About This Machine

The 1984 Super Bowl pinball machine by Bell Games of Bologna, Italy is a conversion kit built on Bally Midway's 1984 'X's & O's,' combining American football and tic-tac-toe theming for a distinctive gameplay experience. The machine uses a Bally MPU AS-2518-35 for solid-state electronics.

Notable features include three flippers, three pop bumpers, and a 3-bank drop target, along with a tic-tac-toe game played on the center playfield that adds a layer of strategy to the main football-themed gameplay.

Little is documented about the designer or specific development details behind this conversion. As a machine combining two disparate themes, Super Bowl offers an intriguing glimpse into the conversion-kit market of 1980s European pinball.
