    Every catalog has its miscellany, and this is pinball's. These are machines that source databases explicitly flag as *not* pinball, yet that resist a tidier label - countertop dispensers and bar-top novelties, puck-and-pool hybrids, coin-operated wall games, horse-race consoles and assorted skill amusements that drifted into the pinball record over the decades. The best-known resident is [[manufacturer:williams]]'s *[[title:hyperball]]* (1981), a flipperless oddity that fired ball after ball at a wall of targets at machine-gun pace - unmistakably a coin-op amusement, unmistakably not pinball. Like the rest of this list, it earns its place by being adjacent to pinball without ever quite being it: same makers, same arcades, same era, different game entirely.
