Lock is Lit Podcast Episode 121-The Life and Death of Pinball 2000

04/09/19 • 15 min

Welcome to a special episode of the podcast, a mini documentary on Pinball 2000, a list ditch effort to save Williams pinball.

If this episode interested you at all, I implore you to watch TILT:The Battle to Save Pinball. This goes much deeper into the development of Pinball 2000, and the last days of the Williams pinball division. It also has some fascinating interviews with the people involved, including George Gomez, Pat Lawlor, Lyman Sheats, Roger Sharpe, and many others. It is available on Amazon Prime Video as well, and you can go directly to it here.
