Just saw this one. Is it a conversion game, or really a one-off?
ebay.com link: Having Fun bingo pinball machine
Ooh, was wondering when that one would pop up. It's an oddity, all right!
The backglass appears to be a modified Lotta Fun or Fun Way, but with the bingo card from Broadway '51 with the lamp panel to match. The scoring method is very odd, as shown on the text boxes beside the card.
I know nothing else about it, other than that it looks like a Lotta Fun inside.
Here again is the Coin Machine Mfg. Co - I suspect more and more they were in the business of conversion games. Oddly, they either had a lot of patience, or they had the Bally screens (or good artists)...?
I would suspect that you could insert multiple coins for your score multiplier. Since there was only one card, perhaps this got around the restrictions faced in Ohio and other areas n multi-coin machines?

Here is a chance at owning a 100% working bingo that was gone through by a 40 year pinball repair tech. These 3 bingos are from his private collection and are all in nice original condition and are located in PA. He would like to sell the 3 together as a package deal for $1200 and would throw another Miss America Deluxe and Miss America 75 part games for free. If the package deal doesn't sell then we will sell each bingo separately for $400 each. Prefer local buyers in driving distance for pick up. Pictures will be provided to serious buyers only.

Original Bally mirrored backglass in good condition but not perfect. This is one of the games with the OK feature and one of the only 2 games with the "Futurity Game" feature. A fun game to play and generally believed to be the most popular OK Machine, along with Bikini, that Bally ever made. Game sold "as is" and must be picked up at my home in Cincinnati, Ohio.

JR, that's pretty nice alright! Cabana is the United version of Beach Club. Beautiful artwork. Can't wait to dig into the schematic for that one - should be really interesting to see the differences between that and the Bally version.
Pecos: that's an interesting eBay post - that's the only Super Wall Street that I've seen in the US. I'm sure they're here, but they seem to be a bit rare. Fun game with guaranteed sixth ball for a seventh coin.
That Caravan has a much nicer glass than mine... Hmmmmm!!!!!
Quoted from bingopodcast:Pecos: that's an interesting eBay post - that's the only Super Wall Street that I've seen in the US.
Pecos? 
Wait just a cotton pickin' second here. 
I know he is also the man, but please...give credit where it is due, sir 
The Super Wall Street didn't even come up on IPDB.....but the backglass does say it in the ad...backglass is a little different too
Ok, back to bingos 
Ha-ha, whoops!!! Sorry Captive Ball. That's what happens when I catch up way too late at night on a phone. 
Quoted from Captive_Ball:The Super Wall Street didn't even come up on IPDB.....but the backglass does say it in the ad...backglass is a little different too
For my project, I had to contact a collector in Canada with a SWS - Super Wall Street is a reskinned Bali. Both games had the same features, playfield and cabinet.
The only difference is the glass. The collector told me that the glass was actually a decal, which means that Bally did not want any 'Bali' machines left. My guess is that this was the timing of release - there was a terrible plane crash in Bali in 1974 - perhaps Bally wanted to prevent public perception that they were profiting from the crash? There are other issues with Bali as well, not certain if those could be the cause either.
Regardless, apparently Bally sent out tubes containing these decals - and operators were expected to scrape or replace their glass and place this decal. Weird!
Bally had also released a six card called simply 'Wall Street' (hence the 'Super' part) - the manual for Bali also has a misprint: it mentions 'Wall Street' as the game name. Lots of weirdness with this/these games. Bally must've been moving pretty fast.
Quoted from Captive_Ball:Pecos?
I don't mind taking the credit! 
The credit is all yours Captive_Ball. I have no idea when posting these bingos if they are rare or highly sought after or one of the dogs of the bingo world. I post the ones I find for cheap and hope that there is an occasional gem in the bunch. Is my ignorance showing?
Hey Pecos and Captive_Ball, I've said it before, but I very much appreciate you all posting the games.
One person's dog is another person's dream. One thing I will say is that regardless of title, I find the fun in each of these games.
Quoted from bingopodcast:Not a bingo, but bingo-esque card themed trap hole game - Bally Twin Joker
Quoted from bingopodcast:Twin Joker is supposed to be a fun two player game. I don't really know anything about the gameplay, as I've never seen one in person, but as I recall, there is no replay register but whoever has the highest hand would win.
Loser buys beer!
If anyone's played one, would love to hear about your experience.

Frolics is an oddball - I am liking it quite a bit, though. The odds jump up quickly, but enabling them per card is very difficult. I usually wind up with a 3 replay win for 3 in a row.

Looks to be in good shape also. No photos of the front door area though. Great price. If anyone in the Minneapolis area ever wanted to get into bingo's, this game would be a good choice.
Bingo Podcast you have to stop putting bingos up for sale.... I'm supposed to be selling not buying.... Second week of Oct. driving to Green Bay to watch the Packers play with a Bally Beach Time in tow that I sold and stopping in Ohio to pick up Bally knock off game Having Fun then down to Saint Louis again to pick up a United Caravan... May have to stop by and call on my good friend Dennis Dodel I missed him last time.
Any time Butch! Please give me a few days notice so I can be sure I'll be here. Bring a big truck! I might be in a selling mood!
Coincidently, I just this morning sent a package out to you. Should be there in a few days.

OP: This auction is for a pick up only. No delivery or shipping on this item. Pinball machine weight a lot. This is not a perfect machine. If you are looking for one this is not it. Machine does need some work. The pinball machine does light up. It has been in storage for many years. On the third picture if you look at the top left you will see were an animal made a nest in it. I do not have the keys for this machine. The Key West back glass is cracked and paint is chipping. The inside mechanical looks really good. A great project for someone and you can still get parts.
Let me know if you would like to see it. Pick up only.
That's a nice Broadway - but wow! What a price tag!
The Key West has a nice mouse nest in it. I fixed up a Bikini like that not long ago. Not sure why but they seem to prefer flipper wiring more often. That said, they'll sure chew on some bingo wiring too. Look carefully if anyone picks that one up.

Located outside of Cincinnati, OH in 45140. Pickup preferred, but I can work with your shipper.
Shopped and working all the way. A very good player's machine.
Playfield: Excellent. Cleaned and waxed. New light bulbs, posts, rubber, shooter springs, balls, rebound springs.
Cabinet: Good. Reinforced corners. Cleaned, but does show normal wear, fading, and some spotting.
Coin door: Fair. New lock. Has damage as shown in photos which does not impact game play. I'm not a woodworker, so this repair is beyond my ability.
Lock down bar: Fair. Paint loss to the metal button and associated instructions.
Backglass: Fair. Several areas of paint loss and crazing as shown in photos. Reds are faded. I'm not a touchup expert, so repainting the backglass is beyond my ability. If I were to keep the machine, I would leave it as-is or triple-thick it to arrest the paint loss and protect it from any further paint loss.
Bally's Silver Sails (1962) is one of the most desirable of all Bally bingo machines. Pick-a-play (go for scores, features, or both), triple-deck scoring, rollover buttons, magic screens, super sections, 2/3 in blue score 600/300, extra balls, OK game, Golden game.
