Accessible pinball

Skill Shot has imported patented accessible pinball flipper technology from Game Preserve Houston. After suffering two strokes which greatly limited his physical abilities, pinball repair tech Jim Austin developed Adaptive Flipper Controls (AFC) which allow him to continue his work, and give players with physical challenges new ways to play pinball.

AFC bypasses the cabinet flipper buttons and puts those buttons directly in the hands of the player in a small control box, easily used by someone sitting in a wheelchair or scooter. We also have a version of this controller which has oversize buttons as an alternative for those with fine motor control difficulties.
Watch a clip of someone using the controller to play pinball with one hand!

In addition to AFC, our fully accessible space also provides the option of a medical-grade chair with power seat lift, to help an unsteady player get safely into optimal playing position.

If you thought your pinball playing days were over, please come in and see if our gear can prove you wrong!

Your Host

I'm a website developer and pinball enthusiast who only recently got back into playing.
In my teens I used to practically live at places in Toronto like Velvet Green Billiards and the giant arcade next to Sam The Record Man at Yonge/Dundas.

Fast forward 40 years, we moved to Tillsonburg in 2023 and finally I had the opportunity to get back into pinball. But there was nowhere in town to play!

So I decided to open Skill Shot and I hope you'll drop by soon and enjoy a few games, and maybe grow to enjoy it as much as me. Maybe you'll even get good enough to knock my high scores off the machines! Cool
