    When looking for information on 1977 Stern Stampede (http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=5232), I noticed that pinside makes no acknowledgment of the games existence, and I was wondering if there are any other games from 1975 to now that are also not listed:

    Even though there is a page for Alvin G's 1993 Maxx Badazz, which never even had a prototype made: http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=4350

    Stern Stampede is an EM machine. Pinside is dedicated to Solid State machines only. We certainly discuss EM machines, but the archive on here is only for Solid State machines.

    At this time the Pinside archive 'only' holds Solid State (1975 and later) pinball titles. We do have plans to include EM titles in the archive (probably the most requested feature by Pinside visitors) but because of the work involved we don't know if and when this will be.

    Volunteers wanted! If you would like to contribute and help with the effort of adding around 1000 EM games to the archive, meaning spending considerable time adding game information and (backglass) images after we have added the titles, let me know here in this thread. Maybe we can organise this and get the 'project' going.

    OK you EM lovers you heard Robin now's your chance to get more involved in Pinside and get the ball rolling

    I guess there aren't that many EM people on the Pinside? Kind of figures since we haven't had any EM games on here for 10 years

    Can I add the one that I just bought?

    #8 12 years ago

    Robin, I don't know exactly how this would work but I wouldn't mind contributing some time if you need. Thanx.

    Sign me up. You don't want to know how much time I will spend doing this

    That should not be a difficult chore with the data dumps I just sent Robin. The ENTIRE IPDB list (yes, all 5668 entries) along with the year of manufacture, what kind of game it is, and who made it is all in those tables.
    We can do the backglass images in retrospect. If you REALLY want I could build another perl program to get images from IPDB entries. Probably should, that's the only part of IPDB I haven't ripped yet.

    I was looking to rate an SS game by Rally called Rally Girl that I played for a while about 2 years back. No Rally games on here-could you add it Robin?

    #12 12 years ago

    Rally Girl=IPDB 3599. It's on that list I sent Robin.

    Hmm, IPDB lists Rally Girl as an EM game? Anyways, it will be coming to the archive when I add the EM games. Just a bit more patience please as I'm currently a bit tied up in other things...

    A bar 15 miles from me just got a Knockout and a Rawhide. I don't know, I thought I would just say that.

    Did you know you can add locations to play on the site?

    Yes, I guess I just had to type in the names that they had being that these machines are EM.
