Pinball

No.

Older than any game regularly discussed on this board so.... yes.

>>50500859
It uses mechanism inside and traditional games are meant for cards, dice, tabletop Pinball is a traditional gaming machine, but I think it dont applies

This is actually quite puzzling.
It's not /v/
It's not /tg/
Maybe /toy/?

>>50501213
I don't think it belongs in /toy/
There's way too much work that goes into maintaining them, and then playing them requires skill and knowledge of the table. So it's a game, but not a video game.
I'm confused.

>>50501213
Strikes me as something that might be accepted in /vr/.

>>50501213
They're only /toy/ if we're talking about the miniature plastic versions.

/vr/ seems like a good place to start.

I'll try, but they'll likely just point out that pinball machines are still made today.

>>50501514
If they do, bring up the NES classic mini.

And while you're at it, mock the graphics of their favorite games.

Chess.
Your criterion is invalid.

Metallica is good, but Twilight Zone is the true king of pinball.

I'm perfectly fine having a one-off pinball thread every so often. Its relation to /tg/ is a little strenuous, but considering the rise in board games based around "flicking" and other actions needing manual dexterity I can see how pinball would get a pass.

I'm sure we're even going to see a pinball board game in the future, considering a lot of other mediums have already been adapted. Pic related was a nice little surprise and it's based on old school arcade shoot-em-ups.

There has to be a twist.
