Old-school pinball machines are going extinct at a rapid rate as a result of the innovative, high-tech and highly interactive -- not to mention graphically superior -- pinball games that can be played on gaming consoles.
Now however, it looks like artists Jeremie Cortial and Roman Miletitch have taken things a step further by creating a graphic and virtual pinball machine that allows players to design their own pinball tables and courses. You don't even need any sort of advanced technical know-how to take your pinball dreams and turn them into reality -- you can simply go ahead and draw a pinball route using markers and enjoy playing pinball on a route you designed yourself.
Ultimately, the Flipppaper pinball machine makes an old-school game more high-tech and interactive.
