What was so crazy is that all those machines in the Free Play area were owned by one guy...the guy that started Pinfest. I played the Fireball pinball for about an hour...which was one of my favorite pinballs from the early eighties.
I own a new polycade sente and I love it... I'm a vintage game lover though and appreciate being able to play old school games with my seven year old. To be fair, he's loved the pinball on the polycade so now i'm looking to dive into getting a virtual pinball machine for us as well.
I saw you guys walking around expo and it looked like you were in the zone. I'm with you, Jaws premium is my number 1 priority but my wife absolutely loved X-Men and said we should get it. I think X-Men pro is fantastic value. Shocked how much fun we had on Elton John as well.
I appreciated your thoughts on Polycade, so is American Pinball the owners of polycade now? How is the polycade better than an ALU? The asteroids cabinet is beautiful but abit expensive. Glad to see turner, turn the corner. Surprised the coming sub 1k real pinball machine didnt get any coverage hope they ship those to Canada
Hi Carl! I'm not really sure seems like maybe they are just helping with distribution. I did a whole video on the Wonderland guys, not really much more to say on them at this time.
I’m just dying for more companies to make awesome digital pinball cabinets for reasonable prices like AtGames. We need competition in the “zero-compromise and sold at real stores” side of the market. As competitive as the prices from AtGames are, the clearance prices of the original model made it clear that there is tons of space for the price to drop before it cuts into profits. The market for digital cabinets is so much larger than anyone realizes. It’s only the high cost of entry that is stopping everyone in the country from putting cabinets into their house. Every kid wants to be a game streamer. A few arcade units and a pinball in the background of the desk where they have the mic and camera they never actually use for streaming would work great to deepen their TH-camr fantasy.
Hi Everybody, Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoyed my coverage from the 2024 Pinball Expo and let me know what you think was good or bad?

The freeplay zone was amazing. I could imagin having that king of collection. I had to be dragged away from Elvira and the Party Monsters
