This is the most insane and beautiful custom arcade “cabinet” collection that I’ve ever seen. I’m so envious.

[@pineapplejack476]

This is one huge investment. I'm envious. But really if things got rough for him some day or he needs to downsize he has something he can sell for some serious cash.

[@AchtungBaby77]

@@pineapplejack476It's not really about the money though - it's sentimental value. People who own these classic cabinets will always be reluctant to split with them.

[@benjamincrane7614]

Thanks to Nick and Kevin for coming to make this video. It is always fun to hang out with others who have a genuine passion for the hobby. I really admire the effort they put into their twitch streams (mine are much more sporadic) and youtube videos.

[@brianford9522]

Any chance the dimensions to those awesome wall mounted arcade cabinets are available? I have a long wall and not enough floor space. Would be amazing to do the same thing!

[@nerdloftgaming]

That Xenon backglass - beautiful work done to it!

[@chadzulu4328]

OMG this is awesome!! What I find particularly amazing is that he built those cabinet games himself.

[@sadboi7537]

Wow. I legitimately would not leave my house if that was my collection. Unbelievable!

[@mirisoji8406]

The light you made for your wife is the coolest freaking thing!!!!!!

[@theblowupdollsmusic]

This person is on another level. Amazing setup all around.

[@matternst5310]

Ben is a beast! And super friendly streamer on twitch. High quality and he streams more than one game on stream. Thanks for sharing Ben and thanks Buffalo for another quality video! ~The Gentleman

[@softdorothy]

Ben is a genius. Those hanging arcade machines are pieces of art.

[@browe]

Star Trek - my first pin, too (and still my only pin!) Earliest games I fondly recall growing up were 8-Ball Deluxe, Black Hole, and Haunted House. Always wanted a Tron, so quite envious!

[@WxManBookie]

This is over the top. Definitely one of the top 3 home collections I've ever seen.

[@Test-ig1oz]

What an awesome collection! Thank you for sharing!

[@BuffaloPinball]

Thanks for watching!

[@tsunamirider9895]

Absolutely beautiful collection. Wish I had the room and finances to do something similar. I owned one pinball machine back in the day. It was an older analog model but I really loved it and still miss it.

[@byronchandler5000]

That home arcade looks really sick, man, in a good way.

[@Mugen_4_lifeKRXR]

Who would down vote this content? Always quality from the Buffalo team. Awesome Collection Ben. 👌🏽 although you should look into moving to VT! 🤣

[@TheGeocab]

Some people just want to watch the world burn.

[@russellgentile4719]

Beautiful collection, Ben. If you have any children they are growing up in a dream house. Something as kids we only dreamt of is a reality here. Congrats.

[@tomyyoung2624]

cool home arcade tour!

[@zamiadams4343]

Absolutely amazing arcade!

[@utubepunk]

Damn those cabinets are creative. Really pays homage to the originals!

[@mikeyfoofoo]

Wow. Incredible basement. At first I thought it was going to be shorter, but the tour just kept going! - Couple questions did Ben have to run extra electrical circuits for all those pins? And does it ever get hot down there?

[@benjamincrane7614]

Doesn't get too hot (basement tends to be cooler anyway) unless there are a lot of people down there. I designed the basement for this with the appropriate electrical circuits when it was remodeled.

[@mikeyfoofoo]

@@benjamincrane7614 Thanks.

[@paulclarke7571]

The dog barking mod at 18:14 is THE BEST!

[@dinnerfor1540]

That Rampage looks sic!! The way the body behind the screen is a building is AWESOME!!!! I love what you did by having arcades mounted to the wall. That’s exactly what I would do to save space. Great job on your space!

[@Sarge395]

Wonderful tour. Thank you. I'm about to purchase my first machine. I hope the infection doesn't take hold and take over my basement.

[@BuffaloPinball]

Oh it will! 🤣

[@micahbageant659]

Absolutely Amazing! The Purest will cry about how there not True Cabs, but this guy is Genius...

[@ForeverLacey09]

What a beautiful collection and game room. Great Job Ben!!

[@mattcaine9938]

Nick is a beast at pinball. Watched him play at Bruce's years ago.

[@memyopinionsche6610]

That XENON back glass is pretty dope. Even though I'm a purist.. it deserves a pinball machine.. But yeah I get it and would probably would do it as well.

[@johnnygirling55]

Wow! Great room tour, loved hearing about the games. Great job.

[@dman1848]

OMG I love that FLYNN'S sign!!!

[@Jasons_Arcade_PLUS]

Incredible collection. Love it.

[@TheKurtsPlaceChannel]

Very nicely put together video and very entertaining as well. Thanks for posting this.

[@thekingofallblogs]

Wow , some serious coin and effort put into this collection. But worth it.

I think I'm in love with this place.................🤸‍♀🤸

Love the Tales From The Crypt!

[@joshgrube84]

Wow arcade 1up stold the Wall-cade from Ben who knew?! Stunning gameroom! Also just rewatched all 3 of Buffalo's Elvira bro shows to celebrate my EHOH arrival those as fun as Martha's Elvira hair..haha

[@benjamincrane7614]

Yes I made these before Arcade 1UP started doing them. I used to get lots of requests to build them but never wanted to make a business out of it as it would have been too time consuming.

I think so too!

You are elite my friend. Amazing.

[@imnitguy]

Really nice collection!

[@brewt1mer]

I love the bar tops hung on the wall…

[@benjamincrane7614]

Not really bar tops, I made them custom for this purpose.

[@robotactics6635]

At 5:12 you say it like its a bad thing, I thought the sequel to Tron was FANTASTIC and stood shoulders above when compared to the original...

[@benjamincrane7614]

I actually agree with you on this. But the original was really ground breaking for the time.

[@funtyes1970]

i love arcade wall mount arcade machines .

[@BrianKapellusch]

I do like the idea of having 1 rasperry pi machine per control type.

[@ChicagoRetroGamer]

WOW! Can I come over for a weekend? Seriously, this is awesome! Cheers from your highly jealous retro gaming friend!

[@sykoskid]

So glad they made visual and future pinball apps

[@slayerment]

This guy is fuckin awesome!

[@ThomasGrillo]

Mr. Crane needs to be working for Arcade1up, designing their Party-Cades (formerly known as wall-cades). No! Really! Those wall mounted arcade cabs look way better than the current stock of Arcade1up's Party-cades. Really enjoyed the tour. My little home arcade's got nothin' on this arcade. :)

Star Trek and demolition man. Top tables.

[@mooncloud6563]

Nice,

[@Jordan__Sloan]

Wow the ramps on that Tron, didn’t know it looked like that, any other pins with those?

[@benjamincrane7614]

Tron LE was the only one that had them stock. A lot of Tron pros had them added

[@oforkya]

Finally a rich guy that knows how 2 spend his chips.

[@DriverGuy23]

Amazing, a $150k+ just in Pinball machines alone. All the good ones & they aren’t cheap. I made this comment half way through the video & there’s a lot more coin than that in this collection.

[@kurtestes1575]

Badass

[@gigantore]

Insane game room. Beautiful pinball machines. Thanks for sharing. What does the digital pixel clock run on? Raspberry Pi or an Arduino? I think that’s the only thing I can afford. Lol

[@BuffaloPinball]

It's a RUN-DMD. Info and order here: run-dmd.com/

[@justz00t48]

That must of set you back a couple hundred.

[@BWinfrey1995]

All he needs music wise is an Aerosmith that game is incredible that Iron Maiden and GNR are my favorite games hands down

[@RealziesCuts]

F yes Ben! Thank you for motivation with the killer home Arcade I subscribed and I share videos on A$$Book I’ve got a lot of haters on that app so it’s fun to irritate people by sharing the things you love since haters don’t have goals or passion 😂✊🛋🦍🚀🏆

[@eterniaarcade9256]

Extremely talented. I love the Robotron Arcade. Just curious. Do you sell these?

[@benjamincrane7614]

I get asked if I will sell them a lot but I don't. I couldn't make them cost effectively.

[@Happytriggun]

Dayyuuuuuum!

[@matts7726]

=[ I asked stern to make a tales from the crypt pinball machine because an old school mall that got torn down where i live used to have it and I would play the fuck out of it... want that machine LOL!

[@Markle69]

Rampage model was cool, you designed that arcade cabinet? I thought the Batman and Robin Pinball looked cool. Does Ben Crane have his own channel?

where's the other half of the cabinets?

[@raptorgames9]

No Pink Floyd pinball? Sick collection.

[@benjamincrane7614]

I'd get one if it existed

[@daanrosvelds1769]

on which site do you buy your pinball machines

[@benjamincrane7614]

I've gotten them from a number of place including the local collectors, and a local dealer. Game Exchange of Colorado is probably the dealer I have bought the most from.

[@Michael-kv9vw]

The AC/DC is the pin that always makes me wonder.... are you not afraid of God? They’re straight up mocking God! I could never have that in my house! I guess that’s why “fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge”. I think it’s time I start examining all my Stern pins!

[@cwgraham78]

They are afraid of god, that is why they sacrificed that lamb to make him happy. You did watch that part of the video correct?

[@Michael-kv9vw]
