    What Arcade Games Am I Missing?

    Okay, so if you've listened to the podcast, you know I have an Arcade 1Up Street Fighter II cab that is on long term (possibly permanent) loan to me. The owner essentially did a RetroPie to the thing, except he used a PC so he could have Steam games on here. He upgraded the buttons and...

    What Are Your Guesses For Zen's Next 10 Years?

    I'm assuming everyone read this last week when Zen posted it to Twitter and Facebook... A pinball message from our COO (Mel Kirk) Hi everyone, I know this has been a very slow year for pinball releases -- oddly, the slowest in our 13-year pinball development history. Behind the scenes...

    What Would You Pay To Have Actual Film Scores For Zen Original?

    In our podcast, I suggested that it’d be cool, though costly, to be able to pay for DLC on an individual table basis to get the actual film score music in Zen originals rather than the generic music. I mean Jaws is not Jaws without that theme. Jurassic Park is sorely missing that oomph from...

    Hypothetically How Much To Start A Pinball Arcade?

    In my daily ruminations, I started thinking about what it would take to start up a pinball arcade, what you'd need to have besides pinball, and how long it'd take to before you were turning a profit. I know nothing of leasing a space, setting up a business, nothing. So who wants to play along...

    I've been thinking about this, I've seen plenty of others mention it, so let's make a list! During challenge modes for 5 Minutes and Survival, which tables does the timer pause for and which don't? Does it pause for animations, during video mode, what?

    Let's Guess What The Zen Enhancements Will Be!

    We've got our table guessing threads, but what we don't have is a thread in which to guess what visual enhancements Zen might do for future tables. Now that we have a good idea of the sorts of things they might do, let's speculate! To start, I'm gonna look at the remaining non-licensed DMD...

    Okay, I'm gonna go waaaaay down the rabbit hole here, so stick with me. As some of you might know, I maxed out all 7 tables within 16 days of release of the app on iOS. What I didn't know was that Zen was running a few different models, where some people had easy collecting goals and others had...
