What was your favorite pinball machine of the year in 2023?
This could be a new game released- OR -
any you picked up, restored/repaired, or simply enjoyed playing the most this year!!

That’s tough!! I picked up Alien Star, Deadly Weapon, Jacks Open and the rare pre-war Safety Zone. All of them are awesome!!
Finally got Coney Island working, as well as Lady Luck. It’s been a great year for Pinball in my life!
Deadly Weapon and Sorcerer have been my favorites this year. Did a lot of minor tweaking on Sorcerer and now it’s hands down the best playing game of my collection and of any games I’ve played this year.

I just got into owning pins this year / and have to say The Big Lebowski is my fave, but i like all my pins! alien, queen, godzilla, cactus canyon, and jurassic park!
Quoted from Stebel:Got my Holy Grail - Black Knight LE with topper and shoot rod.
Congrats! Nice find. I never even knew this one had a topper.
Started 2023 with a dip in a new Future Spa. That was quickly followed by a Rush to my next new instrumental game. Finally, I closed out 2023 hunting down game while exploring a new Frontier.
Just the fact the Labyrinth was a surprise release and looks so good makes it my 2023. Finally Henson and Bowie make it to pinball heaven.
I took a flyer on Pinball Brothers this year, buying both Alien LV and Queen Rhapsody...and boy am I glad I did. Both wonderful games that play completely differently. And before you ask, my game of the year for 2024 will be Jaws LE, simply because it's probably the only game I'm buying.

+recoding my Galaxy!
Merry Christmas everybody!!
So I had to really think about this and hear me out…
I feel like my Game of the Year is Galactic Tank Force. Trying to stay positive on that doomed hype train while tracking games down to put some time in was the most memorable thing for me in pinball this year. In the end we got a solid B grade game that will likely never shake off its launch stink.
Finally got Pinbot up and running, he's been disassembled since 2016 so it's been a long time coming.
Fire sale STTNG is still coming along little by little, it needs so much replaced, but for what I paid I have plenty of room.
Picked up a Black Knight in May that I just finished playfield touch-ups today.
Of the three, Pinbot is my PMOTY.
Man, loved Foo Fighters, the Godfather and Final Resistance but I’ve been having the most fun with Venom!
Quoted from TheBananaPeel69:I got into pinball this year, so all 14 games I’ve owned deserve a spot.
Talk about diving in.
JB 60th would be my last of the year.
Quoted from trilogybeer:Subhumans
Absolutely awesome pin. The smoke machine made my lungs hurt… and the room made me dizzy.
5/7 The Perfect Game, The Perfect Experience.
Foo for new games but probably BKSOR pro overall. Got it in a trade and the whole family loves it. Just so damn fun.
Quoted from TheBananaPeel69:I got into pinball this year, so all 14 games I’ve owned deserve a spot.
Wonka deserves a top spot in games of 2023 for my family.
And I deserved that Shadow. Thak you very much!
