Guns N' Roses is a pinball machine based on the iconic rock band, released in two major versions: a Data East game designed by John Borg in the early 1990s and a modern Jersey Jack Pinball remake released in 2020 by Stern Pinball. The 2020 Stern version became a landmark industry release with professional marketing, Hollywood-style production values, and sustained market demand, though it has generated mixed player opinions regarding plunger feel, playfield flow, and complexity. The game features significant band involvement including Slash's collaboration and signature variants, with music licensing and animation assets being key production differentiators.
