Jersey Jack Pinball has released a trailer giving a full reveal of the Sonic the Hedgehog machine it teased last week.
The cabinet features custom sculptures of Sonic, Amy, and Dr. Eggman, advanced RGB-LED lighting, built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and a 27-inch LCD screen featuring art and animation from Sonic Generations.
It also offers nine fan-favorite songs like Sonic Adventure 2’s “Live & Learn,” exclusive guitar solos from Guns N’ Roses musician Slash, and over 5,000 voice callouts from Sega’s official voice cast, including Roger Craig Smith as Sonic.
Players must race through seven Zones – based on iconic Sonic levels such as Green Hill Zone, Chemical Plant, and City Escape – with each building to a climactic boss battle.
The cabinet is available to order now from the Jersey Jack website in three different editions:
- Arcade Edition – $9,999
- Special Edition – $12,000
- Collector’s Edition – $15,000
A $1,000 deposit is required for each machine when ordering directly from Jersey Jack. Alternative distributors can also be found on this webpage.
The Special and Collector’s Editions include unique artwork, special battle toppers, non-reflective Invisiglass, haptic feedback, and more. Further details of the differences between the three models are available in Jersey Jack’s comprehensive comparison chart.

“From the very beginning, we wanted Sonic to feel fast, kinetic, and alive,” Ritchie said.
