    Thanks for the updates. Looking fantastic.

    Nostalgia to the max for me. I loved The Last Starfighter as a kid. They are apparently re-making it, but somehow I can’t imagine the new movie will have the same impact as the original, at least not for me.

    I can’t wait to see the mini arcade cab added to the playfield.

    Keep up the great work!

    Quoted from PinMagnet:

    Incredible! Last Starfighter Rules. Are you going to incorporate this somewhere?

    These guys (Rogue Synapse) built a real The Last Starfighter Arcade game cabinet. Check out this vid...I would love one of these...

    ...and of course I would love to have one of these TLS pinball machines that SpaceGhost and his team is building...one can only dream.

    Quoted from swillie:

    I googled rogue synapse last starfighter...free download! Can't wait to add this game to my multicade.

    Yep...all you need to do now is build one of those cabinets. All the plans are out there on the net and all you need is some skill, time and money. You gotta love the internet! The best invention since the airplane!

    Quoted from swillie:

    Tweaked the controls as best I could. You really do need dual joysticks with fire buttons to best control it, but still great fun to play. I do have my old mame cab pc/monitor to put into a dedicated cab build...
    To the OP...any chance of a desktop version of your pinball on vp9 at some point so I can play it on my mame cab?

    Add a couple of these to your cab should do the trick.

    I’m glad you'll be able to pick up where SpaceGhost left off and keep this project going. Good luck moving forward.

    The Last Stafighter is one of my all time favourite movies since I was a kid. The designs so far look amazing and I can’t wait to see it come to life.
