AtGames Legends Pinball Micro Review! The miniaturized version of the excellent AtGames Pinball is here and just how much of the original ALP was maintained while shrinking it down to this micro size? We review the features, the games and overall pinball experience and see if this is a suitable virtual pinball option for those who may not have the space for the full sized ALP.

Welcome to my channel. I have been playing and collecting games since 1987 and I use this channel to share my passion and memories of gaming. I review games that I believe are under appreciated or wrongfully dismissed on Game Genie Reviews. Video Game Nostalgia is a fun series where I take a look at a topic from my gaming past and share games that come to mind from it. I also do Top 10 lists, of course I do...what else is on youtube right? Well I like to think I put my own spin on them because they are based on my life in gaming. Hope you enjoy the channel and always looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Everyone! Thank you so much for watching and don't forget to tell me what you think of the video and the AtGames Legends Pinball Micro
i got one but im leaving in the box until christmas
Great video! I own an ALP but I really want one of these. It would fit in well with my countercades and Partycades.
Good review interesting product, also I’ll be submitting my LCD video later today
Thanks for the review. I'll be holding off as ATGames improves the build and adds things mentioned here and elsewhere. Love the form factor.
Can’t get it in Canada yet. SMH. I miss the states. Lol. I subscribed. I don’t know how I missed your channel. I love pinball and tech. This is right up my alley.
Great review! Thanks Mike!
thanks for video! I love your review on this item. I wish there is some kind of rumble support but I guess I have to modify it.
Helpful review for newbie . Don’t have a lot of room. Ordered one.
This would be kinda cool if you had it sitting at the end of your home bar for people to play.
We need to get an updated game room tour Mike! Also i think you have a few reviews to still get to...right?
Great review! Do the haptics work with the FX3?
Was waiting for this ❤
Cool, I'll consider buying one 🤟
Thanks for the review. I own a Legends pinball but would still like to pick this up at some point for some bartop pinball action. But for anyone with limited space this is definitely a great option to consider.
Nice Review Mike! Wish they would have included VIBS support already for the price. I might get one if it drops in the $200 but not really sure who the market for this machine is. Seems most people that got it have the big ALP too.
Hope you hold Arcade1up to such standards, 200 bucks??? Maybe at Sams marketed down, they will never sell it that cheap from the direct site, you know that though!
@Carl O that's just my line I'd consider picking one up since I have the ALP
Michael B.
Great review! I think this is a good first jump into this smaller design. The machine itself is BEAUTIFUL and hopefully a Gen 2 (if it happens) can bring the plunger, pre-installed VIBS technology, and as ZZ Top said... LEGS :)

If you're going to do all that, just get the Legends full-sized game.
@@danidavis7912
I guess I should've prefaced that I do have the full sized AtGames Legends Pinball :) It was just too big to fit into my main arcade with my desired arrangement. The micro would fit though :)
vgv
@@videogamevegasYeOldeAccount Seems like the A1Up pinballs would be perfect for that if they just had more games.
@@danidavis7912
Yeah, I currently have Arcade1up's Attack From Mars in my main arcade, and really, because it fits.
I loved that Arcade1up snagged a deal with Zen Studios, but INCREDIBLY DISAPPOINTED they decided not to use Zen's purchase model. This should've been a no brainer, get the pinball skin you want (which will initially come with 10 games to fit the theme) and then allow people to expand their VPin by allowing them to purchase additional tables.
I really don't care about the excuses some have thrown out there about Arcade1up's business model. Doesn't mean they can't have more than one. I just think they made the wrong choice when it came to their first attempts at a VPin product. And I hope someday they learn from this mistake and revisit the product line and give us an AtGames-like table addon experience. Not holding my breath, though :)
vgv
Thank you VGV! Yeah i absolutely would have preferred they included a plunger and a vibs board especially at that price point
i just ordered this today i was supposed to get a discount cause i did the pre order on there sale day but i still had to pay full price kinda sucks but o well..cant wait to get it
I'm only to lack of a light up marquee, and I think I'm sold strictly on that. A new pinball arcade in my town I swear has all the back lit maxed out and angled in such away where you can barely see the play field.
I must say, I wasn’t expecting much but this looks great! I just may have to order one. I wonder if I can load my Pinball Arcade collection as I do have ALL the tables, including g all the great ones that they lost the licenses to!
Through otg and my Pc I’ve got pinball fx/3 both running great. You can all the Williams tables through them.
If you hook up a PC or laptop and have the cabinet mode you should be able to
2 small for me (TWSS) I like my ALP too much to go smaller. I would have probably gone for a more regulation size version though. Great video though Mike.
Thank you! Yeah I don't see any point in downn sizing but a great option for people who don't have room for the full table
I would like to get one of these just so that I can modify and create my own pinball machine by in a vertical stance. I have no idea if that would even be possible with this or not.
Great review! Looks pretty decent, I'll have to see what the options are for getting here in the land down under. I haven't seen the original full size one here as yet (although I haven't checked for a while).
Does this not have HDMI out? I noticed you were using video camera whole video.
I'm definitely interested in this machine, but like you said...God only knows what it will cost if it ever makes its way to Canada. Nothing on the Brick's site about it yet.
How do you connect a USB cable for the controls with a PC? Do you use an A to A cable?
They really could've gone with a 17" playfield monitor. Playing on this would be like trying to play pinball with BBs. LOL Still, it might be a cool corner piece. I actually have a set of legs I could put on that. Was going to put them on my Toyshock pinball, but the bolt holes were not compatible. Thanks for sharing this.
I prefer my full sized Legends but then I have the space for it too. I wouldn't hesitate to get the Micro if I lived in an apartment. But since I live alone in a 1900 square foot house, it's the full sized game all the way.
That's exactly the point, if you can go big go big but if space is limited this is a cool option
@@MichaelBtheGameGenie Agreed!
Hi. Discovered the problem with the micro D pad in a forum "As far as the D pad, I did have that issue. I took it apart and realize the white  membrane on the inside was upside down. I flipped it over and put it back together and it works great now".
Hi Michael B hope you are feeling bettet my friend 😉🤞🙏👊
Does somebody make cabinet graphics/decals for the Micro..?
Heavily considering this since I can't fit the full size. I wonder if a plunger can be added easily?
I don’t think there’s room internally I’ve had mine open
Now that is the million dollar question
I’m interested in getting one and I’m glad to have run into your video. After five months what’s your overall experience, positive or negative?
Really positive but it doesn't get as much playtime from me as i also have the bigger ALp which i use primarily but this works just as well in a smaller form factor
@@MichaelBtheGameGenie
Thanks
Can you connect a switch or a PS4 to the hdmi and play 😮 with the buttons?
You can buy a plunger for the micro pinball separately...i believe $80
Could you add more tables to this ?
what are the system specs? What kind of machine is rolling inside? What OS? What frontend?
Nice review thank you. Just ordered this in the UK at just under £500 so count yourself lucky in the US! I’ve owned 5 full size pinball machines over the years but sadly when we downsized in retirement we no longer had room. (Having owned Star Trek TNG, Addams Family full size) I really wish these were available in the Micro but unless someone knows otherwise I can’t find them. Anyway, this little machine should help me get over withdrawal from losing my full size Pinballs. It arrives this week so can’t wait to play. If anyone knows how to get Addams family on the Micro I’d love to hear from them. 👍
Is it good?
@@Nunos645cgh yes it’s very good although I do have an eye on the newly announced 4K pinball machine. Just need to find room and convince the wife.
Being from Canada where did you buy your micro from?
Mine was a review unit from AtGames but they should be available in Canada from The Brick
Not a pinball guy, but I enjoyed the review 😁
I don’t know I had this feature on my Nintendo switch so I got a rotating mount for my TV. No I’m playing pinball on the wall.
Don't hold your breath for an arcade panel upgrade. I opened up my Micro Pinball to see if that might be an option, and I was disappointed. Unlike its big brother, the D-pad in the Micro is not in a separate panel, but integrated into the frame that holds the playfield monitor. Also, there's no extra wiring to accommodate the additional functionality of a joystick and extra buttons.
On a side note, it's also disappointing that the "plunger button" just replicates the D-pad down button. Not a whole lot of buttons to use for OTG mode.
The Micro is better than expected. I love my ALP, if Atgames could make a 43" 4k Fullsized playfield. 24" backglass Pin for well under 2k I would be all over that.
Maybe that's the next step some kind of premium version
I wouldn’t mind if screen is same size (32 inch) but with 2k playfield with higher refresh rate for premium option. I imagine it would have to have better cpu performance
As would I! I would probably have to move my ALP to the pool room and kick it out of my arcade, if they did that.
any idea where to get one in canada ??
Sadly no clue yet, you may want to contact Buy Stuff Store in Ontario, it may be the only option
@@MichaelBtheGameGenie they told me they should get some but dont know when :(
Great review! I been really happy with mine after the initial firmware issues were resolved. The OTG capabilities have really been fun to explore. Have pinball FX/3 both running great.
i just did the 50 dollars pre order yesterday how long did the whole process take u and them charge u the rest to ship it out?
@@TheCleveland1987 I preordered the first day you could. Back in early September. Got link to pay for balance October 20, paid and it arrived 8 days later. I’m very close to their shipping center in CA so it only took 2 days of travel
@@millertv79 thanks for answering that. So I guess I could be waiting up to a month this should be fun lol
Hey MichaelB- Thank you again for another awesome show. This machine is a no go for me. The price is equal to an Arcade1up cab. I miss my full size pinball, but this is something for an office or a kids room. IMO, this would look silly in a home arcade. Cheers! Glad you are on the mend!
On another note… I watch your videos and always stare at Burger Time! Best cab from Arcade1up! Would love them to bring this back.
Exactly - it’s perfect for my office. It’s not in my arcade.
Your accent had me thinking you were from Rochester, NY, but I checked your About and it seems like I was way off.
I am from Rochester, Ny.
@@John-pm2dh Haha, nice!
Cute little fella! Not You, Mikey B 😉
I wish I never bought anything from ATgames. I got the legends pinball micro and received it damaged. Screen has discolored spot. Contacted “customer support” and they want me to pay $50 return shipping for damage not my fault. Shipper won’t help because box wasn’t damaged. Plus I didn’t know they go on sale and already overpaid $100. Most miserable customer service experience in years.
11:11 on 11/11 - 🤔
i had $50 Credit card points so its only costing me $289
I have no interest, but it sure is cute.
first
Thank you!
To bad AtGames has terrible customer service otherwise it would be a buy.
Sorry you have had a bad experience
seems too small.
Hence the name “micro”
Such a weird size, it's too big to be tabletop and too small to be stand alone, oh and still overpriced
You honestly have no idea how lucky you are with availability and price on 1up and AtGames compared to the UK 🥲😂
