Historical Notes
Fred Young did voice characterizations on this game. Last pinball produced by Data East, first pinball produced with the 192x64 dot matrix display and 16 bit (68000 driven) dot matrix controller. Production of this game was continued under Sega Pinball, Inc. Prototype game featured a widebody playfield and a "normal" 128x32 display. Among other features, the widebody prototype playfield had a hole under the boat (replaced in production with captive ball), a much wider riverboat paddlewheel, and a different main character at the poker table on the playfield. Actor James Garner was depicted at the bottom of the playfield. Orin Day told us that Warner Brothers made them change the art for production so that Garner would be seated at the poker table. Maverick was Morgan Weistling's first venture into pinball art. We previously listed the Manufacture Date as October, 1994. This game was produced starting Sep-25-1994. We do not have the final production date.
