    Here's the long-promised first episode on how to build your own state-of-the-art virtual pinball game. In this ep, I build the main cabinet out of wood from Lowe's.

    JDV this is even better than your non-4k build a few yeas ago. Very detailed step by step directions with all the measurements and tools used. A masterpiece course in building your own cabinet. Can't wait for further journeys into this Series 😎😎

      Hey Hollywood, it's been a minute! Good to see you again - and thanks for the kind words! Making how-to videos is still a challenge for me (esp in a build like this, where I'm making it up as I go along), so I'm pleased to hear that you think I'm getting better at it!

      Hey Carl, what's up? I have to admit, I don't play my ALP too much since I finished up my 4K table. But I still like those Gottlieb tables a lot on the ALP... Hoping to get a review unit for the 4K version.

    I like the laid back approach you have to this build. It does not have to be perfect - the graphics will cover it up!! I am building a cabinet myself right now and I am a perfection nut and I drive myself crazy sometimes with all the details..😜

    • @evilgeniusentertainment

      Hey Tom, thanks for checking out the video! The way I figure it, it's an arcade machine. And arcade machines are only ever mint for one day - then they get beat on, kicked, spilled on, pushed/shoved, and otherwise abused. And these machines only ever get played on at night at my house, so some evils are covered by darkness too! Everyone's who's seen/played it seems to love it, so that's good enough for me. Good luck with your build!

    Can you create a PLAYLIST that contains just your (growing) list of videos related to Virtual Pinball? Or perhaps a Playlist that contains videos related to all things Pinball (Virtual & Real)?

      What's crazy is that even though there's a "real" pinball game in the shack, we almost always end up on the new vpin. It's a carnival in a box.

    Hello Sir! Is the TV playfield at 0 degrees or does it have a slight slope? Thanks and nice work!

    • @evilgeniusentertainment
      @evilgeniusentertainment  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Well thanks! It does have a slope, something like 15 degrees. I may actually rise it up a couple of more degrees, but only a couple. Just uploaded the newest vpin build video BTW!

    Great video, and not to difficult explanations. One comment: please give measurements in cm/meters also. That way the other 95% of the world can enjoy the building of a pinball machine.
