After taking a year off to prepare for the 25th anniversary of the NFV (Dutch Pinball Association) this was always going to be an extra-special show, and the setting of the Evoluon in the city of Eindhoven looked like the perfect venue for the DPO (Dutch Pinball Open) Expo. ![]() Entry to the show cost €15 per day ($17.50/£13.36) with entry to the main Dutch Pinball Open tournament another €20. ![]() Ground Floor The ground floor was where almost all the vendors could be found, whether they were selling machines, parts, mods, publications, posters, clothing, or videos. At the entry desk, the NFV had posters, branded clothing, books, magazines, plastics, mugs and all their usual range of merchandise. There was also free coat storage here and a large cafeteria nearby. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Aerosmith Aerosmith Avatar Avengers, The Banzai Run Batman 66 Big Lebowski, The Big Lebowski, The Black Rose Bride of Pinbot, The Machine* Creature from the Black Lagoon Dialed In!

Additional machines may have arrived later while others may have been removed, but 468 was the number we counted when the greatest number of visitors were in the Evoluon. Seminars Along with the machines, tournaments and vendors there was also a full schedule of seminars run by Jonathan Joosten, starting at midday on Saturday with Nicolas from PinSound talking about the various replacement soundtracks available for games using the PinSound board. ![]() ![]() At 1pm Wil Angenent spoke about his latest custom game creation, Star Wars: Death Star One, which he built from an original Star Wars game by Data East, but modified the playfield to add extra shots, new ways to start the features and added an LCD display. ![]() Following Wil was Kevin O’Connor who recounted his early years in the pinball business creating art for many famous Bally games. ![]() At 3:30pm there was a special presentation marking the 25th anniversary of the Dutch Pinball Association (NFV). Former heads of the association joined current board members to talk about how the NFV was founded, the notable events in its history and to unveil the new NFV logo. ![]() ![]() ![]() At 5pm it was time for Barry Oursler to talk about his time designing games such as Gorgar, Pinbot, Comet, Cyclone, Doctor Who, Dirty Harry and many more while working at Williams. ![]() Following Barry, Pinball News Editor Martin Ayub and Pinball Magazine Editor Jonathan Joosten held their popular So You Think You Know Pinball? quiz where the audience go to win great prizes from Jersey Jack Pinball, Stern Pinball, Dutch Pinball, Pinball Magazine, Pinball News and many others in return for answering pinball questions correctly. Kevin O’Connor continued his seminar on Sunday at noon, looking at his artwork on more recent titles for Data East, Sega and Stern Pinball. Then at 1pm, Dennis van de Pas spoke about the creation of his most recent custom game, Kill Bill, based on the Quentin Tarantino movie. ![]() 2pm was the time for Dutch Pinball’s Jaap Nauta and Barry Driessen to update the audience on their progress towards resumption of production of their company’s The Big Lebowski game. ![]() Jean-Paul de Win was the next speaker. He talked about his work on Jersey Jack Pinball’s Dialed In! game, creating the Quantum City model and all the in-game display animations. ![]() With so many machines, stands and seminars spread out around the building, seeing the whole show takes some time. So, here’s our exclusive Thirty-One Minute Tour video showing you all around DPO Expo 2017. Tournaments The name of the event was the DPO Expo, so the main Dutch Pinball Open tournament was a major part of the weekend. 244 players took part in the DPO, with play split between a set of qualifying rounds on Saturday and the play-offs on Sunday. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The top 48 players qualified for Sunday’s play-offs, with the top 16 getting a bye through the first round. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() They were (in alphabetical order): Albert Nomden, Benjamin Gräbeldinger, Cayle George, Craig Pullen, David Mainwaring, Evert Brochez, Greg Mott,John van der Wulp, Kirsten Adam,Mark van der Gugten, Michel Rorive, Peter Andersen, Ralph Beckers, Rich Mallett, Roy Wils & Stefan Herold. The Classics Tournament play-offs were a simple best-of-three single-elimination format played as eight pairs in the first round, four pairs in the quarter finals, two pairs in the semis and then the final pairing of Ralph Beckers and Roy Wils. ![]() The second game was Nitro Groundshaker. ![]() ![]() ![]() 2 3 4 6 6 6 6 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 17 18 19 20 21 22 24 24 24 26 27 28 29 31 31 31 33 34 34 36 37 38 40 40 40 42 43 43 45 46 47 48 48 50 50 52 53 53 55 56 57 57 59 61 61 61 64 64 64 67 67 67 69 69 71 71 73 74 75 76 76 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 92 92 92 94 95 96 96 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 105 107 107 109 109 111 111 113 115 115 115 117 119 119 119 121 122 123 123 125 126 126 128 129 130 131 132 133 134 136 136 136 138 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 148 148 148 148 151 Roy Wils Ralph Beckers Albert Nomden Stefan Herold Cayle George Craig Pullen Benjamin Gräbeldinger Kirsten Adam Greg Mott Evert Brochez Rich Mallett Peter Andersen John van der Wulp Michel Rorive David Mainwaring Mark van der Gugten Nils De Kleine Erwin Deutschländer Lutz Hammer Stefan Hänsch Bas van Doorn Albert Medaillon Dirk Elzholz Tom Fletcher UK Jochen Ludwig Bart Volman Raphael Duez Thomas Doepelheuer Jürgen Schmitz Dina Fukson John Gimera Taco Wouters Philipp Unger Eric Houtteman Peter Blakemore Torsten Jacob Martin Ayub Lieven Engelbeen Mario Kertels Norman Heikamp Kjell Erik Husom Willem van der Meij David Deturck Kevin Roelants Eko Elens Fabian Kretschmer Bert Penning Ralf De Kleine Bernd Gottwald Paul Englert Thomas van Clapdorp Patrick Gelbarth Stefan Judmann Edwin Rooijens Alex Reihle Julie Gray Mike Parkins Rob Sagasser Roman Kunovic Søren Worre Glenn Verhoosele Joël Wozniak Christian Hammer Ivan Geentjens Norbert Broman Steven Demets Erol saydam Anthony Rorive Coen Dunnink Theo de Reuver Gerard Vos Torsten Eid Jeroen Wieringa Jim Lindsay UK Barry Hoeben Vincent Chardome Jeroen Boiten Fred van den Bosch Frank van Vleuten Stefan Schichtl Marc Steinmeier Nick Baxter-Sibley Dominique De Cock Lefman kan Frank Menzler Helen de Haan-Verbeek Bob Thissen Ronald Klappe Jeremy Dorling Jasmijn de Jong Louis Hänsch Rob Fransen Arjan Neet Steven de Maer Marcel van der Zouwen Simone Fontana Didier Dujardin Mark Heneka Carl Bierkens Francois De Wrangel Florian Thomas Ralf Wasser Evelyne Desot Claudia Chelius Sebastian Zehe Ben Zaad Sascha Maria Lyck Heinz Berges Joeri Stroobants Jörn Runge Dennis Verleyen Pascal Claessens Tom Geneyn David Carlier Babs Negelen Patrick Struwer Kevin Sultana Mirko Carton Denis Cuypers Tiny de Bie Willy Sachet Marijke Kool Dirk Engler Jonas Doepelheuer Esther Carton Don Kraper Nicky de Milde Marnix Goethals Gerard Paapen Bjorn Brand Hans Harte Tina Reil Stephan Luhn Steven Smith Rob Elens Kelly Lembrechts Robin Koning Peter Roos Stefan Nussbaum Joris van Neijenhof Mary van der Putten Richard Garbutt Roel Franck Daniela Oymann Joris de Wilde Nadine Felgentreu Noralie Carton Mathias Leurs Amie Carton Sam van Vleuten Martin Blok The main DPO reach its final after the Classics Tournament had concluded. Roy Wils was playing in both so they needed to be held consecutively. Roy was joined by Peter Andersen and Taco Wouters to play the best-of-three final. Each chose a machine to play and took the player one position on their choice. Roy chose Rollercoaster Tycoon, Peter chose Aerosmith and Taco chose Whitewater. Points would be awarded for position in each game using a 5-2-0 system. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Roy wasn’t able to get a grip on the game on his third ball either, ending his game on 1,352,900 for third place. Taco likewise had a bad third ball and only raised his score to 5,505,780. Only Peter could prevent Taco winning game one, and to do that he really needed to start multiball. ![]() ![]() All three did rather better on their second balls thanks to starting multiball. Taco raised his score to 55, 701,120 and Roy to 41,721,100, but again it was Peter who did best of all which his 189,078,870 second ball total. The pressure was on Taco and Roy to stop Peter taking another 5 points and wrapping up the win. Taco couldn’t beat Peter’s score, ending his game on 74,961,230. Peter used his third ball to extend his lead further and ended with 257,089,420. Only Roy could stop him, and he did thanks to some great multiball jackpots. ![]() For Taco only a win would do to keep his championship hopes alive, and then it would require Roy to be second and Peter third to get a three-way play-off. If either Peter or Roy won the third game then they would win overall. It was Peter’s choice of Aerosmith and the curse of player one continued. ![]() All three did better on their second balls but Peter was still third with his 3, 098,000. Roy overtook Taco by 6,773,180 to 4,045,010, but going into the third ball it was still anybody’s game. Peter did much better on his third ball thanks to a nice multiball. He ended his game with 19,252,370. Roy looked set to catch him when… ![]() As it transpired, Taco only had a quick ball and ended with 5,291,390 points, putting him in third place in the game and third overall. With the DPO running behind schedule, presentation of the trophies and cash prizes followed immediately the result was known. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 2 3 4 5 5 7 7 10 10 10 10 14 14 14 14 20 20

2017 to a close. This was certainly a landmark event and almost certainly the largest European pinball show to date in terms of number of machines and the floor space available. The venue was as impressive as the organisation, and given how much work must have gone into setting everything up it was a shame the event was only two days long; we could have spent a week there and still not played every machine. Eindhoven was a great host city too – lots of nearby hotels, good train and air connections, and plenty of late-night entertainment for a post-Expo wind-down. The show coincided with the Glow festival of light and colour which added an extra element to the weekend’s fun. ![]() ![]() More... |
