    Whoa, daddy-o! I JUST found ya in my feed, and we’re in identical situations-I, too, just got my first Spike 2 & I’m sniffin around for the best ways to pimp my pin.
    You already sold me on that Kenwood rig (the last place I bought from had lousy CS!), AND I’m all over that sweet plaque-backer gag-a nice subtle touch. 👌
    I’m also a Hardy honk; he’s helped me more than all pin channels combined (& I’ve watched LOADS). Appreciate your earnestness & honesty (just like Cary), and here’s hopin you get more pins to make more vids like this! 😅 🍻 🤘✌️

      ​@@RetroRalphDude holy crap. So here I am revisiting this video again 8 months later and that shit at the end bouncing off the glass, dropping back and hitting the crease of the ramp, and then bouncing the opposit3ndirection into the demigorgans mouth is mesmerizing. Now that you are making more shorts that would be a great one!

    If Ralph can do it anyone can. 😂It's neat to see the things that you have done to mod it. It made me nervous when you took the glass out and that D&D die plunger is so sick. I like the extra mods you did and really makes the machine something special.

  • @therexershow
    @therexershow Рік тому +1

    I hate taking off the glass too even though I know it won’t break . Thanks for the help on the speaker upgrade , foos will be getting it. I also am doing the headphones adapter which I was hoping you would show. Premiums don’t come with shakers in my experience , which I think is a shame.

    • @RetroRalph
      @RetroRalph  Рік тому

      Yeah, You're right, I double-checked after the fact, they don't include the shaker motors on premiums either, I agree with you that they should. The headphone mod always interested me for playing at nighttime, I might consider doing that with Foo Fighters. Thanks for watching. I think when I get the Foo Fighters I'm going to film a "how-to" on the speaker upgrade since it might help others. It's not difficult, but I think it would end up being a good reference video. Anyway, fingers crossed that foo comes in April!

    Pretty sweet mods!! Never knew you could upgrade movie clips from the SD card. Have you found that maintaining pins are more difficult then arcade cabs? I have a friend who has a basement of nothing but pinball machines, he says the upkeep is both expensive and time-consuming yet completely worth it.

      I was going to ask about the gloves. I'm assuming this was to avoid fingerprints on the back side of the HD glass, right Ralph? Any other reasons? They kinda looked like basic dishwashing gloves. Something more 'pro'? :)

    "Now The Thing You Wanna Do Is: You Wanna Get It Up Enough That You Can.....Uhm, Get The Balls Out." 😎 Ha! Great vid Ralph! Never seen anyone mod their pinball machine before. Knowing how expensive they are, the fact that you can still upgrade to better parts never occurred to me. One day I'll own a pin or two too!
