So as the title says, does anyone own one?
If so what is your system? can we see some pictures ?

Recently I have been developing an interest in real pinball machines that I used to enjoy at Arcade shops when I was younger. Sadly most if not all of them disappeared. So I was thinking why not invest in a real machine for home use.
I Found a refurbished Gladiators machine from around 1993 for 2500$ and been planning on buying it with some spare parts for it.

In the market for a couple myself including Arcade. Looking for a PinBot. I did though, have the opportunity to fix a couple over the past year for my dad. He bought them and I said I could fix them. I got both up and running.

The two are Tx Sector, and Mousin Around

Here's where I posted about the fix to Tx Sector.

Mousin Around had alot of broken solder joints and a couple bad PIA chips, but managed to get it playing also.

Here's afew pics before and after fixing TX Sector

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Carrying a PC or phone is so old school!
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
