Used Williams pinball machines

Harry Williams founded the company in Chicago in 1943, and from November 1977 Williams built nothing but solid-state games. That's why every Williams in our catalog has a circuit board where the relays used to be. In 1988 Williams bought Bally/Midway, and from then on the same studio built games under both names. Its WPC system arrived in 1990 and ran the dot-matrix games that most collectors picture when they think of 90s pinball. WMS shut its pinball division on October 25, 1999, after Pinball 2000 missed its sales goals. Today Chicago Gaming Company builds licensed remakes of some of its titles, starting with Medieval Madness in 2015, so check a listing's logos and display before you assume it's a 90s original.
