EP 26 - Cruising Through the Pinball Bermuda Triangle Jul 03, 2026

Show notes

Welcome back to another episode of the Flip N Out Pinball Podcast!

This week, we find ourselves cruising straight into what may be the Pinball Bermuda Triangle...a place where rumors, speculation, and "inside information" seem to disappear, reappear, and somehow change every time someone tells the story.

With Dungeon Crawler Carl rumors heating up, we discuss how difficult it has become to separate fact from fiction and why patience is sometimes the hardest part of being a pinball enthusiast.

We also share our thoughts on Stern Pinball's Transformers Pro, discuss why game code can make or break a machine over time, revisit the launch of Jersey Jack Pinball's Sonic the Hedgehog, and talk about one of the more unique ideas we've seen in the hobby...a pinball cruise! *Dungeon Crawler Carl teaser artwork appears in this thumbnail for commentary purposes. Original artwork was publicly shared on Facebook by Matt Dinniman.
