A little history on Capcom

Capcom Coin-Op, a division of the renowned video game company Capcom, entered the pinball market in the early 1990s. Founded in 1993, Capcom Coin-Op sought to bring its expertise in video games to the world of pinball. Their first machine, Pinball Magic, was released in 1995 and was well-received for its innovative use of a levitating ball feature and intricate playfield design. In 1996, Capcom released Big Bang Bar, a machine that quickly became legendary among collectors for its distinctive artwork, humorous theme, and unique gameplay elements, including a dancing alien toy. Despite producing several innovative and well-regarded machines, Capcom Coin-Op faced challenges in the competitive pinball market and ceased production in 1996. Although their tenure in the pinball industry was short-lived, Capcom Coin-Op left a lasting impact with their creative designs and integration of video game-like features into pinball.
