The Flipside Pinball Podcast

• Episode 27: Barrels of Speculation - So Many New Pinball Machines in 2025!

  In this episode, we dive deep into the latest pinball rumors, industry news, and some wild speculation—because why not? We kick things off by discussing what Barrels of Fun might have in store for their next game and explore possible themes like Dune, G.I. Joe, and The Goonies (links below for reference). We also chat about Wonderland Amusements and Powlowski Pinball’s involvement in the scene. Then, we shift gears to talk about the ever-evolving world of home pinball—does Wonderland’s new machine make sense at $799? Can it actually deliver a real pinball experience at that price point, or will it follow the same path as Arcade1Up? Speaking of innovation, we also touch on Multimorphic’s P3 platform—a console-like approach to pinball that lets you swap out playfields for a completely new game. On the hardware side, we break down the latest in pinball glass—PinnGlass, JJP Invisiglass, Stern HD Glass, and Voodoo Glass. Plus, we’ve got some inside scoop on Stern’s Venom topper—it’s coming VERY soon and might introduce something completely new for a Stern topper. Will it release before TFP? We think so—probably next week! And of course, we couldn’t wrap up without talking about Dungeons & Dragons Pinball! So far, it’s been an absolute blast with an awesome battle mechanic, but… let’s talk about those reboots and crashes. The good news? George Gomez himself confirmed a fix is coming in next week’s code update. Looking to Buy a New or Used Pinball Machine?

• Episode25: 3 Shocking Pinball Rumors That Might Just Be TRUE

  In this episode, I dive into an intriguing message I received about three pinball rumors and why they might actually be true. Could Barrels of Fun be working on an IP from our childhood that would make it a must-buy game? Jersey Jack seems to be gearing up for a Harry Potter release, but what comes next? Could it be an amazing IP from the Sega Genesis era? Or maybe a music pin that breaks free from the usual rock, metal, and classic rock cycle? Or... could it be something completely unexpected? While I can't say for sure if any of this is true, it definitely piqued my interest—and I trust the source. Listen in and let me know what you think! Looking to Buy a New or Used Pinball Machine?

• Episode 24: I Spent 4 Years Collecting Pinball Machines and Here's What I Learned!

  It all started with one trip to Pinball Expo—just one. I came back home, bought my first machine, and from that moment on, it’s been all pinball, all the time. Machines have come and gone, and through the years, I’ve learned a lot about what I love in a game and what just doesn’t stick. But here’s the problem: I still struggle with deciding what stays and what goes. With limited space and an endless list of games I want to own, it’s a constant battle. In this episode, I take a deep dive into my current collection, the games that didn’t make the cut, and whether I regret letting any of them go. If you’ve ever wrestled with tough pinball choices, this one’s for you! Let’s talk collecting, decision-making, and the never-ending search for the perfect lineup.
