Better late than never here’s a video about AtGames 4K virtual pinball table. After a mammoth shoot and a bum-numbing, multi-day and night editing job, I think this one is just about ready to share with you, so here’s a link:

https://youtu.be/Aqo3kug8pPg

This video was almost all shot on a DJI Pocket 3 due to its 4K60 abilities - something my usual cameras can’t match. Since the pinball table displays at 60 FPS it only seemed right to try and show it accurately.

I’ve noticed a few minor technical issues but overall I think the camera did a decent job. Its wide angle lens and lack of overheating were additional benefits.

All I have to do now is figure out how to arrange to get this coffin-sized lump taken out of my garage, but first I’m going to take a day off because I’m currently seeing pinball whenever I close my eyes.

Have a good week and take care.

UPDATED: Tweaked some volume levels, added new explanatory overlays in a few places, adjusted a couple of crops and edit points…but most importantly, I’ve added in the plastic film peeling music following a public outcry, street riots and a strongly worded letter writing campaign. This updated video is the one now embedded and linked to above.

Seems odd to have a bunch of cables rather than providing a single ribbon cable to join the top

Here's hoping Liberty Games did not require you to disassemble it, after all - and that you have your garage back.

I’m waiting on them to contact me about the collection - I’ve managed to shove it in the back corner. I can’t use the back door but I can get the car in, so I can hang on. Looks like making the video wasn’t the wisest idea though. Poorly received and with a view count unlikely to earn back enough to pay legal minimum hourly wage for the time I spent on it. Never mind, you never know till you try.

Just noticed the thumbnail for this video isn't aggregating on Patreon. Odd. https://ibb.co/m6V23mX

I've redone the link - hopefully that fixes it. It was still showing at my end, but I suppose it depended on the browser and whether it was desktop or mobile.

Ha ha Mat.. do you really think the average pinball wizard could be bothered with all those little screws and JST connectors when assembling their machine. Nooooo.. what you have there is the limited "Techmoan" edition - screws in place of magnets holding the covers on and a cluster of wires in place of the single ethernet cable connecting the units. Provides that authentic experience of assembling a 1980s tape recorder. I even learned a new technical phrase - flipper-lag - I wonder how many times I can slip that into conversation with the missus this weekend..
