Pinball in MAME cabinet

[Richardgregory]

I'm almost done setting up a hyperspin based cabinet and was wondering whether it's at all worthwhile to install Future Pinball or Visual Pinball on it. It's a horizontal cab with a 21 inch monitor.  If I do it, I will put side buttons on the cab....just not sure how it will look since I've seenost installs on large LCDs in vertical positions.

I was going back and forth myself on this one, mostly because I have an old 4:3 TV in there.

But I've played and quite enjoyed Pinball Arcade on my Vita and PS3 on what's basically a widescreen horizontal TV.  I'm sure vertical would be better but it is still fun.

Future Pinball or Virtual Pinball would suck on an old 4:3 tv.  480i is way too low of a resolution for pinball games.  Pinball arcade IS awesome.  i agree.  I just played it on the PS4 and it looks incredible.

I love visual pinball ..it is an interesting and exciting addition..but I've only played on LED monitors and TVs.  Side buttons are a must for the authentic feel

And that's why I currently haven't drilled the holes for the buttons yet.  Figured it wouldn't be good on that TV.

I had both installed on my cab for a while, but found I really never played them.  The screen was a bit too small for me (I use a 19").  The side buttons do come in handy with my modular panel though as left and right for moving around menus.  So something good came out of it.

Works fine with my cabinet.  I made a video of it a LONG time ago, here it is:
