Six Balls
About This Machine
Six Balls is a rare and enigmatic pinball machine from WIMI Games, a lesser-known Belgian manufacturer run by Willy Michiels. What sets it apart from its contemporaries is its unique combination of features, offering a glimpse into the early days of pinball's transition from electromechanical to electronic technology in Europe.
The gameplay on Six Balls is characterized by its abundance of trap holes - an astonishing 25 - which would have been a thrilling challenge for players of the time. The presence of six cards, likely serving as targets or obstacles, adds another layer of complexity and strategy to the game. The backglass shares the same design layout and automobile artwork as Michiels' 'Super Continental', with the manufacturer's logo in the upper right corner.
WIMI Games' Six Balls is a fascinating piece of pinball history, offering a chance for enthusiasts to experience a rare and unusual example of early electronic pinball. Unfortunately, little is known about the machine's exact production year or history, but its unique features and design make it an intriguing find for collectors and historians alike.
