Steve P.

Operated my first pin in 2015 in a corporate office. Founded Rotten Apple Amusements in 2019.

While working as a manager of a small technical support team, I had the idea that a pinball machine at the office would provide a well-deserved break from the support ticket queue.

And, that's how it began. Now if I had to choose between playing pinball and pinball repair work, I'd choose the latter. Thankfully I don't have to choose.

Founded Glenn’s Games in 2022, but not new to the pinball world by any means—I have been playing pinball for over 30 years.

While building a collection since the early 2000s, I started to dabble with the idea of putting a game or two in a location on the Upper West Side in 2018. If you are unaware, the Upper West Side was a desert for pinball, and I really wanted to change that. Eventually though, I decided to not move forward with my pursuit. Fast forward through a pandemic, the interest came back and I was more determined than ever to start putting games on location.

Why We Do What We Do

Pinball is fun!! Plain and simple.

We want to bring that joy to people who weren’t fortunate enough to have been exposed to it. It is also our goal to not just put games on location, but to educate people who have never played it before, so as not to be intimidated by it. With our long history and experience, we strive very hard to make old games feel like new again, while also supporting new games as well. We have an extensive knowledge of pinball and am also backed by some of the best local talent in the industry.
