Pinball Arcade: Eight Ball Deluxe

About this title

Eight Ball Deluxe (1980) is classic pinball with a great contemporary Western pool hall theme. Designed by George Christian and Margaret Hudson, this table, the second in the Eight Ball trilogy of tables released by Bally, was re-released in 1982 as a Limited Edition and again in 1984. This well sought after game combines a beautiful art package with deceivingly tough gameplay to create a table some consider to be the best solid state of all time. The table talks to the player, instructing them over the din of the pool hall in the background to 'Quit talking and start chalking'. 8,250 units of this table were produced.
