We first saw the Digital Pinball machine at PAX AUS a couple of months back. Since then the team at – the newly formed – Infinity Amusements has been hard at work attempting to get to market.
A number of variations of Digital Pinball Cabinets are in the works with the team dubbing them as Infinity Pinball Entertainment Systems. Surely they will become known as iPES.
The team has announced a crowd funding campaign to help:
Instead of playing on your mobile, tablet or game console you will now be able to experience Digital Pinball the way it's meant to be played... In an authentic pinball cabinet.
In less than 24 hours from now we will launch our crowd funding campaign on IndieGoGo. Our goal is to raise just $7,000. This will allow us to manufacture the two prototypes required as well as build an initial line up for those early backers.
We will be offering a limited amount of specials during this campaign such as $500 down and get $500 off the final product. There are many more perks starting from as little as $2. So even if you are simply interested in supporting us that would be very much appreciated.
“I honestly had no idea that when I started this initial project that there would be so much support and interest from the general community.” Said Mark Libman, company head “This is a very exciting time for those interested in Pinball that have fond memories from their youth. More importantly a new generation is about to enjoy this in ways that were never thought possible.”
