Multiple actual and virtual Kiss-themed pinball games have been made over the past few decades, beginning with the Bally-made machine first conceived in January 1978.

In 1978 the first Kiss arcade pinball machine was introduced by Bally, and stayed in circulation well into the 1980s. In 1978, Barry Imhoff declared, "there will be 20,000 Kiss machines." Notable owners of Kiss pinball machines include Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails and Marc DeLeon of The Mentors and Adema, along with Denver Post and Sports Illustrated hockey writer Adrian Dater
