  • The 'Banana' (or curved) Flippers were standard on many of these games. Some players like these flippers as a change of pace, perhaps feeling that like Jai-Alai racquets they allow the ball to travel at high velocities. Other players feel that the loss of control is unacceptable, for this reason many games owners remove the 'Banana Flippers' replace them with normal flipper bats. According to Barry Oursler, the games' designer, approximately the last 2000 of Time Warp's production came with normal flipper bats.

Disco Fever (System 4) is an earlier game that had Banana Flippers fitted from the factory for the entire run.
