Bingo Pinballs

Created on 10-13-2021

Looking back, the engineering team at Bally seemed to be well thought-out and organized`

Operating off a road map to provide new games, with increased offerings to attract and involve the players`

For the second iteration of their “Magic Theme” machines`…Bally spun-up Magic Squares and

incorporated it in ten games, running from 1955’-to-1958’ with a last-hoorah in 1978’

Big Show, Beach Beauty. Broadway, Cypress Gardens, Double Header, Key West

Night Club, Parade, Show Time, Sun Valley and finally Bonanza

Often referred to as “Turning Corners” by the players`…these games kind of Rock`

Pretty huge control over the numbers and if you toss is Corners Scoring like on Big Show

and Bonanza, which built upon it offering two payout levels, Magic Squares in huge`

Each of the games is different, subtle variations yes, but still somewhat unique`

Now as to the mechanicals, these machines add to the mystic and wonder

on just how complex the Bingos really are`

Don talks about how “a few other engineers” helped design the games and here we see Bernie’s stamp`

…the “Selectively Changeable Score Indicating” feature, smile`

Turning Corners on a Bingo`…what’s not to Love`
