## Transcript

After revealing the theme of its first pinball machine as "Ninja Eclipse" earlier this week, yesterday Turner Pinball shared a quick gameplay video of its prototype pinball machine and pictures of them setting it up in their booth at this weekend's Texas Pinball Festival. I have embedded the video and pictures below.

If you look really closely at the banner that Turner put up in its TPF booth, it says:

"Be the first to know when it's available"

So it certainly sounds as though Turner Pinball has every intention of bringing Ninja Eclipse to market at some point.
