I think it would be great to make a old school pin with modern play. IE the graphics and sounds are all classic; the play is more modern and fast. With some old school touches such as star roll overs, and spinners which I feel do not get used enough. I think that the classic art combined with the modern elements would make for a great playing and super cool looking game. That is if someone is artistic enough to make the art representative of a new game but with the graphics with old school flavour.

As for the theme...perhaps a few "pin up" girls, with a motor bike, classic roadster, drive-in diner pop bumbers, drive-in movie multiball, big brawl super multiball, Roller Rink mini playfield, jukebox for locking a ball, a drag race ramp, captured ball hit gets you off work! There are propably many more 50's type things I am missing, but make it generic, not after a movie, or show, just the era and if all goes right it should be great fun.


Current Lineup:
Black Knight, Riverboat Gambler, Ripley's Believe it or Not, Flintstones, Orbitor 1, Wipe Out, Breakshot, The Simpsons Pinball Party, Fish Tales, Eight Ball and a 60 in 1 Cocktail.

How about an "Army of Darkness" pinball machine.
The movie poster could be the back glass and there is a series of graphic novels (comic books) to use as the play field graphics.

It has a number of one liners to use as triggered sounds, groovy

At one point i was cosidering redoing my "mars Trek" to a really simple "evil dead" conversion... AOD would be much better, but i figured since Mars trek has the "spell mars trek" bonus, i could just change out the letters!

Still considering it...

Another neat idea for a pin would be "Kolchak: The Night Stalker" based off the old 70's television series.
It was the inspiration for the x-files tv series and would be a cool companion pin to an x-files pin.

There is currently a graphic novel/comic book version available that could be used as material for the play field graphics.

Seeing it is an older show an EM pin would be a good choice.
There was even an episode that was based in an arcade when a pinball player was killed under strange circumstances.

Fathom would work as a donor pin (if it didn't cost stupid amounts of money)

Seawitch would work, too

...

And it amazes me that there wasn't a single Zombie-themed pin.  I mean, there's a futuristic spa-themed pinball machine for chrissakes!
