Then why 3D Pinball disappeared？
Because Raymond, the Engineer in charge of transplanting the game at that time, found that the 3D Pinball failed to collide in the 64 bit system. That is to say, when the game starts, the ball will fall and fly directly out of the game frame. Due to the creator’s habit to encrypt the game at that time, Raymond couldn’t figure it out without source code. In the case of lack of time, the game had to stop updating in the end.
New games are emerging in an endless stream under the new technology and pinball has become an classic old school collection. But the true classics will not be forgotten. Up to now, there are still some manufacturers producing pinball machines and stern Pinball and Hy Chinese mini pinball are two of them.
