Another example of the benefits of the wait time. When I got my vpin, I was lucky to get the 2.0 version. Now those currently in the queue can get the benefit of upgrading to this beast, which it sounds like many are going that option. Good things come to those that understand the wait, not the keyboard warriors that don't get it... Bravo XGC.
Very true, but I just want to order this dazzling machine they're showing. It's like saying "the great thing about ordering this pizza is they deliver it late so you'll be extra hungry and get to pay for new toppings!" The video mentions a major backlog, yet I see they've only posted 1 video of a customer pinball project completion in the past couple months. Once they've posted more orders, I'll probably join the queue as he says in the video it's going to go down drastically.
@@sabrejedi1392 Note the new software version. Putting two and two together WRT pinball releases. They held up machines on the floor/ready to ship to make sure they got the new system on them. I'd imagine there'll be a bunch of releases over the next couple of weeks.
Absolutely stunning! I couldn't have fathomed any significant improvements on the Premium anymore, but this one just knocks the ball out of the park. Holy crap. Insane work!
@@dave6960 Aren't Jersey Jack's raised above the playfield close to the glass? Last time I played the Godfather they were. Looks much better raised in my opinion.
@@TracyinEurope Playfield level on GF and Elton John, and some others. JJ do, however, have some LED strips that are up toward the glass/on rails, etc. in some of their designs. Everyone has things they prefer. I have an XGC cab with LEDs up near the glass and like it as well...but wouldn't have a problem with them mounted near the screen. Both look great.
Wow. That screen is shockingly better than the LED. The contrast from black to white\colors is so noticeable. I thought it would look better but this is insane.
Is it late to upgrade to platinum when my machine almost done, ???I’ve seen the cab but no screens on it yet, maybe it’s to late ? Looks awesome this platinum model. Just love it. I did order a premium model with titanium package. Will be great anyway, but this platinum would be even better.
If I already have the Titan package and the fan blower on my current Premium order will that be discounted off the price for the upgrade to the Platinum?
@@dave6960 I got a reply back, but unfortunately was told that since my Premium is mostly built I cannot upgrade. I am fine with that though. My Premium will still bring many good times to myself and friends. Can't wait!
@@PowerNGlory It will indeed. I've had mine for around 4 or more years now....had a visit back to the workshop to get some extra goodies (matrix, solenoids, etc. that weren't available when my machine was built) and love it. Endless fun.
@bradporter482 Unfortunately cameras don't capture what the machine is like in person. The LED lighting/reflections, lens flares, etc. are magnified in videos, but your eyes interpret this info very differently. Anyone with an XGC pin with matrix lighting, full DMD etc. will say the same. Cool in videos, but jaw dropping in person.
Good to know the matrix can be turned off. While I appreciate value adding by including features such as the matrix and LED strips along the side of the tables my personal preference is to keep the pinball as pure to the original (real) table as possible.
@@AdamMac27 yes you can turn them off, but you do know that real pinballs have led lights not screens and company’s like jersey jack have addressable LEDs in there pinballs. Also you can purchase a vpin and not have matrix and addressable LEDs on machine. Personally would be a must have for me.
Amazing model as always, it’s really beautiful. But I prefer the slightly smaller matrix, like the premium models. And I also prefer the 43 screen. You should release something like that with the premium dimensions.
An OLED 43 machine, essentially? This "may" be an option but a lot of manufacturers are phasing out 43 inch screens, so it might not be possible. I'm sure that a single matrix could be done in the Platinum...and the dimensions are identical, bar the slightly wider body. This is 30mm, or just over an inch. Length, backbox width, etc. are exactly the same. Height is the same as the Premium, but can differ slightly due to topper design....but this can be customised to your spec.
@@dave6960 I know mate. I ordered my VP in 43”. But I had a model with 48 oled and it seemed a bit excessive. I think 43 is the perfect size. When my XGC VP arrives I will be able to draw my conclusions. My Premium has all the possible XGC extras.
@@bel303 Yeah, 42/43" is generally considered the sweet spot among vpin builders.A few have said they have tried 48" screens but the ball is way too big (like a golf ball!) and, although it fills the cab better, it doesn't look realistic. I have a 42" C2 OLED in mine I built and it is amazing.
The new OLED looks great although image retention is a concern. With pinball being a pretty static image, this could lead to screen burn if one table is left on for an extended period of time despite TV manufacturer's claiming burn in is no longer something to be concerned with. Burn in (and reduced brightness compared to QLED) is why I bought a QLED instead of an OLED. QLEDS are brighter, no burn in issues and have blacks that are still excellent (even though the blacks on OLEDS are absolute). Still waiting on a TV that has OLED's blacks and response times with QLEDS brightness and lack of screen burn.
Maybe a fair point with OLEDs from 3 or 4 years ago, but LG and Samsung, in particular, models from the last couple of years, a non-issue. Much better firmware, etc, and the conditions required for burn-in - max brightness/static image with high contrast (or a watermark) for a couple of months just don't happen on gaming machines, including vpins. The playfield isn't quite as static as it appears....and if a concern, just make sure attract mode is on if the machine is gonna run unattended for long periods.
@@dave6960 I concur. I have an LG C2 that I use as a general PC monitor and other than having a blank wallpaper and no icons on the desktop I've done no other remedial considerations and it's been fine. No image retention and definitely no burn-in.
I have an LG C9 and have thousands of hours of gaming on it, and on top of that, the TV hardly ever gets turned off its on from the time I get up till I go to bed. No burn in! absolutely love my OLED!
@@dave6960OLED TV has too many reflections. And although they emit pure blacks, I don't think they're the best for gaming because of the lack of brightness in dark areas. Maybe my 40 years of age appreciate the high-end LED lighting. I also had a Pinball with the LG 48” C2 and I prefer monitor technology for gaming. In my living room I have a 55” Oled C2 for cinema. But when I play, I don't feel as comfortable as a high-end LED monitor.

Time to email Donna…
Best Virtual Pinballs in the world. I know i own one
Darryl this looks great, eventually on my vpin thats on the way I think ill reach out regarding a 42/43 inch oled and full matrix. 😂
Can you still get the addressable led on top of the blade? I prefer the way on top in the Premium much better.
I like them the old way as well. On a angle close to the glass. Not flat
@@TracyinEurope The screen itself is angled. The LEDs follow this angle.

Looks great - BUT - that DMD above the playfield seems to be distracting as hell. . can that be turned off?
The DMD (score screen) or the matrix led lighting? Yes the matrix can be turned off.

Hasn't been an issue for quite a few generations anymore. Hard to get overhauled info out of people or the internet.

Do all games save high scores?
Not all, but almost all. This is to do with the programming of the table/app itself. Pretty much all VPX and Future Pinball tables save HS data.
Price ?
