Tri Zone: R-CADE Edition
In April 2018, I was part of a team of scholars that presented at the Rutgers-Camden Archive of Digital Ephemera (R-CADE) Symposium. For the presentation, our team acquired, restored, and digitally recreated a 1979 Tri Zone pinball machine. Designer Matt Mundell included this bespoke Generic Soda!!! machine in the background as a nod to my work here at the Video Game Soda Machine Project. Thanks, Matt!
From Dusk Till Dawn
From Dusk Till Dawn, a 2001 video game follow-up to the 1996 film, just goes to prove the old adage: “A garlic soda a day keeps the vampires away.” Or, if you’d prefer a hot beverage, treat yourself to a coffe [sic].

Caligula Overdose
Caligula Overdose, a JRPG for the PlayStation 4, takes place in a virtual world that provides an escape from everyday life in the form of an “idyllic” high school setting. That’s not how I remember high school, but hey—at least there’s a soda machine. Thanks, Tikhon!
Jailbreak
It’s no wonder 28,490 people are playing Jailbreak on Roblox as I type this. Check out those snazzy soda machines!
