Quoted from dgilmore80:

I just got back to playing pinball after a 5 year sabbatical. Basically, I have a heated and cooled 4k sq.ft. garage that houses 3 cars, my game room, and a pool room. i originally built the garage to work on my hot rods, but I'm getting too old for that, so it's getting run over by the games. I bought most of them NIB back in the 90's, and only JP2 and EHOH lately.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from hooch333:

Just got the pool finished in front of the arcades. I have moved all the Pins up in the Jailhouse, and moved all the other arcade games into the Texaco station. Next project is a 25' tall old school neon sign with a 136" "dive in" movie screen, so we can watch movies poolside. Hopefully after that a miniature golf course, but still need to convince the wife on that one.

Quoted from Red_Devils:

Been a long time since I last posted here. Made changes to the lineup and additions to the room. Thought I'd post a video this time, It's only a small room but I love it

Quoted from BeeGeeMtl:

First of all, allow me to post a shot of part of my own mancave. I've been in the movie business for about 25 years now, I run a popular movie fansite called JoBlo.com and we also have a pretty massive YouTube network for movie trailers/clips. I've only gotten into pinball for 2-3 years now but as you can see, I'm evolving quickly!!! (that's also the "Puffy Shirt" from Seinfeld on the far left) lol
Secondly, I'd like to say that I've been following this thread for over a year now and I LOOOOOVE looking at what everyone has done with their own stuff, it's very inspiring and as a life-long collector of all things, we recently developed and are now working on a new YouTube show called JOBLO'S COLLECTORS CORNER. Our first episode focuses on all things BATMAN (mostly '89) and we have a section in the show called "Show us your Sh*t!" where we feature cool stuff from other collectors. If you want to contribute to future episodes, please check out our call to action ( https://www.joblo.com/movie-news/are-you-a-collector-show-us-your-collection-for-our-latest-video-series ) or just PM me via Pinside, I'm here every other day. Thanks in advance and keep the creativeness going, folks!!

Quoted from drfrightner:

Check this out... for this interactive mini golf we're building we'll have a pinball hole. We took a very very very old super wide body and rebuilt it so it can shot golf balls instead of pinballs. We just finished retheming the cabinet. Once we get it all done it will have a real games beside for theming and I'll share some pics.

Still working away on our game room but getting closer to getting it finished. Getting there. If you're ever in St Louis stop by www.StLouisEscape.com within the next month we're hoping to add JJP new game and Avengers.

Quoted from dirkdiggler:

We're filling a bucket every 8 hrs trying to catch up for the week it wasn't running. It is a major pita. Going to hook it up to a hose for continous drain and drain it down the sewer.
Curious on how much you guys run the dehumidifier? We talk to people here in our town and they run them 24/7 year long. I'm thinking 4 hrs on, 4 off. Wife thinks one day on, one day off. Thoughts?

Quoted from Thor-NL:

Quoted from NeilMcRae:

my arcade oct 2020:

I did a more detailed walk through:

Quoted from bob_e:

Soon you will have 4 games in the room, it all starts with one then a second... then they come home 2 or 3 at a time.

Quoted from tamoore:

Love these rooms. They're fantastic!
This is my 2020 walk about video.
Lots of changes in 2020, but very few visitors for obvious reasons.

Quoted from KellerDj:

Finally got my room finished who needs a dining room when you can have a game room, its not much but it is the space i have available.
[quoted image]

Quoted from rai:

ACK..
I just moved down to Florida so my games were in storage for 2 months.
My game room is still under construction, had a two sided fireplace which we made into one sided so I don’t have a darn fireplace and hole in my game room wall. Also had one big wall open to the kitchen which we closed, we are still waiting for doors. Windows are covered in tint to block 98% of UV light.
Should be getting R&M next week and have room for 4-5 more pins eventually. Games are not in final position because still some work to do around the baseboards.
[quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from Averell:

Man, you all have these big basements... you should be lucky guys.
I have no space for more than 4 Pinballs... maybe if I would do some improvements, but not without loosing needed workspace.
So I have to leave it as it is... and I'm happy, too.
But to be honest, I have prepared the room on the other side where currently the sauna is.
If I get fed up of the sauna someday there's space for 5 more Pinballs.

Quoted from punkin:

I wonder how people in the tropics are ever allowed to have pinballs?
Someone once said they thought it was terrible because i had pinballs near my spa bath....
I live a stones throw from the ocean, salt air is doing more to my machines than humidity.

Quoted from drfrightner:

I've shared these photos before but we've re-done the place. We make it darker with yup you guessed a custom printed carpet that is blacklight.
I'll tell you what I'm trying to sell my house currently, and when I do the first thing I'd doing is making a custom printed blacklight carpet. Trust me it will be epic!
Anyway thought I'd share!
You can only play these pinball machines when our haunted house is open which it is this for two special events "Krampus" and "Bloody Valentines" yeah yeah I know. We're obviously open during the Halloween season. [quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from Ceckitti:

Not as elaborate or big as alot of the great ones here, but its the room the wife and daughter give me LOL
Can easily and comfortably fit 5 down there. So naturally I have 7

Quoted from Jstampa:

[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]It's just the start of my game room. I have a Star Wars premium and an original Chicago Ms Pac Man coming next week. I also have a Munsters I want as well as POTC. I have Spiderman 2016 version and Avatar on my list also. I just need to find more room. I'm using an office room which used to be a master bedroom before the extension was added. I told the wife we can convert the living room. She told me to GTH. I do have a man cave I think I will convert but It's nice having that for family that visits. I can ship them in there and close the door after long days of arguing. Somehow I'll figure it out. The popcorn machine is new but it's in the man cave now and not with the pins. The little space invaders was something I picked up for $150 and it's nice for my daughter because its small for her size.

Quoted from Dayhuff:

Why not? Trust me, the more outlets the better. I have installed well over two hundred in my basment and I'm probably only using 2/3's of them at the most but the rest are there if I need them.

Quoted from cdc99999:

I'm regularly looking at these games room posts and often show them to the wife, it's nice to see the different ideas and visions for them. They are all unique and awesome regardless of size and style, after all, we do it for ourselves and they reflect our personalities and tastes.
We were taking pics for someone today and she convinced me to share them on this forum so, here are a few before and after snapshots of our Man Cav... I mean Family Cave... we're very proud of it... ROCK ON and STAY SAFE guys, CHEERS!

Well I gotta start somewhere.
Having a new house built now, only the footers are in so far.
[quoted image]
But I figure about 25 machines (shown by the gray boxes) could fit in the rec room, more in the bedroom and unfinished basement of course!
Bonus feature is a cargo lift that goes to the garage on the first floor.
Will post pics in a year when it's all settled in.

Quoted from herbertbsharp:

Tore out 1/2 the 2nd floor of this old addition on my house and turned the whole thing into a game room with a loft. My favorite addition is the animated neon kung-fu sign hanging from the loft. Picked up a bunch of new games for the line-up in the last couple weeks and I'm really liking where I'm at with it right now. BTW this is the main entrance to my house LOL

Quoted from Squanch137:

First time poster here. These game rooms are amazing! We have an established room that has grown quite a bit over the pandemic. My husband's birthday is coming up and I'd love to surprise him a neon sign but don't even know where to begin! We have mostly pinball. Was thinking Pinball Alley or something like that. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Quoted from addams40:

Don't know if you consider a gameroom. It's a living room and only 3 pins. Addams Family Gold #40 autographed by the master Lawlor 4x. A Pirates of the Caribbean LE JJP #95. And my newest edition Godzilla Premium. Play them between watching TV. Lol

Quoted from Parkshow30:

Just picked up a nice Judge Dredd yesterday from fxdwg! Added some adjustable height bar stools from Amazon and cut down and raised my table to make more room for pins. Still have room left for 1 more! Tried a panoramic picture at the end to get the whole main gameroom in one shot.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from Parkshow30:

Thanks! I would love an Indiana Jones, it’s one of my wife’s favorite games and I enjoy it as well. Unfortunately it’s going to be out of our price range. I’m hoping Jaws is released from Stern and I would add a pro in a year or two.

3-minute walk thru taken 02-19-22. Feels great to have activity after the long Covid hiatus.

Quoted from Gornkleschnitzer:

Soon to be my game room space. Pinbot head under the window for scale.
[quoted image]
This was my grandparents' house, grandpa moved into a home recently and agreed to sell off the house at the insistence of at least one of his children. This broke my mom's heart, because not only was she tasked with contacting a realtor, he built the house himself in the 1950s for not just his family but his decades-long photography studio business. It's also far nicer, in many different ways, than the house I've been living in for the past year and a half. Also, the amount of money he wanted for it just happens to be about the same as the current market value of mine, somehow.
The same day my mother sent the preliminary email to our local realtor, I made a huge decision, and I called her up and derailed the plan. The realtor is now working on selling MY current house - deal is basically closed at this point - and my girlfriend and I have been spending evenings packing things up. She was hesitant about the idea of moving at first, but between seeing everything in person and being told the personal history of the house, had a pretty quick change of mind.
Now that the back story is out of the way, here's the more relevant info. The room pictured here was the actual photography stage, full of individually controllable lights and a whole row of switched outlets. For the last 25-30 years, though, it has been a computer room, with a wraparound countertop on the two opposite walls. Some of the computer space will stay as it is, but I will leave a large spread-out section of desktop free to do assembly and board work.
The windows can be covered up for UV safety, the bookshelves are headed for the other half of the basement where Matti gets her library room, and the file cabinets (personal documents plus game manuals) will go where the green cabinet is currently placed on the left. That empty space will comfortably fit five games, with our Night Moves cocktail table fitting between the desktop and the door. Once the glass-top desk is relocated, there will be enough floor space not only to play the games, but to set out a playfield rotisserie if needed. Technically, I could leave out the file cabinets and fit six standard games on that main wall, but one of those games is the homebrew-in-progress Volcano Blast, and I need plenty of space to fit around it and work on it.
I will definitely post another photo once everything is in place!

Quoted from darkryder:

I said that at around a dozen games. Then I started folding games up and carefully storing them around the house. Will have 21 pins in the next few weeks and growing, only 7 of them are set up to play. It sucks, but I can rotate them occasionally and don’t have to break up the collection. Desperate circumstances call for desperate measures LOL. I have 11 pins in the master bedroom and planning to add one more. Kind of worried about the floor collapsing, ha ha
[quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from ramegoom:

Did some re-arranging in the room with back-to-back slots and pins. Added a "shrine" for the GF pin with the addition of a fiberglass AL CAPONE statue and a Vito Corleone bust. Things are less scattered and actually picked up some floor space.
