Yesterday, or today I suppose depending upon what part of the World you are in, Stern Pinball filled out its second major code update for its Uncanny X-Men pinball machine. The new code, Version 0.92 is dubbed “Days of Future Past Code Part 2.” It’s great to see Stern rolling out its promised improved code for the game so quickly. Kudos.

Alan-1, the manufacturer of modern arcade games such as Asteroids Revisited, Avian Knights and Soda Slam, has officially announced its next game Atari’s Missile Command Recharged.

The game will be available in two models, Pro and Pro +. Here is a description of it from the official press release:

Missile Command: Recharged Arcade blends nostalgic charm with cutting-edge technology to employ new game design elements into the Missile Command universe. Housed in a beautifully crafted cabinet adorned with vibrant comic book-style art, the game features redesigned software and authentic trackball controllers, echoing the tactile thrill of the 1980 classic. New features elevate the experience, including:

- Two-Player Mode: Team up to defend against relentless missile barrages.

- Wave-based gameplay: Defend your cities across 255 waves, with special Challenges along the way

- Save Your State: Each US state is represented by their own unique background

- Power-Ups: Turn the tide of battle and deepen gameplay

- Physical Effects: Feel the intensity with wind, rumble feedback, and a pinball knocker.
Big Red Button: A lifesaving feature to catch a breather when the chaos peaks

- MLeS Integration: Find a Missile Command: Recharged cabinet near you, track your score & achievements, get notifications when your score is beat, participate in weekly tournaments – all for free by using your mobile device”


The game is available for pre-order on the Conpany’s website for $4,999.

Here’s some good publicity for the hobby, ESPN just announced that it is airing a pinball tournament as part of its niche sports “The Ocho” series. It’s not exactly on Prime Time, airing on August 1st at 1:30 AM on ESPN2 lol, but it’s something :)

A couple of weeks ago I wrote about how Atari’s fantastic studio Digital Eclipse is releasing another one of its trademark arcade history compilations - the Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection later this year.

The team from Digital Eclipse is taking the game on the road this summer. They will be holding exclusive events to show off the game with giveaways of special pins.
