New Pinball Map Pinball Locations: April 2023

Hi, I’m Ryan. I help maintain a website and app called Pinball Map. For the past 15 years we’ve been offering a user-updated map of venues with pinball. Right now, the site is listing over 8,000 locations and over 35,000 pinball machines.

Every week, we add somewhere between 40 - 90 (give or take) new locations - all submitted to us by people like you! Thank you.

But with all these new locations, how can one (i.e. you) keep up? Well, we made a pinball location randomizer twitterbot, but what if you (i.e. one) want something that’s less random and practically useless? We thought we’d take to Kineticist, the news-breaking and thought-leading pinball website, to highlight some of the notable new spots! These venues might not necessarily be newly-opened businesses, but they are new to us - and may be new to you, depending on who you are and what you know. We’re hoping to make this a regular monthly segment on Kineticist. We have a lot of good news to share!

What makes a place notable? SImple: they have from a decent amount to a lot of pinball machines. Today’s list spans a variety of business types, from movie theaters to antique shops to restaurants to bars and to/from arcades. The focus here is on the NorAm market. I haven’t actually been to any of these places! And please don’t get mad when I seemingly belittle a village by highlighting that it’s a lil’ burg outside of a known metropolis.
