Machines in Tournament

Beginning in 2001, most of the pinball machines for Pinburgh have been selected from the private collection of one of our sponsors. The pinball industry has been very slow in recent years (only Stern is still producing new machines), and there are fewer machines on route than ever before. On the bright side, the private collection gives us more than seventy tournament-quality machines to choose from!

There will be at least forty pinball machines present for the tournament, including machines available for practice play. Most machines are of recent vintage, and all have been selected on the basis of suitability to tournament play. In order to avoid the possibility of any unfair advantage, the following list is merely indicative of the machines that will be present. It is not guaranteed that every machine listed here will be present, nor that any number of unlisted machines may appear in any portion of the tournament.

During the final rounds of the tournament, each division plays on a set of machines different from those used during qualifying. The selection of machines for each division's final rounds will not be announced until the final rounds begin on Sunday. Similarly, the exact selection of machines for each division's qualifying rounds will not be available until the tournament opens on Friday.

Machines used in tournament play are not available for practice play at any time. Machines configured for practice play will be available in a separate area; the coin drop from fifty-cent play will go towards meeting tournament expenses.
