No mini arcade is complete without a pinball machine.
I’m trying, sora, to put a wrap on the mini arcade. There were two things I knew I definitely needed - a pinball machine and a very specific classic cabinet. I also feel like I need a proper light gun game but I haven’t been quite willing to pull the trigger on a House of the Dead that lights up and comes all the way from Turkiye. Plus I’d kind of prefer House of the Dead 2.

Anyway, I went with Pinbot, because as fond as I am of pinball machines based on IP like the Next Generation one or the Addams Family one, pinball should be unique to pinball and, for marketing reasons, there aren’t a lot of mini ones out there from my usual guy. So Pin-Bot it was. A classic. 

The machine as is doesn’t’ have top-glass or back-glass, they’re just indented. So Cathy cut out some thin acrylic sheeting to fit. It’s removable if I want to photograph it without the glare, but I like the way it looks.

And of course we pair it with my newest robot.
