[QUOTE="Absynthetik0, post: 37769, member: 1421"] It's not really that I don't like virtua-pin, the concept is incredible and its truly a beautiful machine! Especially the twilight zone cab! However, I don't have the space, money or (to be honest) the will to struggle finding a half decent recreation for visual or future pinball...Here’s what I've been imagining as a simple way to make TPA even more atmospheric. A flat panel TV on a wall mount with a fexible arm. similar to this: [IMG]http://www.medicalmounts.co.uk/images/products/large/emelr5280-wt-qg.jpg[/IMG] Your tv remains a regular wall mounted TV. and when you're done watching the walking dead. you flip the tv to portrait... pull it out, angle it... and you've got a perfect pinball surface! I realise this would be like the "ikea" version of virtua pin. But it wouldn't be that expensive. and you could use the TV you already have. throw in a controller like the DIY one I saw some where on here (please link if you know which one I'm talking about) and you've got the start of something grand (in my opinion) I realise this is lacking the "cosmetic" look. but for functionality... Why not? [/QUOTE]
