There's a reason serious game room builders keep coming back to the same name. Stern Pinball has been crafting machines that define the arcade experience for decades, and their lineup doesn't just hold up: it commands the room. If you've been on the fence about adding a pinball machine to your space, this is your sign. And if you've already decided, the only question left is which one.
Here's a look at every Stern machine we carry at Game Room Collective, and the kind of player each one is built for.
Stranger Things Pinball — $6,999
Step into Hawkins, Indiana without leaving your game room. The Stranger Things machine is one of those rare builds where the theme and the gameplay feel completely inseparable. The sound design, the LED light shows, and the multiball sequences pull you deeper into the Upside Down with every flip. Whether your guests are pinball veterans or Stranger Things obsessives, this one hooks everyone immediately.
Best for: The host who wants a machine that stops conversations cold and starts them right back up again.
The Walking Dead Remastered — Premium Edition — $9,699
The Premium Edition of one of Stern's most celebrated machines, now remastered. This is a collector's piece as much as it is a gameplay powerhouse: built for the player who wants the full experience with zero compromises. Intense, immersive, and built to last. If you're going to invest in a centerpiece, this is the one that earns every penny.
Best for: The serious collector or the game room builder who only wants the best.
John Wick Pinball — $6,999
Fast, relentless, and impossibly cool. The John Wick machine plays exactly like the films feel. High-octane gameplay, sharp visuals, and the kind of energy that makes every session feel like a mission. It's one of the most talked-about machines in Stern's recent lineup and it's easy to see why the moment you step up to it.
Best for: The action fan who wants a machine with attitude to match their game room.
Dungeons & Dragons: The Tyrant's Eye — $6,999
This one is for the game room that goes all in on atmosphere. Dungeons & Dragons: The Tyrant's Eye is a deep, immersive machine that rewards skilled players while pulling in everyone around it with its world-building and visual design. If your crew is into tabletop gaming, fantasy, or just machines that feel like a full experience rather than a quick game, this is an easy conversation starter.
Best for: The host whose guests love a game with layers, and a great story.
Deadpool Pinball — Premium Edition — $9,699
Loud, irreverent, and absolutely impossible to play without grinning. The Deadpool Premium Edition is one of Stern's most beloved machines for a reason: it doesn't take itself seriously for a single second, and neither will you. Packed with humor, surprises, and gameplay that keeps pulling you back for one more ball, this is the machine that defines game night energy.
Best for: The host who wants the room laughing as much as competing.
Venom Pinball — $6,999
Dark, fast, and visually stunning. The Venom machine leans hard into the character's aesthetic with aggressive gameplay, immersive theming, and the kind of presence that makes it look as good sitting in your game room as it does in play. Marvel fans will love it immediately, but it earns its place on gameplay alone.
Best for: The collector who wants something that looks as dramatic as it plays.
