"The flipper response and simulated gravity/movement within the software sometimes felt unrealistic, flipping the ball at high speed in a seemingly random direction."

The problem with all video pinballs.

Looks to me like every other virtual pin out there. What sets yours apart from the likes of vpcabs?

Sorry could not help myself....been hanging around pinside to long....my mom raised a good kid....then I found this site...now I'm tarnished forever...!!!...Ohh yaa....I was merely being because your acting like these haven't been around for like the last 10 years....but now that I snapped out of my pinside self....I hope you enjoy the virtual pin..............Joey

is this any different then the "ultra pin" that was built years ago?

looks great and all any price point mentioned

I've got to ask, why is it that digital pin playfields have this weird 2d/3d mixture? To me they always look very flat and boring. Is this the best that people can come up with to fit the cabinet and viewing angle of the game perhaps? Personally I think the 3d Pinball Arcade looks the best if you are taking this route.

Personally I would never buy a digital pin, they never hold up game play wise as well as real ones and they never successfully replicate a real machine. I have never understood the appeal of digital pins unless maybe you are very short of space, but then again if you can fit this you can fit 1 real one, and personally I would rather have 1 real one.

It is a video game that emulates a pinball machine.
It is not a real pinball machine.
Just my $.02

If your gunna hang around here OP...you need some thick azz skin..............Joey

Dunno, if he went on KLOV and posted about a new commercial mame machine they would roast him alive. This is despite the fact that emulated games are much easier to do right versus virtual pinball.

Get it perfect all they want.....we want the real thing....who is paying 5k for a toy they are not into...???....because if they were into pinball...they would buy the real thing.....this is one avenue where technology should just stay out...!!!....there is a reason pins haven't changed in decades.....if it ain't broke...don't fix it....(insert broken down pin joke here)..............Joey

I'm not anti-VP, because at the very least they allow new players to get into the hobby and appreciate the game... as well as provide some practice for learning rules/tournament games.

The main issue at this point in time with ANY virtual pinball machine no matter how sophisticated it may be is the lack of good software. Future Pinball and Visual Pinball are good hobbyist products, but neither is refined enough for a commercial product. I assume this product uses these platforms, yes?

If the Farsight guys (Pinball Arcade) ever release a version of their software for virtual cabinets... that would be something. Pinball Arcade feels the most accurate and playable to me, no contest.

Where's PPS?

This lot have been profiting from HyperSpin/HyperPin setups for far too long.

If you're going to sell an $6-8000 virtual cabinet at least spend the $3 to include 2 buttons on both sides.

I have build a VP cabinet and the biggest issue I have is keeping up with the newest software and tables authors create/update, either from vpforums or vpuniverse. I think a huge selling point for this or VPCabs is to have some kind of update software installed in the cab the would update core software/tables automatically.

Pinside.....rude.....nooooooooo

At least it has a real lockdown bar which is more then I can say for Stern Pro models

Well, actually you could be in a SLIGHT legal area here because what I can gather with 3D head tracking you're using Future Pinball, awesome!

Future Pinball never allowed the use of roms but still uses countless pieces of IP.

Sell the machine without your BIG SELLING point of 200+games shipped, just like most other VPin cabinet places who don't take the piss.

You would have to be a serious mug to purchase this for £5K with only 2 buttons and no add ons. Ultimately this is just a wooden box with 2 tv's for £5K.

But yes they view mame as a kind of evil because people gut good arcade games for mame cabinets. Then again, people occasionally use old pinball machines to make virutal pins.

OP....there are a handful of titles that use a second set of buttons..(for magna save)...most are very popular and are a must if you purchase something like this............Joey

I'd be interested in seeing some confirmation of the license.

I'm sure they're just using Farsight's Pinball Arcade, doesn't that have all those titles?

Pinball Arcade don't have 200+ titles, neither do they do portrait mode like that!

The flipper response and simulated gravity/movement within the software sometimes felt unrealistic, flipping the ball at high speed in a seemingly random direction.

That has FP written all over it.

May have changed, but last I checked with the VPcab guys, TPA doesn't run on the full size Virtual pinball games. Only the mini ones. That or they didn't have the rights to run it on the full size, I cannot remember.

Yes I had picked up on that. I just don't like seeing roms, tables etc blatantly being sold in public. Which just strengthens my own case to not put out anything I create.

Could be SKIT-B?

The OP has clearly stated he is not responsible for making this game and is just reporting it's existance. Unless he isn't telling the truth I'm confused by people jumping on him as if he's building it.

Well, they more or less are. Why didn't Bespoke come do this themselves?

While I don't own a vp cabinet game, there's a market and people buying them.
They are moving over 200+ games a year, doesn't mean u have to like it...more people playing any form of pinball, on the phone or vp cabinets or the real thing is better then not playing at all. Regardless of the cost high or low.

I don't know. I just wanted to point out what other people seem to be over looking. Your post was the last one I had read at that point and the one that seemed to be most accusatory in tone. I see you do understand it now but still feel it needed to be pointed out. Thanks.

Behave yourself.

Why are you going round in circles over it? Check post #37 again and again so it sinks in or read it out loud.

1. Stop peddling roms & tables. 2. Deal with it.

Roll up, roll up. Future pinball in a wooden box for £5k.

I just don't like seeing roms, tables etc blatantly being sold in public.

You're blowing this comment way out of proportion. In general, whether you, bespoke or ebay users.

If it's not your product (WHICH, YES, YOU CLEARLY STATE OVER 10x ITS NOT) then you have nothing to keep flapping on about.

Wait till the night crowd gets ahold of him....lol....look around pinside OP....99% of threads turn into this.....I used to come here for pinball related things when I first started....now this is mostly an entertainment outlet....a lot of it is really funny....so the real me says..."Thank you for sharing your news"....the pinside me says...."Pfff...Thanks a lot for sharing something that's been around for over a decade..get a little better again"........have a great day OP and welcome to pinside....I won't yaa no more....sry dude.....so are you into real pinball...???....if so what do you like....I went from Star Trek...to Iron Man to now my fav is Metallica....have a great rest of your day man............Joey

I mean, in my collection alone I have 3 games with more than one button per side (WCS, Shadow, BK2K). Anything with magna-save or that controls a feature (Medusa, SST) would be difficult to play. Not something I'd consider necessary if I was building a virtual pin, but if I was buying one at an insane super premium price, I sure would want them.
