SuperPin


SuperPin is the name given to any of the widebody pinball games released by Williams and Midway between 1993 and late-1994.
The playfield is approximately one shooter lane width wider than a standard body machine. They fit in the same size box for distribution, and can fit in the same floor space but are heavier than a typical machine. Earlier widebodies had a reputation for playing "floaty", in that the ball generally moved more slowly than standard machines, and the most recent Bally/Williams widebody release had been Embryon in 1981. After the success of The Addams Family in 1992, Pat Lawlor was given full creative control for The Twilight Zone and pushed for it to be a widebody due to the stronger flippers that had become available in recent years.
These games often included extra gimmicks and toys which added to the gameplay. All of the SuperPins used the DCS Sound System, except for Twilight Zone.
