I am something of a purist, and while there are some video games that I like,  I
much prefer good old fashioned pinball.  I'd like to see if we can get a
discussion of old-time favorite pinball machines up.

Let me start...
There was one, I believe it was called Fireball.  It appeared years before
the modern multi-ball machines, yet it had multi-ball capabilities.  The other
remarkable feature about it was a big rubber spinner in the middle of the
table that (when turned on) would put incredible spins on the ball.  It
included targets and pins representing Odin and another mythological god
(Roman?  Greek?) whose name escapes me.

Anyone care to add anything???
