Feels like playing a NES fighting game but with pinball. Funny, great shots, and that mini deadpool feels really good to bash. Don't really like the voice of deadpool that much although the more I play it he is starting to grow on me.

Played at Pinballz in Austin. Really enjoyed the call outs, music, & fantastic art work. Unlike other reviewers, I kind of liked the animated Lil’ Deadpool. Just one more example of the self-deprecating humor of the movies. Really had fun with gameplay. Playfield has several nice shots, multiball is great fun with call outs triggered almost simultaneously- sensory overload is sensational!

Practically perfect. Themewise, you know you have a hit when wolverine is a supporting character. This is a very fun machine with great rules and a wonderfully playing field. Hitting the twisting shot up into the Katana lock is great, the long orbit on the premium is even better.
The adoption of video-game mechanics on the LCD really nail DPs signature 4th wall breaking narrative style. Great Machine.

I would put this up with Iron Maiden in terms of the newer Stern machines. I didn't like Deadpool at first but I was finally able to play it for a couple hours and now its one of my favorites. The battles are tons of fun and give the game a ton of character. I am not a huge Deadpool fan (I don't dislike him) but the theme is whatever to me, same with Godzilla but they are both so good! I think the game is a little too "red" for my tastes but I get it. I am definitely considering adding this one to my collection!

Deadpool is legitimately good! Not a particularly deep game, you basically set up fights and work through them. And the callouts are very annoying, but overall a really solid game.
The 16-bit feel of the game is charming, and the playfield is accessible. There’s not great flow, but everything you have to hit on the board is fair.
There are some games that are a high wire act like TMNT. That’s not Deadpool. It’s easy, fun, accessible and reasonably deep. Not every pin needs to be difficult!

If I needed to sum up this game in a single word, it would be "Wow"
This game has some great flow and some very interesting shots. I really enjoy the calls out and way this game turns the concept of a super hero flight into pinball shots.
The music is not the greatest, but it is not a rock game to it suffices. This one will be in my collection a long long time.

This game doesn't get old. I also love how the pro is just as much fun to play as the LE or Premium. Thanks STERN for making something this much fun accessible to the masses.

Fun pin that I had for a while. I think it is rated a bit too high . There are not as many satisfying shots as some of the other newer pins and some older pins as well. Still fun but I prefer the 3 flipper Sterns with more shots.

I find this to be a slightly above average Stern machine.
The good:
The artwork, code, and sounds are all solid. The animations are some of Stern's best, they're subtle, but add to the game without overwhelming it. The gameplay of trying to fight the different villains is easy to understand and fun to play.
The bad:
I simply don't like the design of the playfield. The AFM like baby dead pool feels too close to the flippers that shooting for it seems too risky. On top of that, on the various Dead Pools I've played, the lock shot constantly fails even when you hit it with good power. With this shot being so inconsistent and the baby dead pool being so risky, the right side of the playfield feels like it should be avoided. I find myself just ski passing the ball over to the right flipper over and over again. The upper right section of the playfield also feels underutilized with a rather large 4 lanes and pop bumpers section filling the void.
The theme integration is fairly average. That being said, the katana was a nice touch.

So I have owned 2 pros before finally talking myself into upgrading to the premium and I must say I am extremely glad that I did. The looping of the left orbit is a total game changer in not only fun but game play. Not to mention I don’t ever remember getting so many booms before on my pro. The drop targets alone to me were enough justification as to the superiority if the premium/LE over the Pro. The disco ball while cool is hard to see. All in all I cannot be happier with my upgrade and totally understand how this game is top 5, my only wish was the pro cabinet artwork was on the premium but in a lineup of games you don’t see that anyways.
