Williams Earthshaker (1989) - SOLD!
This fun 4-player pinball comes from my personal collection, now up for sale here for the first time. Made in 1989, Williams Earthshaker simulates a California earthquake. At certain times during gameplay, a motor kicks on and shakes the entire machine! The first-ever game to have that feature!
It's a moving experience! Target the zones where the Earthquake Institute predicts an earthquake. A diverter opens a simulated faultline on the playfield, and California splits apart from Nevada! With multi-ball gameplay, you can earn massive Ramp Miles on your way to unlocking the earthquake shelter skill shot!
The Internet Pinball Database currently mentions this game as #57 in their user-ranked list of the top solid-state pinball machines of all time, with an overall rating of 7.9 out of 10. This particular machine was pulled from service in 1999 and has been in my personal collection since then. It has been completely reconditioned, and is set on free play for home use. (see checklist below)
This machine has been thoroughly tested and played to make sure that everything is working and that the action is good. Pinball games often need adjustment and tuning after they are moved, however. As such, I cannot guarantee this machine after it leaves my shop. Click here for shipping information.
