Pinball had its heyday in the Seventies. You can thank The Who for a lot of that, considering their 1969 rock opera and 1975 film Tommy had teenagers singing, "Sure plays a mean pinball!"
Meanwhile, game shows were having a major resurgence. There were dozens of game shows in daytime, primetime and syndication.
Looking back, the titles of these pinball machines and game shows start to sound alike. At least, we thought so. See if you can tell them apart!

Didn't do too well since I wasn't born 'til '87, but that was a good concept. I do love both pinball and game shows. In fact, my calendar this year is vintage pinball machines, so I recognized all the names from it. xD
