Earthshaker Pinball Machine for Sale

This disaster themed pinball machine was built in 1988 by popular pinball machine maker Williams. This pinball machine was designed by  Pat Lawlor who designed many Bally and Williams pinballs.   This was only his 2nd pinball machine.  He made many great games like Bonzai Run, Whirlwind, Addams Family, Funhouse and many more.  He is one of the most creative pinball designers ever.

This is the first pinball machine to ever have a shaker motor.   The shaker motor is to simulate an earthquake.  It has many great features.  California and Nevada split to divert the ball when you lock the ball for multiball.  As with many of Pat Lawlor games you can only get the jackpot with the upper flipper.  If you don’t get the jackpot during multiball, you can get an aftershock and restart the multiball.
