Hey! Does anyone know about SMW flipper game and Lethal weapon flipper game? Well it is a little interesting how they got the idea to make top games into flipper games. It was cool to play SMW flipper game, but I wasn't so satisfied with Lethal weapon. Both of them where good, but the thing that wasn't that cool in Europe is that the trigger in Lethal Weapon was formed as a pistol, a little hard to pull it fast when you're not used to it... 8)
Actually, not all was thinking. Some was plotting, some was planning, and finally the explaining of my plan which I plotted after I thought of it.

Is flipper another word for pinball? I remember a Nintendo magazine giving away the full size Super Mario pinball machine in a competition. It would be so cool to own one of those!

I used to play lots of pinball games, though I don't remember the name to any of them. I do recall that a company named Williams was attached to most of them. I really should find a place with pinball games again... They were a blast!

In Germany we call pinball flipper.
It appears that it's the same in Norway. Interesting.
I never liked pinball games. Most of the games I tried were unrealistic. I prefer the real pinball machines, those where you can REALLY tilt. :P

I've played a Lethal Weapon Pinball machine, but that was over 10 years ago. I do greatly enjoy a good round of pinball though :)

The number of flipper machines has decreased quite much in the last years around my place. I also haven't touched one for ages.

In America, we call certain kinds of dolphins "flipper". This thread has me wondering... Why didn't they make a 'Marble Madness' pinball game? That would have fit perfectly (they could have used REAL marbles and stuff). Or a dolphin "flipper" game.
