    Thanks guys --- no CGI here, just a little OCD when it comes to cable management. I also have PS3/PS4/XBOX1/WiiU wired into the cubbies under the TV. there rest of the compartments is where I stash he controllers, games, movies etc. Here are some more pics with everything on.

    glad to see another hyperspin cab... I did soooo much art for that project years ago

    I live in a 600 square foot 1 bedroom apartment in the city. When I moved in I brought 2 games with me.
    The rest were stored at three different friend's houses.
    First I used some empty space next to my bed in my very small bedroom for HS2, then BSD.
    Then I got rid of part of my couch to fit in Pinbot, then Congo!
    Feels good to finally have my favorite games under one roof and all shopped and 100% operational!

    Well, given the size of his turntable speakers, the pinball sounds must be ok!

    There's a chick around my age that lives below me. I seldom see her, but slipped her a note saying I listen to music real loud, stay up real late and have a bunch of loud ass pinballs, text me if I'm being obnoxious. Or come up and have a beer.

    So far, neither of either, I'll take it! I stop playing around 10 during the weekdays to be respectful. As for the other noises coming from the bedroom, can't help that.

    That was really smart to add the "or come up and have a beer..." She will NEVER bother you in a million years.

    Our gameroom addition just got done! Just some tweaking and a few more things to add. So I am on the lookout for another pin, maybe 2- looking mostly for a DMD, RS, T2, Twister, Space Jam or Space Invaders, High Speed. No need for HUO, I just want to play! So let me know if you have something...
    Sorry, pics were taken just before our draft so a lil messy!

    Nice setup Lefman! What slot do you have there? Have a few to keep mama happy myself. Can't have a pinball arcade without a Pinball Slot machine!! I even customized the front with custom cut face plate and inlaid real gold plated pinballs. To much time on my hands.....

    Where can one find the digital slot machines like the Michael Jakson one you have? Looking to find/see the prices for a used IM or WOZ digital slot machine. I have the toppers for those. Internet searches come up blank for those kind of slots.

    Similar to Pinball I always suggest starting with the primary slot forum which would be NewLifegames. Start with their classified adds or simply post a want to buy. Your mailbox will be full in 1 hour. lol Yes you can find these on the net (I have Every Bally and WMS game now) but buying from many of the dealers direct or Ebay will be Really pricy. If you run into trouble or have questions just PM and I can try to help. For me the digital games are the most fun especially with the misses. You can change out the game and bam, new machine. Who would have guessed the best slot games would come from none other that Bally and WMS! Sad......

    I rearranged the line up to fit in some new additions. I should probably sell something like the Popeye or NGG at some point to free up space.

    I'd like to know as well. Been trying to find a "Hangover" slot machine for my wife.

    Hangover is obtainable but a bit difficult as it was a Topper bonus game. Unlike pinball, many slots Require the use of a topper for its primary function. I have seen them though. Good luck!

    What are the prices like? Say, if a decent entry level pinball machine is $1k, how much is a decent entry level slot?

    Nice gameroom. That JP is desperate for a light shield however.

    Slots are Very much like Pinball. You can buy one arm bandits just like Vegas for $200 all the way up to 15K if you want the cool newest hot theme especially if its still in the casino. Example, a $200 standard old style slot machine no problem. If you want to find the same machine in a Pinball Barcrest link I showed that title is Hot and hard to find and pushes upward of 2k Plus. All depends on your tastes and wallet. lol If you let me know what type game you want I am sure I can point you in the right direction and make sure your looking at a fair deal anyway. Its an odd market like pinball.

    Not really sure I'm interested. My BIL bought a super cheap looking Japanese one and I just want something nicer when he comes over, full disclosure HA! Looking at maybe $500.

    Caveat emptor, newlifegames is NOT set up like Pinside. It is an ooooooold website. Pinside is fairly cutting edge as far as a forum and the available features. Good luck hunting! I've gotten lost in NLG a couple times (looking for an IGT twilight zone!)

    I can't post a pic in a pm to you, so wondering if a used WOZ slot that goes under this topper and behind this surround is as much as the WOZ pin, or is it more reasonable? I didn't find one on the forum that you reference. You can pm me with any info or suggestions to not take this thread off topic. I have a similar IM slot topper too.

    Those 4 in the picture are some of my favs for sure. Nice setup!

    #9182 6 years ago

    Just a word of advice for slots, stay away from Pachislo slots. They're the ones with the three buttons on the front (skill stop). They are not real Vegas slots and not licensed for the most part.

    Stick to the 80's and 90's Bally and IGT. Best for home use, and are normally casino stock. I have a room full of E-series Bally's and they work great, almost impossible to break unless the sit too long unused.

    #9183 6 years ago

    The Mario themed ottomans are really cool. Did you make them or buy them somewhere?

    #9184 6 years ago

    That is the most interesting lineup of 4 pins I have seen on this thread , awesome!

    That's the funny thing, after a year of an awesome theater room, there had been one movie watched. Now with more machines, and a small pub table/stools, people are over all the time for football, hockey, etc...Definitely a better set up!
