Batman Forever is a widebody pinball machine manufactured by Sega in July 1995, designed by Joe Kaminkow and Paul Leslie. Based on Tim Burton's 1995 film of the same name, it features Jim Carrey callouts and the song 'Kiss from a Rose' by Seal. The game is notable as the third Sega American pinball release and the last to use screen-printed playfield artwork, incorporating green powder-coated ramps, side ramp shots, and a Batwing shooter. It has become a sought-after collector's piece, ranked #2 among Sega's greatest machines.
