I bought Dialed In and being a Lawlor fan I was looking forward to keeping it for years but I didn't like the rules and the electric Bob target was just programmed wrong...it activated way too often. Lastly every mode was basically similar so it became a chore to play through.

Houdini

Would be better as a widebody.

#haunted-house would had a lcd screen, couple of ramps, multiple mods 90’s type and multi balls

X-Men

I would keep the layout, art, music and DMD animations. I would also keep the basic backbones of the rules and game progression.

I would change the Wolverine figure, going with a more Walking Dead type bash toy that would be universally positions on all models of the game and allow room on each side for the shots to the left and right of it. I would also clean up all of the modes, ditch the craptastic callouts and actually have them record some negative callouts so the games wasn't telling you what a great job you did when failing modes.

Ya, I hear you. Just not going to happen.
Wide body with a left ramp would of been awesome.
Or, upper playfield.

CCr = Saloon doors

Popeye - clear upper playfield (like WPT) and remove the environment theme.
