Eight Ball

Bally Eight Ball, designed in February 1977 and released in September of the same year, with a Production-Run of 20,230 Units, held the position of the most successful Flipper-Game of all time until 1992, when The Addams Family took over with 20,270 Units, followed later with 1000 more for a Special-Edition.
