Deadpool is one of those I want to love but the play just isn't fun for me. I can't put my finger on why, but it just always looks more fun than it is to play. That said, I keep playing it hoping it will "click" for me and play as fun as I want it to. lol

Very typical George Gomez. Ton of fun, super use of theme, a little bit easy/shallow but draws friends/family/non pinball hardcore folks to it.

Art is excellent, toys are great and unique. IMO, the best superhero game by a wide margin. Probably my second favorite Stern(LOTR) and Gomez (MB by a hair)

Plays fast and fluid, great layout. My only critique would be that I find the long animations are really more for the enjoyment of folks watching you play rather than for the player.

Wife and kids are on me to make this my next pin if I get another.

C’Mon it’s DeadPool! Let’s just point out the obvious first.
Artwork: possibly the best in all of pinball!?! Is this even debatable?!

Fun: you’re literally playing as Deadpool beating the $hit out of villians on a screen. Is there a better thing to watch in all of pinball on the LCD?!? Let me answer. No there isn’t!

Shots: the scoop, middle spinner and Snikt shots are my favorite.
The other shots are fine but that weird shot to the left of the scoop is weird.

Toys: let’s be honest…. What Toys?!? A $hitty little Comic DP bobble head?! Maybe we can count the LCD screen?!? Please don’t count the katana…. Please don’t do it…. Oh there’s there pops.

Code: it’s just too linear. I know some people say it’s a shallow game but I think when you look most people have never beat this game. This game needed more villains and a different path to keep it fresh.

I’ll say this much is this day and age it’s hard to find a pin with character and this pin has it. It’s a Top 10 game for me but they either nailed it on this or missed. Art? Check Fun? Check. Shots? Check. Toys? Missed. Code? Missed character. Hell yes!

Deadpool is just plain fun! The battle modes are my favorite part. This game does not take itself seriously, but it is serious fun.

I enjoy the team-up options and progressive battles. It's a fast game that has long-lasting appeal.

Deadpool is a fantastic game and it’s one that, in my opinion, you don’t have to be a pro to step up and enjoy. George Gomez did a great job in delivering yet another fun shooter. While there is a little bit of clunk up the middle, it doesn’t detract from it being a pretty well flowing game. The katana ramp is extremely satisfying to hit, especially when you finish a Ninjapocolypse combo! The spinners on the game, especially the left orbit spinner, are especially feel good! The pro plays faster than the premium due to there being stand ups and opposed to drop targets. For me, I enjoy the pro more than the premium in terms of speed. The rule set is fantastic and relatively straight forward. There is enough depth there to keep one coming back, but for me, I do tend to get a little bored with this one as I have found that I do attack it a similar way every time. Mech-suit Multiball is still one of my favorite multi balls to play, especially when you can get that snkkkt! target going! Which btw, the Snkkkt! target is an awesome challenge to hit and when timed right, can help you blow up the score on this game! But it does take some dialing in and adjustments to maintain a consistent shot, but hey, that’s pinball! Lastly, the artwork is some of Zombie Yeti’s best all around. Ultimately, this game continues to hold a place in our lineup at home as it is one of my gf’s favorites. Sometimes I feel like I would move it along for something more challenging, but other days, I enjoy it still being here.

Beautiful game that shoots well. Really fun game to play, but may have limited depth for a home game. Lighting and colors on the playfield are excellent. There are cool features like a katana the ball rolls down, and drop targets then expose a ball lock that you can claim multi ball by hitting them again. Interesting playfield layout.

Diggin' it here lately..

Several "ramp/lanes" to keep it interesting. Sword ball lock, several pop-bumpers and stand up targets. Upkicker, drop targets used in an interesting way.. Animations in the display tie in with the game.. Overall - pretty fun game - especially if you like X-men/Deadpool.

Man this one is rare in my area, but I loved the 5 or so games I played on it.

This is one of the most fun pinball machines I’ve ever played. The layout, code, and theme integration is outstanding. It is a very approachable game with lots of variety and ultimately is actually funny.

The code, character fights, collecting weapons, fighting ninjas, etc. are integrated seamlessly. Always seems like there is something to do and something going on. This game is not repetitious for me at all…maybe a few callouts get old, but so many ways to score and progress.

I love the layout. Unique and doesn’t feel like any other game. I also have to say this pin has amazing music! A ton of variety of music are both funny and make the game exciting to play.
There are no clips from the movies. However, they seem to have the spirit and vibe of the movies well encapsulated.

The downside for me might be some long game times (which is a positive for some). There is no special toy or any unique tech. I don’t love ‘little Deadpool.’ But the three drop targets with a target/ball-hold are fun.
Glad I own it. It would be very tough to ever trade this. It is also my son’s favorite game.

In the space of 6 months I went from "I don't see what the fuss is about", to "ok now I see what the fuss about, let's buy a Pro" to "now I have the Pro I think this is good but might be a rotator pin" to " ok this game is so cool and replayable, it's bolted to the floor". What a ride.

Now I've tricking it out with new lighting and Premium toys. It's a keeper for sure. Highlights include, the Katana and Snikt shot - two of the most satisfying shots in pinball, nice simple code that never becomes and chore and some of the best callouts and music to grace a machine. There is a reason they are still making this machine. Probably Gomez best.

Deadpool is so fun but at the same time so easy. The theme itswlf kerps you coming back. The katana shot is one of the most pleasant shots in pinball. The cabinet art is perfect. The translite art average.

This is another of my favorite's (Along with Jaws, Godzilla, and Jurassic Park) and the only Pro on my shopping list... This one plays great and you really aren't missing much to save a few thousand dollars going Pro vs. Premium. I love the animations and Deadpool is just hilarious. After just a few minutes playing you almost start taking on his persona...

I played this game about a hundred games. I find that it is undoubtedly the best game for playing in a group with friends that I have played: the rules and strategies are very simple, and everyone can quickly have fun. The atmosphere of the game is fun, the music is very good, it is a beautiful object. But to play alone, even if it's a good game, but for me it lacks depth...

Ok ok. I get it now. Took me 20 plus games to finally see it. Game is pure fun. Tons of toys, ramps, targets, shots etc. and a scoop as well. Always something fun to do and I like the timed fighting sequences. I love my JP Pro and DP would compliment it well in my small collection. Less strategy and more timed action. I need to better understand the rules cause it seems certain multiballs reward you with massive points. I can go from 30 million to 300 million back to 30 million. I also am not great. My budget doesn’t allow me to pay up for a premium (for now) but with this one and $300 of mods, pro is more than enough to play. I even like pro translite better than Premium. I am off to find a premium in the wild to make sure if give it a fair shake but digging Deadpool Pro.

This game is just so fun. Great shots. Lots of flow. The Ninja ramp is an incredible shot esp with 3 straight skill shots to Ninja MB. Orbits work great. My only issue is that the ball never goes around the loop, it just comes back but at least it still scores. Sounds, artwork are all terrific.

All in all, a top notch game.

Great machine, I played this about 30 times on location and loved it enough I bought a Premium a few months later. great machine with great callouts and easy to learn rules. Fun shots and great look and feel! Highly Recommend!

This is a game where the the rules are engaging and nicely balanced. Each mode and battle stands out, giving us a good variety. The two-flipper layout is absolutely top-notch, and the animations are some of the best I've seen. It's just a blast to play!

Though the multipliers present a challenge, they add an interesting layer for high-level play. While the Pro version may not include the disco ball and figures found in the Premium, it still offers an incredible experience. Having a wide selection of battles from the start enriches the game even further.

Bottom line: This game is fantastic! Diving into the world of Deadpool pinball with the Pro version is an exhilarating adventure.

Really fun shots on this pin. Sometimes it can feel a bit repetitive but i think the shots are hard and that balances it out. My primary arcade has non stern rubbers and powerful slings which give it alot of horizontal movement that trains your nudging and control. Havent ever made it to the final battle but the base code is great. It couldve been a movie pin but it takes pride that it isnt and leans into the humor and style of deadpool as a character well.

The Deadpool (Pro) machine I played was excellent. I really enjoyed the playfield layout, and all the shots were satisfying but at the same time difficult to master. The Lil Deadpool multiball as well as the Ninja sword handle lock multiball were super fun to play and I found myself chuckling and watching the screen (instead of watching the ball on the playfield).

This is one of those games I really hope to own one day but I feel like it won’t last long in my collection. The battle sequencing with each character is nice but if I wanted to play mortal combat I would play an arcade game, not pinball. The shots are great, the lighting is good and it is legit fun but I just don’t feel like it has staying power… but it’s fun! This one really tore me. Edit: got to put a full hour on this one and man I just had a blast. I kept coming back! No idea why but this is a really good game!

This machine has a unique playfield, nice looking cabinet, plays amazing and all that on a Pro.
One of the best Stern machines ever, no doubt!
