I used to play extreme pinball from epic megagames. the monkey madness table was really fun. Thats the extent of my retail pc pin info. I would recommend visual pinball though. http://www.randydavis.com/vp/ think of mame but done with pins. Community efforts always seem to be much better than retail efforts when it comes to preservation.

Balls of Steel is fun, but I can't get it to run on Win XP. If you've got a Win 98 box around check it out.
