Very cool. While some will come in and say that you can't duplicate the real feel of a pinball machine, I do think that the VP cabs are pretty sweet. I actually have some stuff read to go to build my own, but I need to get the PC together. I've got my monitors and plan. I've just been waiting on a good computer deal.

I am confident that I could pull off the physical build-- but for whatever reason  I just can't get the software off the ground.

Nice job!  :cheers:
Seriously. Will it fit in my basement or what?

What issues are you having software wise?

Hey - I am in the process of getting my basic stuff together as well! :applaud:

I am struggling with what computer/ components I need to get.  Definitely open on what to get  and cost.....

I got roms etc on disks for both vp and fp ready to install.

I bot lcds from geeks.com for 2 of my arcade cabinets but about ready to use those for a virtual pin.


I keep looking at various layouts - not sure if I want to try and build a cabinet or get a donor....
