I hope that everyone is having a great weekend. I have a couple of quick updates.
First up, we have a production update from Turner Pinball. The Company is now 75% through the production of its Ninja Eclipse pinball machine.
On February 22nd, the last production update I shared for the company, they were at just over 50% complete with the run. So it took them a little under 2 months to build 25% of the remaining games. At that rate, Ninja Eclipse production should be complete in the first half of June. At which point I assume production would switch over to Turner's second game, Merlin's Arcade.
It was a beautiful day here in Texas and lots more Ninja Eclipse machines went out today. We have passed 75% completion on our run of First Edition Ninja Eclipse machines!
On Thursday night, on Spooky Pinball's weekly Bug's Scream N' Stream YouTube pinball stream, Spooky revealed that it has added the controversial character Scrappy-Doo to the code in its latest update for its Scooby-Doo pinball machine.
CODE UPDATE - Love him or love to hate him… Scrappy-Doo has officially joined the gang! With brand-new callouts, Scrappy brings his "puppy power!" to Spooky Pinball. Scrappy callouts are off by default, but can be turned on in the audio menu.
But that's not all — this update also includes a massive improvement to the ball tracking and recovery system. We've completely refactored how the game handles edge cases, including tricky scenarios where an extra ball might be on the playfield. This means more reliable gameplay, smoother recovery, and fewer interruptions when chaos breaks loose.
So fire it up and see the difference — and maybe give Scrappy a shot (or don’t, it’s your machine). The update is available at spookypinball.com/game-support
Also earlier this week, the Dutch Pinball Museum shared a cool unboxing video for its new Dutch Pinball Exclusive Alice's Adventures in Wonderland machine. The museum is the first location in the World to have the game available for the public to play.
