Editorial The main intention with these history pages are to summarize and cover the pinball history for different computers. You will get a look at how pinballs have changed and been released to todays date. Some history articles simply contain descriptions of some of the different pinballs released for just that computer. If you are interested in trying out some of the pinballs mentioned in the history articles you might want to take a look at the Files page as there is some tips there on emulators for the different computers mentioned here. There is also some pinball demos available for emulators listed there. Please if you feel you are an expert on a certain area of the pinball history, write an shorter or longer article and send it to me at info@pcpinball.com. If you wish to just discuss some part of the pinball simulation history with me that I then might add to the history pages, just mail me! Hopefully you will get a little knowing about the evolution of pinball simulations when reading these articles. Enjoy!
