What's your opinion? If the adds are legit should I buy one of them? First one is 2,249 €, second one is 2,400 € Odds are you'll wind up with a better product than the China Alibaba cabinet at the price point ($500-600), plus it'll be 100% legal.Įdited by LynnInDenver, 22 October 2020 - 09:19 PM.Ĭhecked the internet for used vpins and found 2 adds that seem really interesting for the price and don't look like the Chinese machines you find on Alibaba. Note: If you're just looking to get in and play some pinball, my recommendation is to develop some patience, and buy either the AtGames Pinball Ultimate coming out (running Pinball Arcade) or one of the Arcade1Up pinballs (running FX3) when they come out. The only outfits that can manage that are places like Arcade1Up and AtGames, who have economies of scale working for them to enable profit margins at the prices they sell that stuff at. I can guarantee you if someone's selling a pincab for $1,000, then it's not going to last at all. And that's just material, it doesn't count time. The cheapest I've seen someone in the community build a cabinet for is $500. At worst you'll get people trying to show you the door and implying that if you need support, you should just pester the Lazy Commercial Pincab Seller to provide that support instead of those who's work they unethically used to sell their warez. At best, you'll get some help with the idea of just nuking the install and installing all the software from scratch. Which can include running some sort of cheap Android box with a pirated copy of FX3 and Pinball Arcade to make it look like a steal when in reality you'd have at best a starter cabinet with no toys at all.Īnd that's before you get into the whole community support that's already been covered. The lower the price, the more likely it is that any and all corners are cut to turn a profit. Substandard parts, potentially a PC with barely enough oomph to run a table from the 10.0 days, to say nothing of even an optimized table released in the past year, poor mounting of equipment allowing it to bang around inside the cabinet and break other things, poor wiring management if not an actual fire hazard, cabinet made out of something other than good cabinet grade plywood, and you're compounding it by ordering it from outside the country so that you have about ten times the hoops to jump through to get a refund if you got a piece of garbage that isn't even worth reworking into a good setup. The risks of buying a Chinese machine are the same exact risks as buying any other Lazy Pincab Seller virtual pinball machine. As such, most people tend to back the software developers since they are the ones that make this hobby possible and won't help people out with fixing software or other issues with these kinds of pinball machines. Them selling cabinets with the software loaded goes against the software usage agreements set forth by the developers of the software and tables. One final thought though, is that if you buy one of the "all inclusive" pinball machines with software included and loaded, you will find that you will get very little help from most people in the community. I've never bought a cabinet from VirtuaPin, but have heard great things about the build quality for example, so Noah is justified in his comments. I'm sure that others have done it, but I just don't recall seeing any information that would help you on the quality front. That being said, I know of nobody that has bought one of those Chinese ones and reported on their experience. There are some people having serious issues with some cabinets from Australia (not naming names since this isn't the place for it), and those are nicer looking, more expensive, and *claim* to have more features than the Chinese ones. you may need to change these constants to your hardware and needs.Buy one and report back what your experience is. #define ProjectName "Score counter for pinball machine" ATTENTION: This Sketch contains elements of C++.
