Dutch Pinball is a boutique pinball manufacturer based in the Netherlands, best known for its highly anticipated but troubled release of The Big Lebowski pinball machine. The company gained attention in the early 2010s when it announced plans to develop a high-quality, feature-rich pinball machine based on the cult classic 1998 film. After showcasing a prototype in 2014, excitement grew among pinball enthusiasts, but production delays and financial disputes with their contract manufacturer led to years of setbacks. Despite these challenges, Dutch Pinball managed to resume production in the late 2010s and began fulfilling orders, gradually overcoming its rocky start. The company has since worked to stabilize its operations, and The Big Lebowski remains a sought-after title due to its deep integration of movie clips, custom callouts, and engaging gameplay.
