Love this machine. I have around 35 plays and no sign of slowing down! The team did a great job of implementing theme and ruleset that fits Jaws perfectly! Great visuals and smooth gameplay! The whole family is loving it!

WOW just WOW!!!! This game shoots absolutely amazing and is super fast. The rules are super easy to understand which I really appreciate. Cabinet artwork and backglass look amazing as well. There is nothing wrong with the Richard Dreyfuss call out they actually sound really good. The cinematic music really adds to the feel of the game and brings you into the Jaws universe. I really think I might like this better than Godzilla. I have nothing to bad to say about this pin at the moment. I will update if something changes.

The bump in the right outlane and the life ring earn are both super cool fun features to this game.

Well first off, I've owned this game since Sept 2021 and my pin was one of the first out the door being #29. The game should have never originally shipped with the code it came with, it was far too early of code. To put into perspective the menu had volume control ( up was down and down was up) and had an option to turn flippers "on" or "off". That was it for the menu. The game code was so poor and undeveloped. I was truly disappointed. I have no idea why I kept it but it did. Well, FFWD to today and its' latest code 1.15a and my opinion is entirely different. It is incredible what good code does for a game. The elevators are faster, there are many more opponents, the sound is better and it is finally fun to play. This game has come a long way, it's fabulous...and I can't believe I just wrote that. I hope you who is reading this review gets to play one some day with the new code.

All my games have a custom apron card. Note that they all claim each game is the best in the collection so don't come at me; I admit there are better games in the world than Jaws Pro. Having said this, here's my apron card—

Jaws Pro (2024) is the best game in the NCP collection and the fifth design from Stern's acclaimed "Team Elwin." Look—not everybody loves these films and I hesitate to perpetuate myths that make us irrationally fearful of the natural world. But the geometry of this game is creative and fun, the rules and modes are absorbing and understandable, and the fin is a really cool gadget. When things heat up as you get the hang of this game, the drama and excitement of the films may draw you in. Play this game a few times and see if you become a selachimorphaphile yourself!

I can't say this game is bad, but it lacks something for me to like it. I always feel like if you hit just about anywhere you end up completing quite a few objectives. It's complicated, confusing, it goes in all directions. So yes, it flows well and the construction of the playfield is very good but it doesn't have any soul, the sounds and music aren't great either. I need to dream while playing pinball, with this one, that's not the case, I think I attach a lot of importance to the atmosphere and the universe, sterns are not for me ...I'm going back to spooky!

Very good game. Love the left orbit shot to far back ramp. Great theme integration. The cut scenes do slow down the action but I find it fast and fun. May have to trade for one.

I truly think this game is underrated,the flow of the game is really good and the shots are pretty smooth. I don't know all the rules of the game but I kept coming back to play it. I heard a lot of people didn't like the earlier code, but the most recent code is really good and I know it will get better. The pro art package is not my favorite but it's the game that matters. I truly don't think you will be disappointed if you give it a chance.

Fun game. Theme does NOTHING for me and the music is fine( again not a huge rush fan)

Shots are fast and tight but hitable and a blast. Time Machine reminds me of LOTR magnet shot.

Surprisingly fun( I’m talking about the premium)

It’s a fun game to play on location but would never own. Flippers are a little lifeless and the shots are tight( not a bad thing) but repetitive.

Beautiful looking game and bookshelf flipper is cool but it just doesn’t wow me

Yes, the back glass is horrible. However, I like the cheesiness and prefer the original to the alternate.

The sounds are great! It has really familiar, sounding Arcade music and sounds, and they are very fitting to the theme.

The popup drop targets (snipers) are a great challenge and the related sounds are great. This might have been the first game to feature these (?). They are super fun. For reference, they function the same as the 'bad guys' on Cactus Canyon.

This is a fun game with fun challenges and is a great game to play with other players.

For an 80's game this is packed with features, it's a fantastic layout that utilizes a cool captive ball to inline drop setup, a magnet, and even a 5 ball Multiball! Had I seen this in an arcade in the 80's I think my head might of exploded. Check it out if you see one in the wild.

I recently played the pro at the game gallery, Langhorne, PA. I liked it and fun game, but after 10 or so games it was time to move on :-). I felt that stern is simply banking on the license selling this pin and not so much the game play. Let's just say it is no Godzilla, or Maiden. I look forward to playing the LE or Premium as I am sure it will be better... but was looking for something unique as Elvin seems to put into his game designs.

I had the opportunity recently to play several games on this pin and to be honest, it is super fun! I really don't get why most bash this game. Yes, it is super cheesy animations - which is why I rated that aspect of this pin low. However, the audio, music, artwork, shots and flow is super fun. I would absolutely pick one of these up - especially that prices have come down on them. Personally I think this is AP best pin :-).

The Simpsons Pinball Party is a very fun machine to play, and the machine rules and design are complimentary of the theme which makes this machine very fun to play. The upper playfield is one of the best I have played in my time and the ball lock couch is such a clever idea. Many games today have hidden ball locks, but I am in the camp that I like to see the balls being locked so I can always have a quick reference of how many more balls I need to lock to engage a multiball mode. This is a well done pinball machine and this machine is still a blast to play over 20 years after it was released.

I feel like I either don’t understand the rules or that there’s only half a game programmed into the pin right now. Fun, though!

This game is very fast and a lot of fun to play . Ruleset takes a while to learn like most modern pins . Upper playfield fun to hit but over quickly . Spinning the reel up there enough times gives you a great bonus . The premium or LE is the way to go because the shark popping up is one of the highlights of the game . Early code but good use of movie assets . The Jaws music adds a new dimension of depth and suspense to the game . Right upper flipper lock is cool . Elwin did it again with a great game that we can all enjoy for ages !!!

The Ripley version is a nice improvement on the original PB standard version. The amount of upgrades and added artwork really add to an already enjoyable machine. I'm hoping the reliability continues to improve. The sound system is great, the music, sounds, and video package are all amazing. Easily one of the best bang for your buck machines available and it's truly unique.

Played the original on location so my review my be lacking on the sound...this game belongs in the top ten. Just amazing it still sits among the best in the face of modern pins. Even with the limitations of a DMD...Drac Attack, Its Alive and soooo many other modes are fantastic pinball moments. Its got solid flow, but I find it a bit more clunky than a Godzilla or deadpool...
