Ten Up
About This Machine
IPDB's listing for a 1975 four-player pinball machine called 'Ten Up' from Zaccaria is now believed to be a case of mistaken identity rather than a real, distinct game. According to pinball historian Federico Croci, no such machine ever existed — the entry appears to have been sourced from an Italian website that likely misidentified Zaccaria's 1974 title 'Strike' as a separate game called Ten Up.
Because there is no confirmed evidence that Ten Up was ever manufactured, no verified details exist about its theme, features, or design. What the historical record does show is how listings like this one illustrate the challenges of documenting pinball history from secondary sources — errors and misattributions can persist for years before being traced back to their origin.
Rather than a real collectible machine, Ten Up stands today as a cautionary tale in pinball research: a title that likely never left the drawing board, if it was ever more than a data-entry mistake in the first place.
