SkillShot
About This Machine
SkillShot, manufactured by HanaHo Games, Inc. of Cerritos, California, in 1998, is an unusual entry in the IPDB: it is not a true pinball machine but a billiards-themed skill game, an updated take on Bally's 1958 electromechanical 'Skill-Roll.' It is listed here for informational purposes rather than as a conventional flipper game.
The machine's theme revolves around billiards, with six ball shooters allowing a single player to strategize their shots and aim for high scores. This emphasis on skill and repeated shot-making sets SkillShot apart from traditional pinball mechanics, even though it borrows pinball's coin-op cabinet format.
No information is available regarding the game's designer or any trivia surrounding its creation. Nonetheless, SkillShot remains an intriguing curiosity for enthusiasts, offering a glimpse into the many coin-op skill games that have been cataloged alongside pinball history.
