Star Trek: The Next Generation Details - LaunchBox Games Database

Overview

Star Trek: The Next Generation is a 1993 Pinball machine, designed by Steve Ritchie with artwork by Greg Freres, and released by Williams Electronics. It is the third arcade pinball game based on the Star Trek franchise, and was based on the television series. The pinball casts the player as a newly-arriving Ensign on the USS Enterprise. True to the series, the player and the crew travel the galaxy and have various encounters, such as a time rift, a visit from Q, encounters with the Ferengi, Romulans, and Cardassians, and an attack by the Borg. Other experiences include holodeck simulations, trips to the Neutral Zone, and chances to collect rare artifacts. Truly skilled players will be able to advance in rank, and ultimately reach the Final Frontier. For added appeal, the playfield features two rotating phaser cannons that shoot pinballs at various targets.
