4:50
So this version by VP... Wow. This version by VPinWorkshop plays pretty well. Plays pretty well. It's not difficult to control the ball on this one. And like I always do I'll just let people know a couple things I know about this game Now it's not just shoot up the middle You can shoot up the middle all day You're kidding about not playing Don't read F in chat while you play the game
5:32
Ooh, Portland And you didn't hear us complaining Living Arcade, what's up? Wind, you suck. Looks like we're ready for the tip-off.
6:05
The home team has it. So, one of the things you can do in this game, if you find a hoops in real life, it's not just randomly shoot things, right? If you spell S-H-O-O-T, you start a multiball.
6:25
Attention. Already? Ready to the pinball theater. Already? You guys are done already? Ah, crap. Three point. Ah, crap. I missed it. 3-pointer. What's up, Bliptronic? Thanks for the rate. 3-pointer.

Nice, yes, it's Footstream's birthday.
8:52
Footstream's birthday. I got zero three-pointers. That's how good I am today. Let's do the million dollar shot.
9:09
Oh, crap. Million dollars, million dollars. Damn it. Are you still C. Bobby, motherfucker? Dang it. Yeah, let me write that down.
9:49
I don't want you to be what you're not. And boy, that was a fast five minutes. So you have two more redeems on the shooting.
10:00
Mudder, Fudder. And that's all, folks. Mudder, Fudder, text fix. All right. That was a pretty awful game. I would like one shooting for my birthday, please.
10:25
Well, look at who redeemed the custom sound. Hopdog. What you saying? Hopdog. It's Hopdog Mania.
10:37
It's Hopdog Mania. I like that. All right, motherfucker. Well, what you say That you only meant well when Cause you didn't You know what's weird? So today I went to look at my ChannelPoint control panel And it disappeared from Twitch It disappeared from Twitch So I don't know What's going on on Twitch They moved it, where did they move it Why would they freaking move it
11:33
I'm going to wake up with that song stuck in my head again Viewer points or something Did you not get No, I didn't get any emails I don't read emails Emails and me don't. We're not friends.
11:48
One day, could you and George do some SSS bids for VPN streaming specifically? Huh? One day, could you and George do some SSS bids for VPN streaming specifically?
12:03
I don't know. What do you mean, Dondi? I feel like we did, but I think you're looking for something specific. Because the word specifically was in your sentence. I'm wondering what specifically you really want Instead of Oh, on-site Instead of on-site mobile Oh, so here's what's interesting, Donnie I'm just going to feel that for a moment Um George doesn't Oh, let's do Utah Jazz One of the only teams that doesn't end with S George doesn't stream Um On location a lot Okay I stream on location a lot.
12:51
My whole setup is based on... Yeah. Oh, dang it. All right, I'll fix it. My very elusive camera likes to do that to me. my new fancy camera likes to do that to me so I'm gonna look I'm still here I haven't gone anywhere so Dondi we can do Here, I'll turn it back on. I think it's funnier with my... I think it's funnier without me. Right? Let's play a game without me.
13:53
Um. Let's see if we can start a multiball. I love that you guys are just using the screen now. I'm fully capable of turning the screen back on, but I'm not going to do it yet. We'll see what you guys can do with that screen.
14:24
Good nudge, good nudge. What else you got? Oh, crap. Don't play pictures. I remember when he used to show his face on stream. I'm guessing it's mostly the same as the SS Bigs.
14:43
Mystery Pinball Theater. Is it possible with the support of viewers like you? And that's all folks. Thank you Hop Dog.
14:55
I'm black. Okay, here we go. By the way, that's my mom's joke. That's my mom's joke. Ugh. Yeah, so Dandy. Not too much changes. It's more if you want a camera pointing to monitor or direct capture. camera connection to China fails nice to see a v-pin setup yeah so flipstream thank you because oh the game's over I just lost the game flipstream thank you because to put it very simply Oz Eric hey hey how's it going to put it very simply this setup here on my cab right now i set this up on my cab because i was using the footprint of this pinball machine to build a mobile rig so if it makes sense like all i did was say i acted like this was a real pinball machine like a physical pinball machine i turned it on i put the backups on and i set up my cameras as if it was a real pinball machine because my focus was going to be on location streaming.
16:28
So nothing really changed. Missed it by that much. You can, direct capture would actually be easier. Yeah, so direct capture, I do have direct capture on here.
16:39
You know, it would be interesting if I showed you guys that. Check this out. I'm going to show you what it looks like. So this is camera because like I said I set it up so that the camera would work.
16:54
I'm going to show you guys what it looks like with direct capture. Now if we go to my playfield scene.
17:07
Where's my playfield scene? Here's my playfield scene right here. Now, once again, this is just camera shooting a virtual pin.
17:22
This is me capturing the screen. Notice how it looks. What's up, Chris? Secret sauce. Whatcha say? That you only meant well Cause you did Whatcha say? That it's all for the best Cause it is Whatcha say?
18:07
Hmm. so notice how it looks physical virtual pin secret sauce right Hawkeye says flip stream whenever I stream and capture in 4k I have another machine processing because it will stutter for sure and I'm running Nvidia 2080s nice crispy it looks kind of crappy yeah it does doesn't it what's the drop in resolution on the capture blah blah so look at I'll actually play a game welcome to NBA I absolutely don't like this This is terrible for me. First of all, the stutter is ridiculous. It's not smooth at all. And it's a weird kind of aspect ratio. Yeah, hey, what's up Terry? How's it going, man?
19:02
How's it going? Now other people can get this to work better but Um those flippers So now I going to go back to I going to go back to my pinball capture
19:21
Look out! Here comes the ball! This is me once again with cameras. Here comes the jump ball! This is with cameras now.
19:32
How awesome is that? I mean, it's so much better. I'm glad Terry's here now We can actually have our little conversation about Virtual pincaps too Because Terry built an insane virtual pin I could actually backhand that? That was crazy Oh no!
20:00
Also you guys can see when I shake the table I will say it took a long time for me to realize It was a virtual table with Overhead camera Okay Terrible for us too Drek seems like a loose term here Yeah This is a 1080 screen This is a full 1080 How long does it take for a t-shirt redemption to arrive generally I don't know It really depends on stream elements The stream elements is sending them out um if it if it's taking too long let me know and i'll i'll check the order and see if it's uh like i said if it's taking too long i'll check the order and see if it's uh there's something wrong don d keep in mind you need a camera for the play field yourself and potentially dmd and yeah so that's what i got i got a camera on me i got a camera on the play field um at home i direct capture actually the back glass is being direct captured right now. And the DMD is being direct captured. Because I don't want to waste, I don't want to use cameras on those. It's not even important.
21:10
Wonka downstairs is a real table, yeah. Wonka gets better and better every, Wonka gets better. Micah and I discovered how to hit playfield multipliers on Wonka today. We were like, it was like a brand new game once again. We learned how to light super axes. And it was a completely different game. But anyway, I'm getting ahead of myself Let's talk Okay, let's see if I can get the million dollar shot Can I get the million dollar shot?
21:42
That's not it That's it! Boom! You want me to get back in there? Then you gotta give me the ball Um, is anything real? For real Donnie says it looks like Say goodbye to your balls It looks like I'm looking at three cams for my laptop The external USB encoder for the over-cam Blah, blah, blah Whirl 777, what's up?
22:16
Are we real? You know, this is only my second time ever popping over here I apologize Oi, hey, welcome to the theater So then you get a welcome to the theater You get a real welcome to the theater Thank you for checking me out Checking out my stream There are a lot of really fun Virtual pinball streamers though Outside of myself Can somebody tell me the answer to this question What team won two NBA titles With Joe Dumars As a starting guard What team was that Somebody tell me 49ers It's too late Little bubble gum That's a football team Stop talking Alright so we got a multi-ball going What's up Wax The last person I need to listen to For basketball trivia Is Little Bubble Holy smokes That was insane You got me girl Very good That's pretty decent Pittsburgh Steelers Let's see Should I rebuild this one next?

24:08
All right. Alex Trebek gets a ghost. Rest in peace. Rest in peace. Peace. Purple. It's amazing, amazing, amazing.
24:24

That's not the left ramp, that's the left orbit Oh We really need a kick-ass hockey pin. And that's just... Zanzibar. Hockey pin. We have a hockey pin. We have... Don't we have a hockey pin?
25:36
I don't think so. Laser Q and for some reason Bone Busters have been the most requested tables for me for years. Bone Busters. Is that a Gottlieb? Yo nerds Backhand Yo nerds Alright So Wow I got a high score Okay What you say That you only meant well Cause you did What you say That it's all for the best If your score matches the winning car number, you're going home a winner.
26:23
Oh, too bad. No match. All right. Here's what I want to do. I'm going to go over to chat for a minute.
26:34

26:43
Yeah. Is it? Hey, Squirrel Gravy, thank you for the follow. All right. Okay. So here's what I want to do real quick. Let's talk about V-Pin cabinets, right? This is a V-Pin cabinet. This is the one I built. We did this. We were talking about it. Happy birthday, Jordan, once again.
27:02
PinBot, open internet. Well, you're the boss, boss. Oh, then why did it do that? Say cheese. Cheese. I don't know why I'm saying cheese, though. I don't have the Polaroid thing here.
27:16

27:31
Who's that ugly? All right. Take it easy on the Redemptions right now. Good night, mutterfutter. Thank you so much for joining.
27:43
I'll see you later, bud. so first up we're going to talk about some of these cabinets and if you guys know any have any uh input on these just let me know um at games now a lot of you guys know about i heard about at games at first from uh scotty wick who you know was uh i think it was a creating pizza time um for at games um let's see so at games has hmm do you think they wanted at games but was taken so they have a line of virtual pinball cabs obviously right um they're getting pretty good reviews let me see what let's see what the build is 22 licensed arcade pinball so these are the ones that come with games i think these come with Gottlieb Games. 32-inch high-definition LCD, 15-inch flat-back glass, high-performance Wi-Fi, Bluetooth support, ArcadeNet. They have BYOG, which is Bring Your Own Game, which means you can put your own games on there, I guess. This product needs to have a tiny human standing next to it for scale. Yeah, it does. Second place, Andy. I think you're right couldn't register the name at games has some crap out there but some nice stuff as well have to be careful copyright 2020 by farsight okay it's an android-based system bring your own gay um and their twitter handle is taken too i'm really concerned about the input lag on flipstream i'm concerned about input lag on every single one of these Who has a V-Pen that doesn't have any input lag? Raise your hand right now. Weird, fragile, partially DIY connections for V1.
29:49
So like a mobile version of a Gottlieb Zachariah. Yeah, mobile versions of Gottlieb and Zachariah tables. What's up, Brian O'Neill? World's first connected pinball? Is that what it says?
30:00
Yeah, you know what that means? it's just the you could you can you i think you can play against other people it's got arcade net so at games gets pretty decent reviews on the internet like on the youtube channels i've been looking at. Right. So I think score bit connected pinball before that. Well, Brian, you have to you have to put a score bit first for physical pinball tables. But this is computer pinball tables, right? So that's, that's it. And there, there's also something called orbital, orbital scoring which nobody really knows about but is a pretty big deal with the virtual pin community that actually did do it a while ago but physical tables no um so if you need a pc and you want fp and vpx ff3 uh foresight and i'm pretty sure pretty sure jous lets you play pinball versus has a streaming service right a streaming service yeah which is cray cray it's got a streaming so I can you okay we have input lag already on a local game can you imagine the input lag on a streamed pinball machine that's something that I wouldn't I wouldn't and glorious 29.95 frames per second um that's scorbital is it what is it called it's called orbital orbital pin that's Scotty Wick's thing orbital pin um Scotty Wick did a thing that's similar to scorbit but for virtual pinball machines okay let's move on let's move on lag lag lag lag let's move on so but this is i like to be twitch connected batman i'd like it'd be like twitch connected batman 66 right the one that's all the way in the netherlands something like that orbital scoreboard thank you dandy okay so this is not about really kind of rating these systems this is letting people know that they exist okay so there's at games you can look for them i think their games are somewhere in the neighborhood of uh products well this is the pinball but how much does it cost
32:19
view games list oh look at this oh this is oh this is this is brilliant this is freaking brilliant al's garage band goes on a world tour you know what it's worth it just for that there's your list of games 599 thank you mr scoot 599 oh my god 600 bucks but you don't have to there are no lights but there's haptic feedback there is haptic feedback worth it for the class of 1812 yeah so we're looking at the thing so so just quickly at games kind of got it right because they they got kind of the better got leaves question mark i'm not sure but mr scoot which one are you getting i know you're getting one which one are you getting mr scoot and by who um this one okay yeah so at games is probably the thing i love about the at games thing is that bring your own game so you can load your own games not sure about the streaming service that could be a cluster cluster f but the got leaves they got are good the zacharias they got are good and i think you could just put your own games on there has surrogate ever set up a table in the americas people might be pleasantly surprised wait wait okay let's let's not get ahead of ourselves i swear to god they're three years behind all right let's not get ahead of ourselves let's look at let's go to the next one i'm gonna go to the next one guys so you're you're free to go check out at games at games.net um here's another one so arcade one up now you know these guys right i'll accept the cookies sure you know arcade one up um they make the cabinets right uh people already got vpx running on it awesome yeah mr scoot you're gonna have fun you're gonna have fun oh man you get afm on a one up yeah mr ski people have been running a vpx on their pcs connected to this yeah um thank you arcade one up i got you so arcade one up happens to have the pinball effects tables right so that's why you get something like attack from mars so they are in cahoots with zen and so they build these tables with the star the star now these these are really good tables i mean obviously attack from mars i'm not even going to talk about the williams tables right now um uh let's see nail buster what's up nail buster spend your money on a vr headset and play pinball nail buster i agree but that's that's that's i think we'll talk about those later like if you to eliminate lag completely play in vr but here's what we here's here this is just a helper for people who want to look for a um a virtual pin to buy right hot dog are adding other tables the easy process so would you like to have to jailbreak it i don't know i don't know about anything else than what the company gives you and they all have a solution for adding more games so you'll see exclusivity deal with zen um what are these models giants yeah i don't know if you look at this right here most of the people i've looked at on youtube said that the um they said that the tables don't feel too small they feel just right there was a guy like six feet tall who was doing a review for one of these and said a table felt felt just right size wise compared to his huge body um the size of the machines oversized tommies tomies tomies the tomies wax you know tommy uh is there nudging on any virtual pins um yes there are i see that's a that's a feature let me see nudging shoot I don't they got the Star Wars tables the Star Wars tables are fun digital this has a digital this has a plunger now all these games you could buy on Pinball FX right now and play them we'd have to I'd have to I'd really have to see.
36:59
Brian, I'd really have to see. Is this pinball for ants? So the height is exactly the same as a stern ATV at the flipper buttons.
37:11
The AtGames has nudging. This has nudging, not button. Yeah. The AtGames has nudge with accelerometers. Yeah. That's the one you want. Like, mine has nudge. Mine has accelerometer. It has an Oak Micros pin skateboard in it, so you can nudge. You know, it's simulated nudging, but it's still nudging.
37:36
All right, so 1UP has a really good reputation. They're the ones that make, you know, these guys make all the things.
37:47
They make the arcade cabinets, you know. These are these guys. Space Ace, Dragon's Lair. I think they got the Ms. Pac-Man that's out.
37:57
So these guys have a pretty good reputation for making stuff. I would venture to bet that their virtual pinballs are pretty decently built too. But take a look at that if you want to see the comparison between at games and one up let see one up guys who guys who quote just want to play and looks nice you can set up a cellar on the meters and any setup don't need a pin cap just just have to make a controller yeah you can wax it's just you know if you're in this market for buying a virtual pinball from somebody else you probably don't want to build anything you probably don't want to you know you probably don't want to you don't want a project you just want to pay somebody in and go um but yeah you're right you're 100 right about that let's see what's this now this is a company called vp cabs and this is a dude touching or almost touching a vp cab This company here is way, way more high end. So look at this guy. The wizard is you could buy a Willy Wonka for the price of this virtual.

You can buy a physical table. Now, mind you, you're buying one physical table. when you get a VP cap you have hundreds of tables at your disposal right but this is for the guys who have some cash right were they on Shark Tank that's a good question were these the guys on Shark Tank that's a good question one of these companies was on Shark Tank I wouldn't mind a generic cabinet to play all my already owned PFX 2-3 tables Yeah, Roz, yeah So Roz, my table here that I built I play Pinball FX 3 I play Virtual Pinball I play Future Pinball I play Time Shock Which is a one-off I don't play Farsight Because it's garbage Ooh, those upsells These are beyond overpriced What the hell hardware is in there anyway You really want to look now, Wax, don't you?

8 solenoids, a shaker motor. I have a shaker motor in mine. I disabled it. I don't want it anymore. I actually disabled my shaker motor because I don't want it anymore. It's an i5, 240 gig, a GTX 1060 Microsoft Windows 7?
41:18
What the... What? I'm not, no, I'm not paying $7,000 for a machine that comes with Windows 7.
41:32
Okay. All right. I bought Avengers IQ that has Shaker Motor in it. Does anybody want to buy it? You want to sell the Shaker Motor, Brian?
41:43
I like Shaker Motors. Like the Wonka has a nice Shaker Motor, but my V-Pen, I don't want it anymore because it's just, it's a little loud and I don't need it.
41:52
Terry says Shaker is the best DOF feedback. It is nice feedback. I just don't want it anymore. Why did you disable shakers? Awesome. I just don't want it anymore. I don't want to shake. I just don't want shaking anymore. I don't know why. It's stupid. I'm not asking you to turn yours off.
42:11
Yeah, I could turn it down. I disabled it. I disabled it a long time ago before you could turn them down.
42:18
What is that thing? Oh, okay. All right. Let's keep going. Oh, look at this. Back to the Future. What does this mean?

43:50
Now, Brian, there was a stand-up video. There's a stand-up physical arcade cabinet with pinball in it. T.J. Byer has one. And it's very rare.
44:04
Banzai Run. Oops, only up a play field. Varkon. Yes, Varkon. Thank you, Wax. Varkon. Real pinball machine inside an arcade cab using the mirrors you see to play fields.
44:15
So there you go. It's already zoomed in. Honestly, the best tiny pin is American Girl Flipside. yeah i agree i played it it's really laggy oh it's really laggy yeah american girl is awesome i should have included american girl in this roundup so we've got big shot eldorado centigrade black hole it looks like gotlieb so v pinners v pinners v pinners you know you know what i'm talking about remember when we used to get gotlieb roms on the internet and then remember when gotlieb forced everyone to get rid of the roms now we know where they went right now we know where they went so uh it'd be great for my nephew it's really fun uh flip side flip side is crazy fun also for 300 you can play pinball in vr yeah I guess so yeah keep trying what are Gottlieb Roms I don't know Terry it's just a word I made up those two words they just came out of my mouth I don't know what's a Rom everyone scrabbled like roaches when I said that I don't know I don't know so anyway this is interesting Walmart $3.99 Haunted House, Black Hole Digital 3 I got another one for you guys Extreme Gaming Cabinets Look at this Do you have money just Pouring out of your ass $9,999 Let's click on see now We gotta see this baby Virtual pinball Thank you for the follow Satchin Scarfin I see Nail Buster Is this the company is this the company that's selling illegal setups so one thing we do want one thing we do want to mention on here ten thousand dollars holy smokes let's do an add to cart ten thousand dollars ten thousand freaking guys don't buy this you know what i'm done now pinbot close internet you got it now you know what guys forget i even showed that freaking site that is 9k they take bank transfers so you know it's good oh my god is that an original back to the future game though well can i at least play the software for it for cheaper so i'm gonna say this if you're dealing with a a company or a person that's selling virtual cabs and and and what's installed on it is visual pinball or future pinball or pinball fx3 or any of these pinball things and they don't have an official light they're not going to have a license from visual pinball and future pinball because those are free open source not open source but free never should be sold so you you should shy away from those people because they're making tons of money and basically selling selling you stolen goods all right at games and one up arcade they're doing it the right way the developers get money the the the hardware people get money but visual pinball is not a thing you can buy it's not aud the correct term is dolly dollar dues dollar dues yeah so i wanted to make you guys if it's if it's awesome it's like monopoly money i want to make you guys aware of there are some legal routes to go and to buy cabinets i think the the i think the two we're going to come away with is one up arcade and at games right do some research look at some reviews on YouTube. Find out if it's right for you. And then, you know, for 600 bucks, you can have some fun. Like you can have some fun like that. Nobody has licensed pinup, by the way. Do you, what do you want people to license pinup? If they sell you a V pin on Wish for $10. Buy it. Just see what it is. I don't know what that is.
49:50
If you buy a 10K virtual pin, the drop bear will attack you. You guys are too funny. No. Free for non-commercial. Thank you for the bitties. Captain Zanzibar.
50:10
Nailbuster. uh nail buster your software is free for non-commercial use but if you were offered uh if you were offered a deal with someone is that something that you would consider like if someone came to you and said hey can we license is it just free for non-commercial use forever or Or are you okay with, I have many times, but I stipulate no VPX, FP, and Zen pirating. Yeah. Okay. Got it. And they never get back to me. Yeah.
50:55
I got it. So, hey, let's do the Knicks because I'm from New York. So, there you have it. Just a few ways to get virtual pinball in your life. if Brian O'Neill is still here Brian if it wasn't for the fact that it's difficult to make a virtual pin without lag without a little flipper lag I would say it might be fun for you to try one of the cabinets but without VR if you don't run VR right because VR will eliminate all the lag. But without VR, some of these cabs may have lag. And please, guys, whatever you do, don't just buy a virtual cab without playing it. I know it's really hard. It's a pandemic right now. But if you get it home and you play it and it's kind of laggy and you don't love it, it's the worst ever. It's the worst ever.
52:02
Let's see. It would be the little plastic flipper you get in the bag. I have many times, but it's really okay. There's a couple out there that do it right. They sell you everything according to the software. Yeah. Mystery Pinball Theater. Who dat? Thank you, Squirrel Gravy!
52:19
Thank you. Thank you, Squirrel Gravy! Isn't that nice? That you can contribute to the stream just by watching and pressing that button.
52:31
And you know I love you. I would be annoyed by that. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
52:49
Why can't I hit a single shot? Shoot! Boom. Oh! Second place, Andy. Thank you for the bit. We'll pay you 10k Wait a minute What Becca? We'll pay you 10k if you'll make us a special V-Pen
53:29
I'm too busy buying 18 pinball machines Grab me some channel Porsche real quick Brian, you are old. Brian, if I could find my freaking channel request queue on Twitch because they moved it, I would have done it tonight. I spent 20 minutes looking for the damn channel points. You guys just told me where it was, so now I found it. But holy crap.
53:54
Yeah, Becca, you saw me think on that, but I'm not a virtual pinball creator. There are creators here right now in the stream. There are people who actually create virtual pinball games I think they would be more suited to making a Fliptronic virtual pin Which would be amazing But it would have to come behind the mystery pinball theater Themed Pinball Game Wink wink Right? Like I'll put it in the list This is virtual? I can't tell No you can tell Come on. Cliptronic. I'll make our own, Becca. What the heck?
54:36
It's not out of the realm to have spent $8,000 to $10,000 on a V-Pen. No, it's not. It's a lot of stuff. But I spent about $5,000 on this. Over time.
54:48
Over time. It ends up being around $5,000. And I bought the wood, guys. I went and bought the freaking wood. I cut the wood myself from a lumber store. I went to a workshop And me and my buddy Frank Delario Routed the table And I built three different versions Of the back box until I was happy And all that other stuff Is there any lag on your machine? Yes, roller pinball, there is lag on my machine When I play like this I'm actually kind of compensating But when I play with VR, the lag goes away So when I'm not streaming On Twitch I'm playing pinball in VR and I'm having a ball And it feels real because I got a table in front of me I got flippers I got a plunger But the only difference is I have the VR headset on And everything feels great Like a cab, she meant a cab man Oh a cab? No Becca no Okay Dude I need to hear about your wood You didn't grow trees? I grew the trees How did you know I grew the trees Bert? how did you know I grew the trees damn it I grew the trees I made paper out of the leftover lumber there you go there's a recent YouTube vid with RK1UP Mars Table RK1UP's Mars Table the ball looks distorted and the wrong aspect ratio yeah Roz that's just them doing it wrong they're just doing it wrong that's it there's a bunch of people on the stream right now that helped me kind of dial this in, like Hawkeyes, he suggested get rid of certain aspects of the table, make it look good. And I do that. Now it looks good.
56:35
Let's do the Vancouver Grizzlies. I didn't even know it was a team. I waited until my wife left Otter one hour away for day shopping. She came home to her husband and cutting off cutting MDF from the driveway.
56:51
Cutting MDF. Awesome. Is that how it happens, Henry? Oh, man. We have stories. We all have stories. I had my army gas mask on.
57:06
He has a cabinet to work with it. There's a thing about some people having trouble suggesting that you take a dead pinball, a dead physical pinball machine, and using its innards to make a virtual pinball machine. Some people really really don like that idea Because they saying unless that physical pinball machine is completely and utterly useless why would you unless that physical pinball machine is completely and utterly useless we never suggest that you destroy a physical to make a virtual
57:44
Nail buster, friends don't let friends cut MDF. MDF is tricky. I didn't use MDF. I used, I forgot what it's called. but mdf i didn't want to deal with the mdf stuff um it won't be input lag it'll be display lag then yeah oh you're right higher pina there it is it's display lag it is it's display lag oh my god i've been saying input lag forever it's display lag damn how stupid could i get um you don't have to go to vr go vr you don't have to go to vr but finding a big screen with low delay is real hard. It is. If the machine is totally done, it's fine. EMs are tanks and can usually be fixed.
58:35
Plywood. Thank you, Flipstream. Plywood. Jesus. That's why I had my gas mask on, because I was cutting MDF. MDF is nice, though, because you don't have to do so much work with MDF. I seriously considered MDF.
58:49
I ended up going with Ply. Back in the day when I was on HyperSpin's website and we were using HyperPin,
59:02
half the guys were building with MDF, half the guys were building with plywood. I just chose plywood.
59:13
I want this multiball right here. One, two, three, four. I got one and two. I need three and four. Yeah, I hear you.
59:24
It keeps missing. It's stinky, though. Heavy. What, plywood? Yeah, plywood is heavy. Bimbo machine. Just don't go cheap and use plastic boards. No, don't use that IKEA crap.
59:42
Don't use it. Whenever Brian's in the chat, I gotta ask him questions. Brian, do you like NBA Fast Break?
59:59
Or do you avoid it like the plague? NBA Fast Break, one of my favorites. Yay! We can be friends! why do they keep saying that's great plywood doesn't crumble apart like mdf start yes imagine if ikea made a pinball machine could you imagine the book the book that it would take to put it together and there's no English, no language at all.
60:40
Alright, I'm going to finish up this game. Then we're going to head on out of here. So hopefully that was a little introduction to virtual pinball cabs that you could buy because a lot of people asked me about selling them or building them.
60:57
Your semi-instruction would be madness. Ikea pinball. Something with meatballs. Swedish meatballs on the pin.
61:04
Keep waiting for Papa to drop the price. They have one for $3,100. Probably works really nice, Brian. Probably works really nice. I so wish... I think Sean has a fast break, but I don't know if he still does, but I wish he would bring it over to Free Go Watch, man, because I would love to stream that.
61:24
Oh, come on! Oh, what am I doing? Why did I just let the ball go? Notice I... I was going to show you guys. The one thing I put on the... The game itself doesn't come with score. It only comes with basketball score. There's a DMD setting that you can turn on actual pinball score. So I turned on pinball score also.
61:53
Let's see. So the random stuff we're seeing now is just because it's a V-pin.
62:04
I'm lost. I've bought eight Papa games so far. The garage is filled. Yeah. Brian went on a bender when the whole Papa thing happened. Captain Zanzibar, thank you for coming to the theater. Thank you so much for your support also.
62:20
And have a good, good, juicy, juicy night. Have a delicious, juicy night. I don't know what that even means. Have a juicy night. Uh-uh. Boop.
62:34
Nice. I just go one, two, three, four. Any thought on the flat packs by Virtua Pen? They say it's American Maple. I don't know. Oh, it's stuck again. So, V-Pin Workshop, you guys gotta work on the ball getting stuck there. That's like the third time the ball got stuck there for me.
63:14
I need the O or the right drain. I'll take both. Physical Fast Break has a real flipper and a sort of ping-pong-ish ball. Occasionally flips into the basket for points in the back glass. Yes, it does. It's pretty cool, right? It's a ping pong ball, but it looks like a basketball. Does the ball in the back box ever miss? No, it doesn't. Not on this because it's just, it'll always, yeah, it never misses.
63:46
It never misses, Brian. It's basically an animation. Happy birthday, Jordan. Happy birthday. What you say? Oh, that you only meant well When of course you did What you say?
64:13
That it's all for the best Oh, you murderous son of a gun! I better save that replay What Twice And it's gone God diggity Manu I'm so excited to see you in the red carpet tomorrow Is it tomorrow?

65:44
