Episode 65: Fallout Pinball Rumors, Goonies at Expo & Another Pinball Company?!

About this episode

Fallout is coming… and if the rumors are true, Stern might be about to drop something pretty damn wild. On this episode of The Flipside Podcast, I’m fired up and we’re covering a TON. We get into everything we think we know about the rumored Keith Elwin Fallout pinball machine, why I still don’t think Elwin has made a bad game, the rumored lower playfield, vault, Nuka Cannon, possible Stern pricing changes… and whether Fallout could be one of those games people buy simply because Elwin’s name is on it. But that’s just the beginning. We also talk about the Pokémon Home Edition showing up at Costco and why, whether you want one or not, I actually think products like this could be incredibly important for bringing new people into pinball. Then we go down the rabbit hole of affordability in this hobby. I talk about Pawlowski Pinball’s mission to build a legitimately GOOD affordable pinball machine, the newly announced BUMP 001, and the bigger question: Do we really need ANOTHER pinball company making $10,000+ machines? And somehow we still have more… 🔥 Spooky Pinball and the heavily rumored Goonies machine 🔥 Could Goonies actually show up at Pinball Expo? 🔥 Why I’m nervous
