Kineticist is a pinball publication and database. Connect it and ChatGPT can answer pinball questions from Kineticist instead of guessing: - This week's pinball news, new videos and podcasts from the creators Kineticist follows, and what's climbing the Hype Index of pinball themes. - Any pinball machine: editions (Pro, Premium, LE) with prices and production runs, whether it's still made, remakes and remasters, manuals and schematics. - Who designed a game: designers, artists, programmers and the rest of the team. - Where to play: venues near a postal code or city, or venues that have a particular machine. - Manufacturers, people, mods and anything else on kineticist.com, with links back to the pages. Answers link to kineticist.com so you can read more. It reads public Kineticist data only and needs no account. Limits: machine lists at venues come from Pinball Map and can lag; a game announced in the last few days may not have its editions in the database yet.
