ridiculous so yeah there's two versions of this r2 agrees there's two versions there's an all-in-one 42-inch that comes with the led lights and you don't have to buy the display because it's all

buy one of these displays for your big buck hunter make sure you buy one with just good refresh rate or gaming modes on it that way it's really smooth rendering whenever you're you're shooting all of those innocent animals and also this is already up on our website the big buck hunter reloaded and then also if you want to tell them about this oh yeah thank god you're here so your escalara is going to be very helpful hauling in your brand new arcade game but the the standard strap on the escalator is not long enough for some of these games like such so we've got this on the website as well it's an extension strap for your escalara i call it the super arcade strap but it's going to extend uh the it's going to send the width on that so you can wrap it all the way around and not have to worry about being a little bit short so thank you for that so we're gonna have all the royal thrills games up here straight down though is going to cover everything it's going to be a blast 2021 is going to be busy it's going to be busy this guy he wants one in his gamer call her she'll get it we'll get it okay i think you're gonna be miss arcade all right i am super excited uh to unbox this thing nicole i'm gonna have you cut the straps then we're gonna i think most of it's kind of put together already but we shall see oh put some muscle in it stay with the chest do it okay so now i think this box comes in all right so let's get a big box here actually it's not going to come out here the guns are attached [Music] oh maybe better okay let's get these i guess that's one way to do it they need to learn from our mistakes and so that's a bar of something tight see it's all kind of put together [Music] all right i'm gonna show the people what this looks like real quick so we have the guns then this looks like the back glass right here the marquee [Music] all right so on this piece of paper it says important guns will not function properly if marquee is not placed and connected correctly okay so marquee sits on top of the monitor not in front and not behind front of the marquee sits flush with the front of the monitor marquee tab is flush against the monitor face must be flush so they're really they're saying must be flush marquee tab is centered within monitor face connect ir marquee six pin connector so that's not bad let's check it out see if you guys can see it's gonna be flush must be flush look at them exclamation points they mean business look you got the guns where's the two yeah man this is cool this is different than pimple and then how do we want to do this thing is heavy but look how cool this thing is so you get the big buck hunter reloaded that's what i like about the reloaded because it's not just a hunting thing you get your big buck hunter but then look you got your uh terminator and monster stuff too and i think i've got the i think i got the terminator topper too to go with the lit eyes i love this and then i'm gonna have like every raw thrills thing i think oh yeah tv monitor comes with it uh the stand that's awesome for the mounting i guess you could even mount this on your wall if you wanted to i like it then the guns sit here i guess yeah that's nice that looks cool i'm about to show you guys the other side of it because it's got uh it's got the monsters it's got uh terminator terminator on there oh it's awesome sweet oh it's even got the uh like a swiper in there and a bill collector already on get out of here very cool and these i guess go like so right i can't believe we're about to have a this cool of arcade dinner that's awesome okay all right guys so now you can see uh the beauty that is this side i really like the art on this side we'll get some zoom in picks for you soon but the other nice thing that nicole and i found out it's on roller so it moved around a lot easier than a pinball machine so i like that and then i think that we'll probably find we'll roll it around here so people can see [Music] cool while nicole's messing around i got to show you guys this thing how cool is this topper y'all look at that sweet this goes on top of it and the eyes light up and this came in in the package so that's awesome i think for those of you with the hd or the wild that want to upgrade to this top it's only like 100 bucks but now that i'm getting into the industry you'll see these prices go up cool well just like a pinball machine um there's some keys in here for the back of the machine and that's probably where the manual and stuff will be all right so i was going to unlock this but i noticed there's some screws right here in here so we're going to take these out [Music] hey let's see what's in here here's what we need okay the cord here and the manual all right looks like there's a power supply in here verizon 4g sim card and then you got your bag of goodies that you're gonna need built really well [Music] and also you have all your screws and hardware here and then it does say on the panorama version you want to make sure the monitor does not exceed 120 pounds that'd be rare for it too now we're going to go through the cabinet setup that walks us through the cabinet setup and getting that marquee up purchasing a monitor it tells you all about that that's really nice the pedestal it walks you through every single thing that you need to know as well as hooking the system up what do we got in there um i was going to maybe tell them about this so we got a usb here looks like it restores the software okay if you need to restore power cord or no that's the hdmi cable simple enough hardware to hook up the stands simple enough there's our power cord and our game registration for roll thrills and you guys see i get the online version so we're battling people if you don't want to build acceptor there's the with that oh this is just uh bill except for stuff okay it looks like a lot but it won't be bad let's stanch in each of the mounting holes with cabinet bolt holes at the bottom center holes should be facing inside the cabinet nice facing the back of the game route the marquee power cable through the right stanchion six-pin connector should remain on top okay so oh where'd you put those the bolt holes down here do you think it goes down all the way it looks like it gets caught there so i'm assuming it yeah yeah it goes right there so the bolt hole is at the bottom and then the center hole there goes on the inside boom then we're probably going to mount those there on to that all right now we have the poles in there as they said there's one cable coming out of there we're going to route it up through this right one all right round it up through there it'll probably go up more but we're going to do it for there for now all right now that we have that routed through the next step they want us to run the hdmi and the monitor cable so that tv screen we pulled it out of the box got the power cable from that we're going to run that up through the left side and also we're going to plug in the hdmi right in the back of the computer right there he's busy got the hdmi and you know what have been easier who just went down with it instead of no i'm just saying for people out there that you know instead of fishing it up you push it down we've got the monitor power and the hdmi routed hdmi plugged in the only thing i've seen nicole was saying that the power cable for our tv may be a little short so we may need an extension cord or something we'll see how close it is all right so the next step is to secure these to the cabinet there's a hole in the outside hole in the inside you put a bolt through there uh actually for the bolt through this side the flat one so it's not protruding out of the game right and then you attach this the problem we found is that i guess on some of these they they sent the wrong one so i'm gonna have to go get just a hair longer of this so that comes out on the outside so we're gonna do that right now we'll probably put the game together without securing that then i'll run the hardware store to grab some of those next we're going to take the monitor mount and we're going to apply it to this so we're going to take off just like you would be hanging a lcd screen tv on the on the wall we're going to essentially take these armatures off to apply it to the back of the monitor then we're going to take this plate and we're going to mount it up yeah all right the next thing we're going to do is take the mounting bracket uh this is for our monitor and we're going to put it on to this thing now uh there's hex bolts right and it wants us to use here's a set of holes here here's a set of holes here it says the third one on each it goes from here to here then that one will go from there [Music] then it's got a nylon nut to go on the outside so we'll do that now now so taking i think this is a three-eighths oh these three-eighths we're gonna tighten this hold the other end tighten all four of those what we did next was took these tv brackets and mounted them onto the tv as you would any regular lcd screen that you're hanging up the nice thing is that roll thrills provides just like a lost a lot of your tv adapters different sizes based on the tv that you're using all right so we got the tv mounted the only thing that nicole and i had to do differently was wherever we chose these on this mount this piece right here is adjustable two screws here adjusts and holds that into place it was coming down right on there so we had to take these off put the monitor on and then reapply these to secure it all right next step is going to be to take the marquee and see these things right here we're just gonna they're gonna be loose right now until you adjust it but we're gonna place those right on top oh shorty nicole we'll adjust it here a minute just says make sure not to pinch any of the cords now this is one of the most important parts of the entire marquee because in here i believe are the sensors for these guns so it has step by step and we'll walk you through it on where this needs to line up in relation to that monitor needs to be hanging just slightly over the edge of it so we'll do that now and it also gives you a indication right here for the center as well so we're going to work on that real quick here's the part that they're wanting us to pay attention to this thing can come up down front back but they want you to take there's a tab right here in the middle it's got to be overlapping the monitor uh but you want everything else flush with the monitor so we've got this positioned right now in a way it's going to sit flush and then this tab is barely going to go over the monitor as a center point we've got our depth correct so it's not overhanging too much or it's not too uh too in-depth and then we've got height wise we'll go back there and adjust it so it's resting right above that monitor all right now from the back side here we want to make sure that none of these are pinched in that uh but there's two bolts here two bolts here that are responsible for that depth we're gonna tighten those up as well as it'll tighten for let's say right there i'll tighten this whole thing up the wait is over a revolution in led lighting for your pinball is finally here fully customizable full spectrum lighting from

pinball machine the next thing we're going to do is see these cables for the marquee we're going to we're supposed to connect them here but it's opposite so i'm going to reroute this to the other side and vice versa because my power and my hdmi are over here on this side so i'm going to take those wires and just swap them reroute them all right now that they are rerouted my power and hdmi are on the correct side and this bad boy is on the correct side i'm going to take this clip it in like so bam you're good there you can always reroute this hide it make it nice and pretty light and then i'm going to go ahead and i don't know if the instructions told me but i'm going to go ahead and plug that power into the monitor as well as the hdmi so for a really clean system all right i can go back and check all my points to make sure everything is secure but i think we're set up now again on the dedicated cabinet that 42 inch cabinet you don't do any of this i think they give you instructions just to go through make sure all the connections are secure and complete before plugging it in and and testing it all out but what we're going to do we're going to spin this sucker around so that you can visually see what it looks like in your game room and then we'll plug it in and go through the diagnostics on setting the system up i'm excited oh guys i about forgot my terminator topper all right this is going to be super simple to install because it's four screws with washers they're already drilled out in the marquee for you to put them up there and then see this is just going to split that signal that we that we put right here so we're going to split it go in one way boom out the other bam bomb the only thing it kind of sucks mounting this thing is that raw thrills you can't see it but they used a security raw thrills security bit on the top i've already been talking with uh raw thrills becoming a dealer about how important toppers are gonna be for me and you so be expecting raw thrills in the future to have really really cool toppers i'm gonna take this we're gonna unclip that [Music] that goes there i'm so excited wait just wait ladies and gentlemen introducing the world's coolest toy so cool i mean how badass is this thing i am going to love killing some zombie deer let's turn it on calibrate it and then uh let's see if nicole wants to get her ass whooped up i'll run up on some kids too all right now that we have it hooked up we're going to power this thing on the power button is in the back of the cab once we have that powered on i'm certain there's probably some gun calibration that we're going to have to go through as well as system diagnostics set up etc we're going to go through that together and then we're going to start shooting some zombies all right guys now down in the cabinet here there's a couple buttons for volume and there's some buttons for test now it tells us to press test up there so we're gonna press that follow the on-screen instructions and shoot the targets to ensure that your guns fire accurately we can do that pull the trigger on the left green gun all right shoot the red dot above the monitor you got it left gun has been calibrated look down your site press the left green start button if satisfied i'm satisfied right gun look down the sights of the guns aim the gun back and forth at a steady speed press test to skip the nice thing about this system is it's a brand new tv so for the most part i've had to calibrate much of anything at all choose your connection type we're going to go with wi-fi oh that's cool wired wireless cellular let's go wireless you guys aren't gonna see this part all right so we entered our password now we're gonna get this thing started let's see if it can hook up to the internet we're in business it says successful if you guys can't see at home connection information has been saved we can always change that later on but we are pushed log in as a registered online operator or
