About This Machine

Conan, manufactured by Rowamet Indústria Eletrometalúrgica LTDA of São Paulo, Brazil (which operated from 1980 to 1983), is a 1983 solid-state electronic (SS) pinball machine with a fantasy theme. It is possibly a conversion of Bally's 1980 'Rolling Stones,' reflecting a practice of adapting existing playfield designs seen among several South American manufacturers of the era.

The gameplay features of Conan are characteristic of its era, with two flippers, three pop bumpers, a kick-out hole, and a set of drop targets that include both a 4-bank and a solitary target. These elements make for a relatively accessible entry point for collectors and enthusiasts exploring early-1980s pinball.

Specific details about Conan's designer or artistic influences are currently unknown. As with many Brazilian-made pinball machines from the era, it remains something of an enigma to enthusiasts outside South America, adding to its appeal for those exploring the lesser-known corners of pinball history.
