Wow, congrats on the 100th video!! All great tables you have listed. My favorite on this list is Jaws....SHOCKED this isnt a real table. I heard somebody might be developing one (not sure who, but they bought some kind of liscens) .
Here is to the next 100!
Cheers brother 🥃!
You're one of my best members here, Nick! Appreciate you Bro!!
Hope to see you around for the next hundred!
Do you have a video how to get these tables and how to get them on your atlegends pinball machine? I have an atgames pinball machine and want to play all these amazing pinball games but have really no idea at all what I'm doing. I do have a desktop pc that's still relatively decent.
@@avaforlife4141 I don't myself, but there are several great online tutorials about it. Here's a few:
TampaTec: th-cam.com/video/8fWlduWM6Ag/w-d-xo.html
CoolToy: th-cam.com/video/s0BF_YGz7pc/w-d-xo.html
MadDad: th-cam.com/video/4FExJQtRwpE/w-d-xo.html
It will take some dedication and commitment. Take your time, it's well worth it!
My number one is Creature from the Black Lagoon. So fun.
I'm a bit late but 100 is a huge milestone! congrats! and who doesn't love a top 10? 🐾
Thanks so much!!!
Man, that seems like a long time ago, I have more than 300 videos now. If you haven't subbed, please do!
Top Man Ed...100 Wow!!!! Keep going strong.😎..I look forward when waking up to a new episode each day you post. Respect always from across the pond.
WoW 😲Congrats on episode 100.Definitly an intresting list to discover other tables as well.I myself like some other tables to.Like “Attack from Mars”/“Bad CAT’s”/“”no good golfers”/“Indiana Jones” all worth to play if you discovering Pinball for the first time.Back to creating my own first Vpx Pinball tables...(Got some music,sound effects and artwork so far)Have a Nice day Bro
Great video. Thanks for posting!!
Thank you Markus! I appreciate you hangin' out. I have a bunch of tutorial and other showcase vids, please Sub and stay a while! 🙂
I subscribed a few days ago. I don't have my machine yet but the excitement is ramping up!
@@markushughes2460 Hell yeah!
I always have issues getting Future Pinball to work with PinUp Popper. Great list.
Every now and then I just run tables directly from the program (VPX or Future), bypassing Pinball Emporium.
Congratulations! And now you are at 1K!
I'm so thankful to my viewers, and love 'em. But I have to say, I love YOU more than all of 'em!
Hey DV, congrats on your 100th video!! So many great tables, lets get working on video's 101 and 102 for World Cup Soccer and POTC! 🙂
Congratulations on 100!!!
Thanks for stopping by Travis, good to see you my man!

Strong selections! I'm not sure I've played all of those, I will make it a point to work my way through.
Thanks Iron Man!
Going to comment as I watch this awesome 100th episode!
Star Wars: I need to get that one. Looks sweet!
Monster Bash: one of my top 5 favorites. Awesome table!
Pirates: Another amazing table in my top 5 favorites.
Capt. Fantastic: haven't seen this one before. Will install and give it a whirl.
LOTR: I don't have this one either. Looks great!
Jaws: I've only played the FX3 version of Jaws. Very exciting soundtrack going on here!
T3: Another great looking table I haven't tried. I've played T2 but never T3.
WCS: Looks amazing. Will have to check it out.
MM: Such a great table. I need to get that sound mod. I love Monty Python!
Superman: LOL
Star Wars: I STILL can't get future pinball to work on my machine.
Great list! Definitely will be installing some stuff in the coming days. Thanks!
World Cup Soccer (USA 94) a great table indead, it was in Limbo for quite some time & I was stuck with only the now ugly VP9 version for years but very glad to see that someone finally did a top job on it for VPX sometime in 2022, got it again a few days ago and wow, now it finally looks fantastic too, defo the best football themed Pinball game, even better than CHampions League 2020 and thats a decent one
Very cool to see a list with some tables different than the usual ones. Everyone's lists should be a little different based on personal connections. Trying to come up with just 10 seems so hard!
Hey Eric! Thanks buddy - and it wasn't easy coming up with my Top 10, I'm sure it will look different next year! Maybe I should do one every six months... Hhhmmm.
World Cup Soccer is an awesome pinball in real life, but once you’ve beaten it once (it’s an easier pinball), it becomes “rinse and repeat” which is probably why it’s not as popular amongst longtime collectors.
That's a good point, Wayne!
Thanks for watching, bud!
I agree the soccer table is great and I don't even like soccer much. Just great sound, hype and the design is just next level.
YES! I love how they made shooting goals not crazy difficult. Just tough enough to keep ya tryin!
Appreciate you checking out my videos, man - thanks!
@@digitalvictory8266 No problem, recently got into VPX and are quite hooked trying out tables and really craving a real Vpin now. I will watch more of your videos for sure.
Great list! I'll have to check out Terminator 3. Never played that one.
Hi Richard! Thank you! Glad to have you on-board man!
Congrats and thanks for sharing your list. I’m a stickler for solid physics, so most of the tables you have on there wouldn’t feature on my list for that reason. My list would certainly be VPW mod team and their collaborators heavy 😉
Hi Dan, thanks for watching buddy!
I'd love to learn more about the physics, please educate me! There's a good chance I've already downloaded some of those tables, but haven't given them enough run to appreciate the difference. What are three tables you'd recommend for me to check out the physics on?
@@digitalvictory8266 since about two years or so nfozzy/rothbauerw added flipper and other code that made the flipper tricks and ball bounce etc. much more realistic. The VPW mod team refines and improve on it all the time e.g. they have since improved drop targets and slings. You can immediately notice the difference between a table with the improved code and those without. Lord of the Rings Valinor Edition plays excellent and then two of my favourites are Tales from the Crypt and Blood Machines. I also like UnclePaulies Sorcerer and Bords Space Shuttle to name a few.
@@PinStratsDan Great, thank you Dan
Will give 'em a run!
Do you have a guide for setting these tables up? Just got my ALP machine. Great videos btw
I have not done one, but Wagner's Tech Talk has a great guide for it:
th-cam.com/video/S8i4ttMuzmY/w-d-xo.html&feature=shares
Outstanding content! I am debating buying this at games machine. Is it easy to add these tables if you are not super technical? Do you need a computer hooked up at all times?
Hi Eric! Thanks so much for comin' by!
All the tables I play 90% of the time are all on the PC. They are just running on the monitors of my Legends Pinball (using the buttons).
It is connected with an OTG cables, both HDMI and USB. I talk about it in more detail in my original video review here:
th-cam.com/video/uKyRaZJ9GFY/w-d-xo.html
haha that superman game from Atari at the end..My uncle had the real pin, I would play it every christmas. I wish they made a little better version on vpx though.
LOL You're the first person to comment on that!
Just a little humor I thought I'd add at the end!
Thanks for stoppin' in Soggy Kid!
(funny name)
Do you realize the photo of the vader helmet shown in the thumbnail is the original vader helmet used in most of the scenes in empire strikes back?
??!!! Cool!!
I didn't know that, I just snagged it off the web! LOL
Thanks for watching, Lander!
@@digitalvictory8266 Yeah that was a photo used for its auction photo, it sold for like 900K
I’m looking to get a virtual pinball machine but don’t know where to start and don’t understand what I’m doing. For instances I was going to get that table but don’t understand how you get those boards. Any advice ?
Hey there - first of all, thank so much for hangin' out and checking out some videos. I really appreciate it.
I can't recommend the Virtual Pinball Hobby enough - it's a GREAT hobby and probably one of the most rewarding avenues I've gone gone.
It's NOT for the lazy or faint of heart though, I have to say. If you're interested in virtual pinball, I *really* recommend you take the time to learn about it extensively before spending any money.
That said, the easiest way is to probably get this machine I have, the Legends Pinball, and even if you only play the included games, you're spending only about $600-700, and you get 22 tables. You can also purchase additional table packs from @Games, and build your library to more than 100 tables. Even if that's all you ever do, you can have quite a great time with that.
But the true beauty of it, is the ability to hook it up to your PC, and play OTHER virtual pinball systems THROUGH your Legends pinball. That's what you see me doing most of the time. THAT however, WILL require plenty of time, knowledge and work. But it's SO worth it (in my humble opinion).
I discuss that specifically in my review way back from last year: th-cam.com/video/uKyRaZJ9GFY/w-d-xo.html
Hello, how did you add the 8 bit music for the Star Wars Redux table? Thanks for the idea.
Hey Master AUTO!
I don't know how to add music to tables, but I DO play that music in the background while I play that table. It really makes a big difference, and I love it.
The music is here: th-cam.com/video/bMyFCfklj18/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching the video, man - I hope you Subbed!
Hey just acouple questions. First off are you running these on pinball emporium ? Second, what is the speaker you got there? And how did you hook that speaker up to the legends pinball? I’ve been wanting to add like a speaker or sound bar and not sure how to? If you could explain and say where you got that speaker or a link that would be great man. Thanks
Hey there! Yes, I use Pinball Emporium.
These are the speakers I got off Amazon. They're nothing special, but I like the look.
th-cam.com/channels/O5AmO1NdvVE82gaXXwbt4A.html
I just used two-sided tape to secure them on top of my machine.
Thanks for watching!
@@digitalvictory8266 the link you gave me only took me to your TH-cam page. Can you send the link to Amazon for these? And if you don’t mind how did you hook them up? Did you have to splice into the speaker wires on the legends? Did you have to add an amp? I’m looking for the easiest way . I would love to just add a sound bar. But either way, if you don’t mind explaining how you hooked them up. It would help me and I’m sure lots of other user. Great video man!
@@wishiwasarockstr Oh no!! Dude, I'm sorry, my bad. Here's the Amazon link:
smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08JVBMDY4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And they're just plugged into the PC. I RARELY play the tables that are built into the Legends Pinball, and I just use the built-in speakers for that.
@@digitalvictory8266 cool man thanks for the info. I will definitely look into these. Did you plug those into the computer via usb, or did you plug into those like yellow and green spots where it says speakers. Probably usb is the best bet? I can’t use hdmi because I am using my hdmi port to run to my legends pinball. Oh and I also only use my pc when playing legends pinball. The built in games are just ok. But pinball fx3 via my Pc , and pinball emporium is the way this thing shines! It blows my arcade 1 up pinball out of the water. Hey fyi , I had the pinball emporium build it came with like 130 games. I just ordered a usb stick that gives me 1000 plus pinball games for pinball emporium. If you need the info for that , hit me up. The drive was about $100 bucks.
Does that Captain Fantastic backglass have the guy flipping you off and the crotch grab?
Need to update for 2023!
That's a great idea dude!!! Definitely need to start making my list of current Top 10!
Thanks for watching man!
Sadly it's about impossible to find this atgames pinball except for ebay at 1,ooo US Money. Wish I had jumped in and got one on clearance 2 months ago at Sam's club.
Don't forget offerup or facebook marketplace for local... I see them for around $500 in my area
Is that the original back box without any modding ?
Yes, all the equipment is stock, from the factory.
I WANT to get that nice backbox from buystuff.com, but it's a little rich for my blood at the moment.
Which vPin version are you using to run Mb?
This is an old video, I don't remember what version this was.
Now I run 10.8.
@digitalvictory8266 Does it run on 10.8??
@@JeWCyDuDe I'm sure it does.
I'll give it a test tomorrow and reply here and let you know!
@@digitalvictory8266 it does!! I tested it this morning after I got home.
I’m new here how do you get these on machine, this looks pretty sweet
Hi Billy! Welcome!
Are you asking, "How do I get them on my Legends Pinball Machine?" specifically?
Or just about virtual pinball in general?
@@digitalvictory8266 how do you get them on pinball machine thanks
@@Jpott69 The Legends Pinball machine is from @Games, and comes with 22 built in tables.
The greatest feature of the Legends Pinball Machine, however, is that you can hook it up to a PC, and play other Virtual Pinball systems *through* the Legends Pinball. Basically, just use the Legends Pinball screens, and flippers, but the actually virtual pinball is all being played on the PC.
There are some great videos that show how to hook the Legends Pinball up to your PC.

@@Jpott69 Thank you Billy! Welcome aboard!!! I hope you check out the other 99 videos! LOL
I’m going to grab that Jaws table today, it looks like it blows the FX3 Jaws out of the water. I generally love FX3 but no John Williams music on the table just made it feel like a generic shark theme. I’m also an omnibus collector, something tells me we would get along 🤘🏼
100% agree on the Jaws table! I LOVE this version!
I'm not gonna lie dude, the FX3 version put me to sleep.
And you collect Omnibuses?? Yes! What's your favorites?
@@digitalvictory8266 Wow the answer to that question changes all the time, I have a lot of Omnis, Absolutes, Dlx Hardcovers etc.
Some that I love:
Uncanny X-Force by Rick Remender
Punisher Max Vols 1 and 2 by Garth Ennis
All the Capt. America by Ed Brubaker Omnis
Literally anything by Ed Brubaker, especially his Image stuff
Claremont era X-Men Omnis
Daredevil by Bendis Vols 1 and 2
Batman by Loeb and Sale
Animal Man by Grant Morrison
Superman by Tomasi
Preacher Omnis
Saga Dlx Hardcovers
Invincible Dlx Hardcovers
TMNT Dlx Hardcovers
Honestly I have to stop myself from listing most of the books I own. Omnis and Pinball, two awesome hobbies and look good in a room together.
100 videos & still no mic?? 👀 Bud, I can barely hear ya, and WANT to. AND, yer piping in loud generic butt-rock underneath ya to boot! 😮💨🤷♂️
Thumbs down on the star wars table for me. For me about half of the tables mentioned are meh at best.
Fair enough gmee!
If we all liked the same thing, there'd only be one table. 🙂
Appreciate you coming by though!
HEY! I came across this at excactly 999subs. subscribed for that big 1K 😅 I don't know why but that was delightful for me.
Yes!! Decker - you are the man!!!! Than you buddy!! I hope you check out more vids, there's some fun stuff here.
Please let me know if there's a particular table you'd like featured, I'll be happy to do it! Thanks again!
Hi man, where can i buy these games or do i need to subscribe?
Hi R Jones! No need to subscribe (But I hope you Sub to my YT Channel! 😁 )
I get all my tables from VPUnivers.com; and VPForums.org
You DO have to be registered there.
They're free! But you have to register, and have a PC powerful enough to run them. It's a serious hobby and takes lots of learning/effort, but it's SO worth it!
Enjoy!
