My suggestions/requests:
I would love it so much if you could remake the pinball tables that were used as mini-games in Sonic Adventure of Nights and Sonic. Theres so much potential to make excellent pinball games based on those. Go to Sega of Europe and work on a deal

Love the Sonic and Sharknado ideas!! I know it might be tough to get licenses to big names but I love the idea of some video game themed tables.

How about some kind of rock band / music themed table?

Avatar the Last Airbender would be pretty epic, just sayin'.

Hmmm.....I wonder what Zen could do with a Green Hill Zone table. I'm sure Sega and Zen could work something out.

The chime when Sonic collects those rings, as well as chimes when he loses them would sound really good on a pinball table. Plus the Green Hill Zone playing in the background.......Talk about bringing back memories of playing the Genesis when I was a kid.

Fun idea for a thread. I remember playing a Monopoly pinball game and it was great. Id like to see a pack of older board game tables, Monopoly, Game of Life..... Not sure if anyone else would like this but sounds fun to me!

Speaking of board games how about a old vhs game called NIGHTMARE as a table. heres a image to give you a memory boost.

Thank you Rafie. They could probably go even further as far as updating console specific themes by using Killzone Shadow Fall to rebuild NGS for the PS 4 and use Sunset Overdrive to rebuild MS. Splosion Man for the XBOX One.

You hadd also mentioned a couple of posts before that Barbie had said that she would love for Zen to do a SMB table, but Nintendo has a tight leash on their franchises. It's a darn shame since they have absolutely no problem using the Mario characters, along with Sonic, in mediocre Olympic games every 2 years. Why not license him out for an excellent pinball game as well

Yeah I hear ya. Nintendo is cautious with their characters because they don't want another entity to misrepresent them in a fashion that's not favorable to Nintendo. If there ever will be a Mario table from Zen, trust me that Nintendo will be 100% involved.

Also to note about the Mario and Sonic Olympic games is that Sega and Nintendo have contractual agreements. The rivals once and now teamed up companies are doing great wonders. Hmmm.....I wonder what Zen could do with a Green Hill Zone table. I'm sure Sega and Zen could work something out.

You got some pretty cool ideas, Fly. Don't stop asking for Mario Bros and the rest. ANYTHING can happen! You never know.

- A Marvel "What The?" table that features twisted versions of previous Marvel tables
- As a previous user mentioned a Marvel 4-pack of character story-based tables
- Monty Python and the Holy Grail

I can understand why Zen wants their tables to be available to everyone now. I had suggested this before in another thread but I was wondering if Zen would be able to take the console exclusive tables Ms. Splosion Man and Ninja Gaiden Sigma and give them a new paint job in order to make them available to the other consoles as well. Remake Ms Splosion Man as Ratchet and Clank for the Playstation; and Ninja Gaiden Sigma as either Gears of War or Halo for the XBOX. On the Wii U, Super Mario Bros. for Ms Splosion Man, and The Legend of Zelda for NGS. That would allow all these tables to be available for all the consoles, just with console-exclusive themes for each.

That's a pretty unique concept you approached that with. LOL Well here's the thing, Zen never recreates tables. They build from the ground up. Zen would still have to switch the artwork around on the tables and get sound affects, voice acting, licenses and etc which would be pretty hefty. Still though, you might be seeing Ninja Gaiden soon. According to Zen on FB, NG may be coming to the Xbox. So there's that. I love Ms. Splosion Man. I love the mechanics, the music, and everything.

I was really hoping Zen would have done a Super Mario Bros table. Miiverse constantly asks for it. That and Zelda are the 2 most requested Nintendo tables. However, I remember Barbie saying that she would love for Zen to do it, but Nintendo has a tight leash on their franchises and the very fact that it would have to be exclusive to Nintendo. Zen wants their tables to be available to everyone now. So I don't think it's going to happen...the SMB table. I hope something else similar or on the level with that can happen though.

YO BW that is a PHENOMENAL idea for a table. I haven't heard anyone request that theme yet. Man you be coming up with some cool ideas for tables. I'm still hoping for a table with Archangel soon for ya. If you see him...then you'll definitely see Apocalypse.

Thanks man! I'm always on the lookout for great pinball themes. You know I had your back when you were pushing for Deadpool and we got that one.

Not sure if you noticed but they did include Archangel on the side wall art of that table, for which I was very grateful. Would still love a dedicated table though.

[Rafie]

SHARKNADO!!! This theme could be amazing!!! Just imagine the possibilities! Please Zen, humor me with this one. I actually think it would be a great pinball theme.

Yea, I figured it would be tough and Zen should definitely want their tables available to everyone.
