The locked area below the coin door of Ice Cold Beer contains the light produced from Marsellus Wallace's briefcase.
Look forward to your vids great way to wind down after a tuff week I hope you never stop making them.
Looks great John!
Thanks for the video. Congrats on 20k!
Really cool and inspirational video John. I, Robot is looking fantastic. Great restoration.
Great job John! Really enjoyed this one. learning a little about Photoshop. The results look awesome and it wasn't really that hard . I appreciate the time you took to explain how it's done. That's what I like about your channel. If you are working on something, no matter what it is, you share it with us real time. That's the difference and don't ever change that aspect of your channel. Thanks again and keep up the videos. See ya next time...
Thanks for the upload John and congrats on 20k subs
I love the game room, and your desktop background is awesome!
That turned out awesome!
Great video John! Really liked your quick Photoshop tutorial. Also loved the tip on 3M's 77.
Congrats on the 20K subs too! Keep it up. Love the vids.
This video was an instructive look at a different but important aspect of the hobby. Mr Do's mame artwork page has an I Robot artwork zip file with the instruction sticker already cleaned up, although it is not quite to scale, (13.333 in x 4.390 in) and the red is shown as magenta. Might be another resource to check. Great video John.
Hey John! Thanks a lot for this video, I've learnt a lot!
"Beware, I live!" Maybe one day, you should get a Sinistar for your living room or garage since you might not have enough room in the basement. Sinistar seems like a fun game.
now my week has started!!!!
It looks so nice.
John!
Love it!
Keep the videos coming!
+carl perkins Thanks, Carl!
John, your videos are so awesome. Your personality really shines and you do just such a great job. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much, Brian. Means much!
congratulations on 20k subs John
Love the variety of your videos man! Great stuff!
Thanks! You from Illinois?
+John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech from London England - would love to visit the U.S. some day
Congrats on hitting 20,000 subs! love the video and podcast keep up the awesome work.
Thanks, pal!
awesome tech video
great video
+1 for the Ice Cold Beer coin door video :)
:)
You do great work john! Video was good! And don't stress about the podcast.
+Sergio Meyer Thanks, Sergio!
My dad uses photoshop all the time to work on his photography, interesting seeing someone using it to fix up arcade artwork.
We like you too John!, thank you for the attempt with the metric system :)
Lol. Damn ruler!
Don't get rid of the dart board! Every time you bring it up, you immediately say that you don't want to lose it! You'll regret getting rid of it. :)
my favorite youtuber! cool :)
that's lovely, YES.
hey we like you too john !!, dude you give loads to the arcade community and we learn from you even a photoshop tutorial now :)keep doin what your doin cos it works dude !!
Loved the photoshop section. If you get the chance, definitely make more. Your skill with it is impressive and i've learned 2 new cool moves watching it. :D
Thanks. I want to do Illustrator next.
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech Awesome.
John there is a method i once used to pop open a coin door that was kicked in take a piece of metel wide enough to go throu the lock hole and thick enought as to not flex connnect it to something strong i used 1/2 " chain put bar through hole w/ chain brace feet on to cab and pull "keep in mind of what door may hit as is opens ie . you or other cabs ect disclamer door may bend if its really stuck
nice to see you firmly in your comfort zone. always interesting and inspiring to watch a pro at work. surely google can give you the audio back if you ask, they have muted not deleted the audio. hey btw, can you read my viewer mail about remixing kill screen tracks?
"You gotta be careful, this stuff scratches real easy." *places metal straight edge on top of printed area* :)
Hey John, Just wanted to let you know how much I really appreciate all the time and effort you put into your videos to keep us entertained, and I think I can speak for everyone when I say that. We all appreciate your a family man and got a full time job so time is precious. Just echoing googleboughtmee's comment really, you dont need capture cards these days to record your desktop. You can also include pictures that fans send you save you holding the paper to the camera. I subscribe to many channels on you tube and yours is the one i look forward too like a favourite soap on TV. Love you loads buddy, dont stop doing what you are doing because you will genuinely be missed. I know it must be kinda strange letting people from all over the world into you home once a week and getting comments from people you will probably never meet. You seem like a genuine guy and the sort of person we would all love to hang out with and have a beer. You friends are lucky to have you in their lives. Take care Bro.
Hey you know I'm just poking at yea outside of here right? no harm intended bro.
You want to take 2 weeks off you go right ahead John!
THANK YOU so much for all the effort you put into everything your doing bro, AND I MEAN THAT! I do think it's time for some tube dollars to be put your way again to help keep those batteries charge also!!
For your garbage cans, get any can you like that fits your style and then spray the inside with a hydrophobic spray like NeverWet. May need multiple layers especially at the bottom of the can, but don't breath that stuff in. This makes the cans very easy to clean out and you can have some nice looking garbage cans and not have to worry about them getting ruined by what you throw in them. ;)
Interesting idea!
What's the background music?
In the years gone by, I've had a few occasions to do some clean up jobs. Via M$ Paint. It's almost bringing tears to my eye on seeing the power of the computer operating like it should with this type of software. Easy; like it should.
+jupreindeer I may have nightmares imagining image cleanup in MS paint, heh.
Never let it be said that John never put any blood into his hobby :-}
Hey John if you don't mind fiddling with manual focus mode on your camera you can mostly eliminate the moire patterns (wavy / swirly lines) seen when shooting video of gameplay from these arcade monitors, not a huge deal just something I learned from trial & error over the years.
+73mathesar Good to know! Thanks!
John buy the egg shell Control panel and lay fiberglass behind it to re-inforce it
Gho.&Gob's is an insanely difficult game. I never did beat it. Same with Castlevania 1. Great games but nearly impossible.
hey John you just slipped on the Nintendo project I know what your making now lol can't wait to see it completed
Neato.
Hey John, what ever happened to that trading card Billy Mitchell and Walter Day were going to make for you?
When you resized your image, you should have unchecked the "resample" box. Then, when you changed the width to 15.25", you would have seen the DPI automatically go to 297.574. That's because it was originally scanned in at 300 DPI, and it would have gone back exactly to 300 DPI if not for the cropping that you did (but there's no meaningful difference between 297.574 and 300 DPI anyway). When you uncheck the "resample" box, you can change the print size / DPI (those two become tied together like a seesaw when you're not resampling) without altering the image in any way, because the only thing you're doing is changing the instructions that your output device (printer) will follow.
The main reason that resampling exists is for images intended to be strictly displayed on computer screens, such as web images. That's because everyone's standard screen DPI (PPI actually) is the same (72), so the only way you can make it bigger relative to people's screens is to resample it, which inevitably results in loss. When resizing for printing, always disable resampling, because it is entirely unnecessary and it does nothing but introduce loss. Also keep in mind that there's nothing magical about 300 DPI, so you can type in the exact size you want without worrying about having it be exactly 300 DPI. You want about 300 DPI as a minimum, but e.g., 328.867 DPI or whatever is just as good (slightly better actually), or 297.574 is close enough.
using the spot healing brush/healing brush tool would probably be easier and faster than the marquee select/content fill method - although it does a good job in the patterned areas
+Sleez Burger The way I did it worked perfect.
hey john I been making a arcade bezel prototype out of cardboard and I am spray painting it black.
+David Whited Yeah, that will work!
Great vid John. To record the screen directly you can use software like Camtasia, you don't need a capture card. But I don't mind the camera pointed at the monitor, it's fine.
Hello, John! I'm brazilian and I really like your videos! Congrats!
Tomorrow I'm flying to San Diego and I would like to buy some arcade stuffs, like SANWA joy and coin door.
I searched it on internet but didn't found any store. Do you know where I can buy it? I could also go to LA...
+Rafael Lima Vintage Arcade Superstore in LA they have everything :)
Put the dart board on a portable stand so you can bring it out for your parties.
I can't beleave the 20,000 subscriber news (just wait til we get 30,000 or 100,000 subscribers) and I helped!
Heeeya Johny Always enjoy your vids ! where is the Sunday Vid ? U slacked some once again i think, hope this is not the Main sunday Vid since is almost middle of the week, if it is,hope u will release another one inside this week,if not plz do it next week i know u got a lot of material there :)
+Realmasterorder This is my "Sunday" video. I'll try to do another before this coming Sunday.
Thnx :)
The not-so-bright folks over Staples 😆.
Awesome vid John! I'd say do one more Photoshop video for that damn table! Your arcade table to which we all see, should be representative of your show, not the stupid patriots!
+assblastic That might be happening. :)
looks like deleting stars
Is that coin door on Ice Cold Beer spray painted shut? Arg! D:
No, I think it was seriously kicked.
Ahh... I've unstuck some seriously stuck things by using some WD40. Maybe some around the edges would help loosen it up.
we need arcade outsiders
Hey John Im 11 and I was wondering if you could do GAMEPLAY VIDEOS. I enjoy watching your tech videos but LOOOVE your game play videos so if you could reply that would be great to know if you will. Could you also play Dragons Layer (amazing laser disk) and 720.Thanks
Yes. I can do this!
+John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech Thanks alot
Why would some one thumbs down this video?
+Sleez Burger I knew what I could get away with. And, I did. What I did worked fine and there is nothing about my print out that looks low-res. My upscaling is undetectable and really trivial. Lowering the DPI would have been the same net result. I also said scaling up images is a big no-no - I agree. However, I didn't scale a one inch image to 12 inches. I only scaled it up about 0.1". No big deal. You can usually get away with a little, and I did, and I knew I would. I have a ton of real world experience going to print (offset) and for almost 20 years. At the end of the day, the proof is in the pudding. And, my pudding is good.
+John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech John you seemed happy with it that is all that matters. You got the same result . You getting a thumbs down for it ,to me, is some one just looking for something to complain about.
grbadge cans
can't you just sell you're dart bord to the nabers?
Spell check brother
Sleez Burger Your dumbass that mispells Board and neighbors wants punctuation? LOL
sorry man
Sleez Burger Unlike you just did is a double negative LOL. You are a moron.
Sleez Burger You didn't? NEIGHBORS? BOARDS?
Really cool and inspirational video John. I, Robot is looking fantastic. Great restoration.
