Making a Pinball Game - walkthrough
« on: June 28, 2007, 07:17:16 am »
Not an arcade cabinet, but I thought this was interesting enough to share.  MAKE magazine's blog posted this link to a walkthrough showing the entire process of design and building and testing the MONOPOLY pinball machine.  It's a great read (takes a while, so don't plan on going anywhere) and it'd be great to see some articles with this level of detail on original arcade machines... but I doubt they exist.

You might want to check out GameRoom Magazine. You won't see the same level of detail (after all, the Monopoly presentation was done by Pat Lawlor), but there is loads of GameRoom goodness.
