Wipe Out is a pin that I had wanted for years. I found one several years ago and, while other pins have come and gone, this one I can't seem to let go of. Not the deepest ruleset but some challenging shots and hilarious call-outs make it a keeper in my book! The ski lift and slalom course are very cool playfield toys that are well executed. Gottlieb System 3 reliability is a plus too. Let's show some love!

I just replaced the DMD in my Wipeout with a color LCD using the DMD Extender from Dr Pinball. I went with white and shades of blues to keep with the snow/ice theme. I may try some other variations of colors but I'm really pleased with the way it turned out! Here's an in-game video:

It's hard to play a decent game with someone leaniing over the machine taking video but you get the idea.

Good stuff. As a teed off owner that snowboards I've always wanted to give one of these a run. Icy LEDs look great.

Hands down my favorite table so far... It's gets the most use in my home arcade!

Just finished my Wipeout resto! Powdercoating done by DB Powdercoating in Glen Burnie. They did the rails, lock bar, legs, coin door and all wire ramps in white with a blue metal flake. I also did white molding on the head. New rubbers including white urethane flipper rubbers. Full Cointaker LEDs including illuminated flipper buttons. New shooter rod with white ball. Spent more than I'd ever get from selling it but that's ok because it's not for sale! Sorry for the crappy phone pics. I'll try to get some pics with a real camera tonight. Maybe the LEDs won't look so purple! LOL! UPDATED PICS! WOO HOO!!!!!

Hi there , I'm a new owner of a Wipe Out machine.
I'll have some work on this one to give it a new life...
Want to pass it to LED , I'll have to clean it all , the playfield is quite dirty and want to make everything shinny

I work on a newlook alternative backglass custom image, and will design assorted custom apron cards

It is a great game! I played this at a bar in 2002 at the age of 21 and was like I need a pinball machine in my Bachelor pad. Just like Adam Sandler in "Big Daddy" and future movie with Ashton Kutcher "What happens in Vegas".

Guys somebody could help me with the Ref of the Centre Post ("saver" between the flippers) , it's missing on the machine I received, thank you

Come from 1 speaker or is is a sound board/rom issue i may be experiencing?

What are the cabinet dimensions for this one? Similar to an 80B? Is the head easy to remove?
