    (SOLD) -Xbox One (New in Box)

    So I ended up with a second Xbox One a couple weeks ago, and I don't really need two of them, so if anyone has been thinking about getting one, I'm selling it for $450. Box still sealed-comes with console, kinect, and one controller. Sold-thanks!

    KISS pinball by Zidware!

    Looks nice, but aren't there other games that should get finished first? Not sure how production on MG or RAZA is going or how it's going to work, but it seems a little strange to be working on a side project like this when you have people who have paid a whole lot of money to get a game that...

    I bought a house!! (Building a game room)

    That looks great-lots of room to expand too. Looks like you could at least double your lineup!

    [FOUND]: WTB IM or SM

    Re: WTB IM or SM Technically, yes. There's some stuff you could cast as "generic" for the characters, and it wouldn't fit 100%, but it could be done. Not sure if they'd have to change all the animations/callouts as well, but even if they did, you're talking an art pass, a dots pass, and a...

    [FOUND]: WTB IM or SM

    Re: WTB IM or SM Could they maybe re-run with a new art package? If they kept the same playfield and code, but just updated the artwork with new assets from marvel, it could be awesome. The only thing wrong with the game is that it's based on those movies-follow up on X-Men and put in some...

    MMR setup at Texas Pinball Festival (gameplay video too)

    I thought about getting one, but I'm already on the hook for a Hobbit LE later this year (or early next) so I'll pass on MMR for now. Still, glad to see it's coming together, and if the driver board under the PF like that works after being played all weekend, all the better. Did they figure...

    LOTR Balrog moves when it shouldn't

    Very interested in what the solution to this ends up being-hopefully it's something you can trace down. Moving the socketed chips didn't make a difference, but did you try the entire board (or are there differences between the two games)?

    I bought a house!! (Building a game room)

    That purple is going to cover in 3 coats? I've never done a purple like that, but I did do a room in a strong red before. Took 5 coats to cover...never doing that again (at least not without a tinted primer). Of course, that's the beauty of paying someone else to do it for you-it's their...

    FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

    Saw that getaway this morning and it's already gone. Either someone sniped it (great price) or the seller decided it was worth more.

    best way to polish metal?

    I've just used some stuff that I got from Marco a while back (NevrDull), and it's pretty good for doing rails and ball guides. Not as good as what you'll get with a buffer, but at least better than doing nothing to them at all.

    Pinballnews.com - Pinball Profiles

    Did Jonathan ever make Pinball Magazine available digitally? I wanted to get a copy, but they sold out of the first issue, and it doesn't sound like they're printing any more.

    The Pinball Diaries (what did you do today?)

    Of course more is going to come up on that game-it's a STTNG :) Has it had the tieback voltage mod done on it?

    The Pinball Diaries (what did you do today?)

    Changed the batteries in all my pins, and noticed that the ones in LOTR had never been changed (still zip tied down). Also managed to do it without losing any settings this time-I know last year I had a problem with the crummy battery holders on WPC boards and managed to lose all my TZ high...

    ColorDMD - Announces TOTAN as next title

    These just keep looking better and better as they get the hang of the process.

    Metallica Pinball, Choose 2 Songs for upcoming code update

    Re: Metallica Pinball, Choose 2 Songs for upcoming code upda Given sparky on the playfield, it's really weird that Ride the Lightning wasn't in there to start with.

    It's good for the hobby!

    I've actually got my 5 year old playing CV pretty often now, except she refuses to listen when I try to teach her how to actually play. Still, it's a start. Calvin is 2, and gets pissed off if you try to help him. He still likes the start button best (it's blinking after all). He also...

    Anyone here built an HTPC recently?

    I'm looking at putting together a new HTPC, and wondering if anyone has any component suggestions. I've built a whole bunch of PCs over the years, but I've never tried to optimize for noise (mostly just for power/price). This time though, I'm building something that will likely be on all the...

    Congrats-nothing quite like getting the keys to the first house you own. Now on to the renovations!

    Pissed off about Shipping Costs

    It sucks, but there's not much you can do if you still want to order from those places. Only way I've found to mitigate it is to wait until I need a bunch of stuff to put in an order, and then ask around for others to split shipping with.

    Vid Noob v. Marvel Vs Capcom & Killer Instinct

    Re: Vid Noob v. Marvel Vs Capcom For the price and space, I'd just build or source a decent MAME. Most of the fighting games on there work really well, and then you can design the panels to be exactly what you want. Other plus is that if you build your own, you can make it modular so it's...
