It took in the time from me reading that post and logging in for someone to mention Le Chucks build. ;D
Maximus- My old man built one of these rooms in our basement growing up. I would have to agree that he was never completely done adding. He wasnt even done when we moved 20 years later. I will say this. Dont be afraid to plan and just dont jump right in. And it seems that the thing that got the most use you forgot to mention.....Da Foosball!

Well there's the best endorsement for Pachinko right there
paigeoliver:
i would consider not putting the home theater in there. Soon as the wife starts watching something then everything else will have to be quiet so she can hear it. Better to just have the nice TV stuff in the living room otherwise you can easily find your every party will get hijacked by the TV as well. I would avoid the karaoke for the same reason.
If you get a pachinko machine make sure you either get one with a volume control or mod it for a volume control, Japanese "skill" games are notorious for incredibly loud volume levels during the bonus games. Also, kids like to carry off the pachinko balls.
You can get a multiple Gottlieb pins and a couple skee ball lanes as well for the price of a TZ or TAF pin. However it is hard to find a good deal on a skee ball lane that hasn't been beaten into submission on a daily basis since the late 70s. Went to one amusement center closing auction and they had at least 50 lanes in decent shape and averaged about $1000 per lane. The Tilt near me has some really thrashed looking shorty lanes at $500 each at the moment, which is the cheapest I have ever seen.
