GoldenEye is a 1996 pinball machine released by Sega Pinball. It is based on the 1995 James Bond film of the same name.
Design and layout
The game includes custom speech by Pierce Brosnan.[1]
The major toy in the game is the rotating satellite with a magnet which can be reached by the pop-up ramp. The game includes three relatively easy ramps; earlier Sega game had fewer but more difficult ramps.[2]
