Quoted from benheck:

Zelda would crush on location. Like "worth it to deal with the Disney of gaming" crush it. Also has a lot of Gen X draw.
Would also fit pinball better than other vids, the PF would represent the classic overheard view.

Totally agree! Zelda spans generations (like William Shatner)…I grew up with Zelda on NES and my son just completed the newest one on Switch…it would be a major win in this home!

Let's do a game with no LCD; those seem pretty hip right now!

Do a headless pin just the cab and legs.
Theme: Headless Horseman

LCD or no LCD…as always…it’s the game that matters. Can’t wait to get my Scooby AND my Pulp Fiction. Equally excited about both! It’s a great year for pinball

No pops and like 5 upper play fields.

Quoted from Zablon:

If it's not their next pin, I'm afraid it might not come at all. If it does, I hope it's more geared towards Army of Darkness though.

#12312 1 year ago

With this coming out the time is right for spooky to make this.

#12313 1 year ago

Zombieland.
I would go for that.

Quoted from Var1AbL3:

Cross post from Scooby-Doo Hype thread:
Can't believe no one's pointed this out yet, but Spooky appears to be giving us a big clue on a future title at around 13:20 of the game play reveal. LukeP specifically says "those may be some Easter eggs to some other pinball machines as well. "
Could it be a carnival themed game next? Either way once these start arriving we'll be able to find some clues.

Zombieland or This is the End would be fantastic themes for me

Spooky’s last game was Halloween. Halloween’s sequel was Halloween 2, which Danny McBride just rebooted

Also…

We know Ben Heck is coding the next game. Heck who is famously thirsty to convert the ignorant masses to his form of pinball based Christian fundamentalism

That can only mean Spooky’s next game must be

Bit of a stretch to jump to “Spooky is doing Munsters because Bug is wearing a Frankenstein’s monster tshirt”. That’s like…QANON math haha.

Jeezus man, a joke lol
I still want to see Monster House as a pin though

#12327 1 year ago

I played Nightmare on Elm st pin at TPF.
There was ALWAYS someone playing it.
There is money there if Spooky wants it.

#12328 1 year ago

I’m not sure any manufacturer is going to want to touch an IP based on a melted pedophile who kills children in their dreams.
I think Friday 13th would be a no brainer, as well as Evil Dead and Return of the Living dead.

#12329 1 year ago

you do realize there's already a pin based on that license right?

#12330 1 year ago

Yes, ive owned one. I am speaking current day. I’m not sure anyone realized that Freddy Kruger was a pedophile early on as it was largely removed from the script in the first film. It was hinted at in the film but went over the majority of peoples heads. Every one knows today and the subject is far more sensitive in today’s climate as it ever has been. I would be shocked if the IP were picked up again.

Really? Look at all the Freddy merch available today. You can go into a hot topic and come out with a bunch of Freddy stuff.

But killing teens at a summer camp is fair game..lol
Freddy has good call outs, tell us what call outs would be in FRIDAY THE 13TH?

#12334 1 year ago

It is much different. Jason is not a pedophile. It’s clearly not the killing that’s the problem, c’mon. I see your point about the callouts but I don’t but a game based on how god the callouts are. I buy based on how good the GAME is.

If memory serves, Freddy wasn't convicted as a pedophile and was burned to death by vigilante justice is why he came back to life to kill the children of the town.

#12336 1 year ago

yea it was that abysmal remake that really laid into the pedophile thing. In the original movies, while he was portrayed as a bad man, it was the parents who were actually the bad people.

Once you're choosing between pedophiles, murderers, and rapist trees, the line gets very thin. I don't think most real-world people into horror have a problem with Freddy's grotesque backstory because they don't give it much thought. He's a bad guy - like all of them.

#12338 1 year ago

Michael doesn’t say anything in Halloween and they were able to make callouts with a different character so I don’t see why they couldn’t do the same for a Friday The 13th pin!

Also, I agree Freddy is great for call outs!

#12339 1 year ago

A quick google search…

Freddy was a pedophile in the original script for the first film. The studio subdued it but the subtext has been there all along

I really don't think the cultural zeitgeist cares about the pedophile angle. It was really only played up in the forgettable remake. Most people just know him as being scary in the first movie and then becoming progressively sillier in his kills and catchphrases in subsequent movies. It's not like the game would have to get into the lore of Freddy Kruger either...

He's such a perfect pinball antagonist

Jason is boring as an antagonist to me. He's just a blank killing machine. At least with Halloween they had fake Donald Pleasance to liven up the speech callouts.

#12341 1 year ago

Yeah, Doesn’t change the fact that the character was always a pedophile. If you don’t “care” about that…then…um…

#12342 1 year ago

We don't. That's the point.

I mean, if you can justify serial killers, gangsters, aliens, etc.....get over it It's fantasy. A game based on the movies would not need to address any of what you are concerned about.

#12343 1 year ago
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:

It’s a fictional character that is evil…

#12344 1 year ago

They brought back the hints to the pedophile stuff in part 6, but otherwise it's always kind of been skirted around as simply a child killer. Despite that he became an icon of the time, toys for kids, merch galore, and still they pump out merch and no one says a thing.

I think you have me confused with a certain serial divorcee ponzi scheme-ist!

Quoted from mpdpvdpin:

Let me get this straight:
- We can watch movies, wear tees and and own pins that have the main character as a horrible sadistic demon that cracks jokes and enjoys the suffering of children while he murders them in their sleep
- if that horrible demon is also a pedophile, then we should boycott the franchise and all marketed products altogether.

At least we all seem to agree that pedophilia is bad. I guess that’s a positive.

#12347 1 year ago

What an odd hill to stake a claim on. It is a FICTIONAL character, in a movie.

#12348 1 year ago

Let's not come down on them too hard...there may be personal reasons for the stance, which..fine, but it's kind of a 'don't like it don't buy it' situation.

#12349 1 year ago
Quoted from Capn12:

I guess he's pretty evil with the murdering, but also a pedophile? That's too evil!

Quoted from TreyBo69:

Surely, someone with such a steadfast stance, would EVER own a Ghostbusters or other JT game, right? I mean, I already know the answer to that, but it is rather interesting.
