Came and went after 10 months, largely due to space availability. I love the Quests, however the 3 Battles become slightly repetitive as you advance thru the game. The katana ramp can be touchy. Scores can become inflated for people who have adjusted/bent their SNIKT target to make the shot SNIKT shot into katana more frequently. I'd like to revisit this game in a premium version someday.

The game is a blast. Simple enough for a newbie but deep enough for a seasoned pinhead. Great shots, battles and quests are a unique element, disco multi ball and Mechsuit are phenomenal. Playfield artwork by Zombiyeti is gorgeous. Sound design music and call outs are second to none, honestly. There is SO MUCH variety here. Truly one of Sterns best efforts. BUT...the orbit shots can be a bit clunky and ramp entries richoochet and bounce out frequently. This pin absolutely has to be setup perfectly to achieve a fluid smooth play but don’t let that stop you. I am NOT a fan of Marvel or any superhero type themes whatsoever but this game is so much fun I had to buy one.

This is a really fun and unique game. It's just so different from everything else. It would be great in a home collection.

A friend just got a Deadpool Pro and invited me over to try it out.
I want one.
1) It is fast.
2) It is fast.
3) it is fast.
4) there are some nice shots here.
5) Ball time is decent, but it is a short ball time machine.
6) Rules don't seem to be too complicated.
It is a nice playing pin.

Uh.Maze.Balls! Amazing. Outstanding.
Balanced, fast, controllable. Easy to understand. Doesn't take an expert to hit the shots but you have to pay attention to them.
Wow this game is fun. Once you learn the battles and where to put the ball you can get multi ball and extra balls all day long.
Just flat out fun pinball.

This machine is first and foremost FUN! The art is top tier for sure. The rule structure is fantastic and not hard to grasp. The light show is decent, but replacing those red playfield LED's (actually all) with Sunlight, along with spots and a trough strip, goes a long way. The callouts and music are good.
Two of the most satisfying shots in Pinball, IMHO, are in this game as well; the right ramp AND especially the SNIKT ricochet shot for PF multipliers!
I'm hoping for at least one more code update to add more high score tables, with games like IMDN & JP2 having quite a few, I don't think it's asking too much.

Deadpool is a game I loved to hate for a long time. For some reason, I just really struggled to every shoot very well on it, but I've come to really like it. Although I think there are certain aspects of the rules that lead to very unbalanced scoring. At the same time the playfield multiples that I think cause much of this issue are from one of the great shots in pinball, the snikt shot. There have been games where I just get lucky and hit the snikt shot a couple times early on and blow it up because of the multipliers, but it's always a lot of fun. Each of the battles is unique and give enough variety in the game. I also really enjoy the art and the humorous callouts. All in all, Deadpool is definitely a game I would consider owning and alway will step up and play.

One of the best modern pinball machines I see a lot in location! Initially hated it because of it being too easy if set up normal (I thought it would be easy even if set up hard). Rules are pretty simple but never get old, but it's very hard getting to Mr. Sinister! Another thing I like about this pinball is that shots aren't similar to other machines. Artwork is well made too. The only thing I criticize about this machine is, like written before, that you have too long ball times if it's set up normal.

This one ranks high.
Right from the start it's a gorgeous art package, from cabinet to backglass and playfield. A lot of attention has been paid to the playfield layout, structure and details. The ramps, toys and different theme-based gadgets, like the shuriken-shaped bumper caps, all make for a great looking pinball machine. I am especially impressed by the inside cabinet art/decor on the top end, together with cool and funny extras like the chimichanga truck, which I assume must look even more awesome in the 3D-LE-version of the game. The main features on the playfield, the Katana trail/lock ramp and the bobble head target/lock area are incredibly fun and work well with the whole theme.
Gameplay is rather fast, although not on the same insane level as Star Trek etc. There is a smooth flow and a wide variety of shots here.
The lighting effects on this game deserve to be mentioned. They are nothing short of amazing. I really can't think of any Stern from recent years that even comes close to this game in that aspect. What a great job and a very rewarding addition to the gameplay. Even the LCD-animations are top notch.
No real weak points here. I did however experience a couple of real strange airballs with one of them jumping from playfield up on the Katana-trail. Fun - but weird and hopefully something that is a result of unsufficent adjustments rather than poor playtesting. I'm not crazy about the Deadpool theme altogether, and that goes for the absurd humour as well. But this game really manages to make a colourful and a fun ride out of the whole story.
If I were to change or mod anything, I would replace those spring-like arms on the bobble head figure, they look more lame/cheap than cool. But thats about it from the cosmetical complaint department....
Summary: One of the best superhero games and second only to Spider-Man. This table outshines X-men, Transformers etc. with ease. The balance between gameplay, gimmicks, visual effects and overall smoothness is nearly perfect.
