    Surprisingly, I couldn’t find a thread about game spacing.
    I just bought an 8th game in a space that fits 7 comfortably. I’m sure I’m not the first one to do that right?..
    Some quick measurements look like I would have about 1” between the heads with the new game. Right now I have 4-5” between them.
    Obviously I don’t want the games to ever come in contact with each other. I don’t throw them around when I’m playing. But I don’t want to worry about nudging either. What do you think? Do I need to sell a game or is this going to squeeze in there?

    Quoted from vid1900:

    You need them far enough apart to get your fat ass between them

    That cuts me deep vid lol. You’re right though. I don’t want to pull games out every time there’s a stuck ball or bulb out.

    Quoted from jackd104:

    Mine are like half an inch apart because space is tight. It’s fine for me. I nudge but never enough to move the damn machine around.

    Do you have a pic?
    I’m probably going to try it unless one of the games I have on the marketplace sells quickly. I really want to keep all my games right now and ideally keep them all on the one wall.

    I put the new game on the side wall until I finish shopping it. It makes the room feel a lot smaller where it is
