The Pinball Hall of Fame is a museum for pinball machines that opened in Paradise, Nevada in January 2006. It is located at 1610 E Tropicana Ave. The museum is a project of the Las Vegas Pinball Collectors Club, and it features pinball machines from all eras, including some very rare machines such as Williams' ''Black Gold'', Bally's ''Pinball Circus'' and Recreativos Franco's ''Impacto''. It features approximately 400 different pinball games, including some classic video arcade games and other novelty machines of the past and present. The Pinball Hall of Fame is a nonprofit venture and its creation came about in part due to donations, which are still accepted. The museum is run by Tim Arnold, a veteran arcade operator who ran "Pinball Pete's" in East Lansing, Michigan.〔()〕 Fully staffed by volunteers, excess revenues are donated to the Salvation Army.〔()〕 ==History== Since 1990, Tim Arnold has been busy with this project, raising money selling DVDs (and VHS tapes) about pinball repair and organizing pinball 'fun nights' at his own house.
