I once had a Twilight Zone set up in my bedroom.

Godzilla has been in there, but folded up.

I once delivered a Williams Contact to a lady way out in the woods. When I arrived I asked where she wanted the machine setup. She wanted it right next to her bed so she could - and I quote - "Get drunk as a hootie owl and play pinball until I fall into bed".

I haven’t done this but have contemplated moving into the guest room and bring more machines into the current bedroom.

Many guests have offered to sleep under my machines if no other option.

So did I. It was the first pin I ever bought, and way before I thought about buying more and making a whole game room. Yeah... things kinda spiraled out of control.

If you play when someone is trying to sleep I think it would give an entirely new meaning to "midnight madness"!

Is this setup because you don't have other space in the house or because you ran out of space? Or is this your preferred room to have them in? It does seem great from a "reaction" perspective when you show other people.

I'd feel strange about having guests in my bedroom to play games and also my bedroom is on the second floor which is harder to get a pin into than my basement game room so I'd never personally consider it for those reasons. Also I usually play at night and it would definitely keep my wife up if I had a few machines going a few feet from the bed!

I love my games but at this point in my life I am totally content to have the gameroom be the gameroom and my bedroom be a bedroom.

I’ve been in that bedroom....

In my old 1BR apartment

Judging by how many pins you have in there it's the size of my entire bloody house....

Pics or it didn't happen.

Lucky... I can't even put a pin inside the house because my wife can't stand the noise.

Put her in the garage. Problem solved

Unless you live in a 1 bed studio, I can't see how a pin in the bedroom would ever be a good idea.

When I bought a captain fantastic and tri zone they were basically end tables to a full size bed. Just remembered that.

If you decide to have a William's system 3- system 11 as a nightlight be sure to fuse those rectifiers or at least have a working smoke detector in your bedroom along with an extinguisher.

Your a lucky man I had to build a separate building

I've had a pin in my bedroom for years. It is absolutely limited to ONE, and it cannot have cool white bulbs in it. So it is always a classic game. It's for those long work nights where I get home and just want a bit of relaxed pinball before bed.

Since we live in an appartment the neighbours beneath us would'nt appreciate a pin in the bedroom very much, I guess, besides that I think this is "generally" ok (if you have the room and your partner is into this as well).

BUT, without mentioning names, I've seen "tours" of pinsiders homes with games in each and every room, blocking access to cupboards, kitchen appliances etc., that's when things get out of hand imho... XD
