- Flippers (4), Pop bumpers (3), 5-bank drop targets (1), 3-bank drop targets (2), Spinning targets (2). No shooter lane or outlanes. Has speech. Soccer ball attached to backbox.
This appears to be the first pinball machine with its dot matrix display (DMD) located under the playfield glass. The 256x64 High Resolution DMD used in this game is larger than on other games.
Balls shot under the DMD hit rapidly reset drop targets that are used to animate a virtual ball that continues into the DMD display animations.
Speech includes an "adult" mode containing profanity and bodily noises.
This game is timed, with each player getting the same amount of time, no matter how many drains. 6 players can play as two teams.
- ipdb.notes
- The manufacturer advertised that this game "sports a smaller, lighter backbox for easy disassembly and transportation."
Designer Mark Ritchie was working on Kingpin before Flipper Football was even started, but Flipper Football was rushed to production ahead of Kingpin.
When a whitewood was approved for release to production, a sequentially-assigned project number was assigned to the game and engineering drawings were started. The Project Number for this game was "PB-11". This number appears on the playfield under the cardholder.
