Hurray! A Simpsons Pinball Game!

by

I think at some point, FOX will have a hard time transforming anything else into the Simpsons; they are simply running out of stuff. But for now, we have The Simpsons Pinball game. I haven’t been to an arcade since the eighties and so I’m not sure how popular pinball machines are these days, but if you like the Simpsons and you have a spare $5,000, then this pinball game is all yours.

The game features familiar decoration of The Simpson family, tons of sound effects and audio clips, and flashing lights. It also shakes and rings as you go about scoring.

Also…

There is an interesting feature which is related to playing with or without coins, this means that you can use it at home and make it a freebie for everyone, or you can place the pinball machine on a bar or restaurant, and make other people pay for the coins.

I love the Simpsons as much as the next guy, but spending $5,000 on a pinball machines seems a little over the top. That is when your average fan crosses the line and enters into the world of Creepy Scary Fandom.

P.S.- I’m starting a new feature here at Watching Simpsons. Since every liked the last poll we did (Top Ten Simpsons Characters) I decided we would have Poll Thursday. So stay tuned for that post later this week.
