A few minutes ago, Jersey Jack Pinball shared another teaser of its next pinball machine, which it strongly implied a few days ago is The Godfather. In the picture, the game's designer Eric Meunier is leaning over the underside of what one can assume is the next game with the caption... "4,501 parts..." Let the micro-analysis of the underside of the game to guess what's in it commence LOL. UPDATED An hour or so after the first picture of the game, JJP shared a second one with a number of playfields in the process of being built.
