It\u2019s the final PINcast of 2023 and it\u2019s a whopper, as Martin Ayub from Pinball News<\/em> and Jonathan Joosten from Pinball Magazine<\/em> are joined by David Fix, Executive Vice President of American Pinball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

November 2023 PINcast<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

David discusses the state of the company as they move towards year end, the big push to get Galactic Tank Force<\/em> Signature Editions in front of buyers in time for the holidays, the next four games they have in development both licensed and original-themed, including one with a special place in the team\u2019s hearts, a special company discount only available for the next ten days, while also addressing some of the more wild speculation on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While there weren\u2019t any new physical games launched this month, there was a brand new title for Multimorphic\u2019s P3<\/sup> system, plus a huge number of software updates for existing games, adding new wizard modes, new challenges, new achievement badges to collect, lots of rule enhancements and many more improvements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s Back-to-the-Future as older titles get re-run, while it\u2019s also \u2018Topper Time\u2019 with original manufacturer and third-party toppers launched for many different titles.  With some games slated to have unique toppers from up to three different companies, it seems no pinball is complete without an interactive contraption sitting on the backbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Martin and Jonathan were also at the Dutch Pinball Open Expo in Veldhoven near Eindhoven, reporting and hosting two editions of their So You Think You Know Pinball?<\/em> prize quiz.  Dutch Pinball also had a big presence there with The Big Lebowski<\/em>, but were there also some clues about their upcoming second game announcement?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s also all the latest news, production updates and announcements from every current or wannabe pinball manufacturer, including the possibility of a new title being announced within the next few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s all packed into this month\u2019s brand new, extended PINcast. So, make sure you haven\u2019t missed out on any of the excitement from the pinball world by listening to the podcast the pinball industry listens to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
