There is so much to see at Past Times. I spent a few hours there, but really need to come back and spend the whole day (if not more).
Great video, thanks for sharing! It's super interesting seeing the inner workings of such a large operation. The history inside that building is incredible!
Wow what an amazing collection of games.. looks like i need to take a vacation to Girard!
Looking forward to seeing this one my friend.
Loved the new storage area. Hope they get that Ataxx out on the floor!
Stock inventory control at its best. The organizational skills are phenomenal. This place is astronomical! I can’t wait to visit and see/play all these wonderful machines. Thank you for the internal tour and explaining in detail the operation of this amazing place.
Great video! I went to Past Times Arcade last summer and most of the games were in working order. Much appreciation to the staff for their hard work. I can’t wait to go back.
We are heading to Ohio this summer to visit family and friends. Definitely coming by your Museum to spend some time. Thanks for sharing and Greetings from Ontario
Such passion. So impressive. Respect! 😎
Great vid! Mind blowing with all the unknown (to me) storage area on top of the main game area! I've been to Past Times, looking fwd to next visit.
Wow, thanks for this video. It is well produced and edited, very slick and professional. The museum itself is mind blowing. What an incredible collection of games. The care with which they're maintained is a credit to the owner. Hard to believe there's that much money in the world, that one guy can afford to have all those machines and such a well run facility. For pinball enthusiasts, it's a dream come true.
Thanks Tony! Yes this might be one of the best collections of pins, vids, and other gems. Amazing!
im jealous of how organize your parts section is lol
Would love to visit this location. Have always been into pinball and we even owned a Space Odyssey back in the 80s.
What a cool place. I need to visit one day!
The barcode system for reporting repairs is genius!
It’s a fantastic concept for reporting errors/glitches and it goes right into a spreadsheet reporting system.
Sure wish this place was closer to home...What an awesome collection and business Rob has!! 👍🙏
Thanks for the nice video Hollywood
Thanks arcade Hollywood great video.
Excellent video. 👍👍 Excellent, super professional arcade/museum. Thank you Rob and Past Times staff for saving these games and making them available in a clean, organized and fun location. 😊
Thank You RizzleRazz!! It's an incredible place! Rob also runs the Pinball Expo in Chicago.
Once again, another great overview video of one of my favorite new arcades!
Alan, as you know it's just a fantastic place! A destination spot for sure!!
Paradise! You would need to drag me out😅
One of the best videos I've watched in a while. I love the care they put into this place and their organizational skills are outstanding. I recently visited the Pinball Museum in Las Vegas (super fun) and they could take some organization tips from them! Thanks again!
Hello PepperPear!! Thank You for your kind comments! Past Times is outstanding!
UA-cam has delivered me a cool bit of esoterica with this one. Subbed!
Outstanding Work
Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
Oh I would love it there.
I want to get something going like this here in Portland, OR and I have been slowly building my collection of pinball machines.
I only have about 10 so far but they are all great titles even have a Big Game from 1935 that I am working on getting restored.
I like to buy broken games on purpose to get em back up and running and all of the ones I have worked on so far I have done just that.
Only pin I bought completely working is a Police Force which I have been wanting for the past 20+ years and finally have it and only had it for about 6 months now.
That is the secret sauce to building your collection! Plus you really get to know the game/machine by restoring it. Yes Past Times is an amazing place!!
2 of my favorite people in this video
Nicely done Jeff. While I couldn't help but notice the lack of Jack*Bot footage, I learned a lot about their operation.
Can't wait to see the next video and you in Chicago again for Expo 40. Todd has seats for us at the breakfast table.
Kudos.
Scott, I do have a Jack*Bot video coming.
Super cool! I'll have to visit if I'm ever out that way!
You won't be disappointed! So much to see.
This is terrific. Thanks!
Much appreciated! Thanks for watching!
Wish the PHOF here in Vegas would adopt this maintenance regimen.
They should for sure!!
Awesome video!!!!
Arnie!!!
Love the Dracula pinball game. Would love to own one someday.
I haven’t had a chance to play that one.
@Arcadehollywood - triple multi ball. Really fun. Used to play Firepower too. Hope you get a chance to play it. Do you have it? I would love to fix those machine, when I retire. Love doing that stuff. You have a great staff.
Awesome
Thank You for watching!
Slugfest is my favorite pinball game
love Slugfest
@@Arcadehollywood Even if we could afford one and we had room for it, my wife would still say no lol
This was a great video! What happened to Flash?
It needed a restore sitting in the repair area
It's now on the floor. We pulled it from storage to just give it a good lookover before putting it out to play.
Wow what a repair shop jealous. Did Rob buy a bunch of Bitcoin when it was cheap? I can't imagine how much he has invested in this definitely plan to visit myself one day.
I live in California 😢
I'd love to work there. What is the power situation like? How man games per breaker? How many breakers total? What breaker sizes?
Lots of power!!!
We have light switches at the front desk that turn on contactors in the back (much like a stadium). We have rows of conduit in behind each row of games. Every electrical box in the row has four outlets; each box has their own individual 15 amp breaker behind the wall for four games. Much credit is due to the company that installed it (CR Electric). The conduit is so well done that you wouldn't notice it unless you were looking for it. It's actually amazing art.

Quality is way down from what it once was. The sweaty guys on cocaine building these in the 70’s put our modern craftsman to shame.
Huh???? Are you speaking of the games or the facilities?!
@@Arcadehollywood The layout of the internal components look like someone built a kit in their basement.
