Quoted from stubborngamer:I was thinking about obscure things I used to have that might be construed as a pinball machine(why? I don't know!), and I started thinking about Waterfuls. I guess one could argue they are more Pachinko than Pinball, or their own distinct water thing, but what rule is there that you can't dump a bunch of water into a pinball machine? Technically the button(s) is both a plunger and a flipper, with no actual drain(aside from where the water goes in). Apparently they made a bazillion iterations of this toy. Some with one button, some with two. Usually with some manner of goal.
I am not entirely sure which one I owned(or if I owned more than one), but the 2 player basketball one seems vaguely familiar.

This thread got me thinking about how my toilet might be considered a pinball machine. I mean, it has a very satisfying shot with several different approaches to hitting it, the flush lever kinda looks like a flipper, when I use the plunger I consider that my skill shot, and there's a drain that ends your turn. I love mine so much it's bolted to the floor.
