  • Pinball Magazine & Pinball News PINcast April 2024 recap
    May 2 2024

    As we start the month of May it’s time to join Jonathan Joosten from Pinball Magazine and Martin Ayub from Pinball News for their look back at all the excitement from the pinball industry throughout April in their latest Pinball Industry News PINcast. The month began with the announcement, reveal and launch party for the new ABBA game from Pinball Brothers. Both Jonathan and Martin travelled to the Swedish city of Örebro to experience both versions of the company’s third game for themselves and to report on the launch event. Meanwhile, another new game is revealed as Homepin also announce their third title. Following Thunderbirds and This Is Spinal Tap, the new game is another licence, The Blues Brothers. As revealed in last month’s PINcast the new title will feature open source software, but there are many more interesting details about the game to discuss. If you thought the demise of Deeproot Pinball signalled the end of the line for those games in development at the company, there’s news of the possible revival of titles such as Retro Atomic Zombie Adventureland, Magic Girl and more. Plus, there’s lots more news of pinball companies exhibiting at shows, all the latest code updates, new videos and articles, the potential timescale for upcoming new game announcements, and a novel way to get help building games.

    They talk about the latest Pinball Brothers release, ABBA, to find out how the game came to be created, what's in the game right now, what's going to be in it eventually, what changes they have made, and Pinball Brothers' plans for production of this and future titles.

    They discuss the recent ABBA pinball launch party, the multiple elements which go to make up the game, who was involved in creating all the assets, and the possibility of a third, unlimited version of the game.

    There's so much to discuss, so join Daniel as he explains the rules and how it all ties-in so closely to the ABBA Voyage holographic stage show.

  • Pinball Magazine & Pinball News PINcast March 2024 recap
    Apr 2 2024

    The start of another new month means it’s time to join Jonathan Joosten from Pinball Magazine and Martin Ayub from Pinball News for their look back at all the exciting news from the pinball world throughout March in their Pinball Industry News PINcast. There are two new games to discuss this month – one already launched and one about to be revealed – plus a radical update to another new title. American Pinball released their latest title with a tribute to legendary pinball designer, Barry Oursler, in their Barry O’s Barbecue Challenge game. A dozen models were shipped to locations across the US for public play the day following the reveal, after which it became the star of American Pinball’s stand at the Texas Pinball Festival. Just as this month’s PINcast was being recorded, Pinball Brothers confirmed that their third game title would be based on the hugely-popular Swedish band ABBA. A full reveal is coming shortly, while there will be a launch party to mark exactly 50 years to the day since the group was launched onto the global stage by winning the Eurovision Song Contest. There’s also much more news from Pinball Brothers with some personnel changes at the very top of the company. While not announcing their next game just yet, Dutch Pinball celebrate a milestone by launching a new offshoot called Dutch Pinball Exclusive (DPX) to produce short-run titles of 500 or fewer units. It hasn’t been officially confirmed, but the likely first DPX title is discussed along with potential timescales for production. Last month there was news of a record-breaking auction price for a Jersey Jack Pinball Elton John Collector’s Edition machine, but this month that record was itself smashed. Get all the details. Turner Pinball returned to the Texas Pinball Festival with a very different look to their Ninja Eclipse game, taking onboard much of the feedback from their appearance at Pinball Expo last October. Find out what’s new and how the game plays as part of the extensive TPF 2024 show coverage. All this and much, much more is packed into this latest edition of the Pinball Industry News PINcast.
