Awesome to see my husband’s cabinets on KZbin!!! The Mario one was my favorite ❤️

[@cooltoy]

@@ashleyuhlenhopp1010 he makes good cabinets, it’s been fun finishing it off

[@TheBeerChasers]

Possible to commission something like this?

[@OHWhatsNext]

husband's cabinet?? can you share his info, i would like to build one of these for my arcade. thanks.

[@HitnRunTony]

I’m always up for anything with a big Luigi on it 👍🏽💯

[@HollowBox]

Ya need to talk to Buy Stuff Arcades or Retro Lizard and start making those for sale!!! Ill totally buy one!

[@retrolizardscustomarcades]

I got a vertical in the mix. Probably couldn’t hurt to extend the deck a little to add in these specific controls.

[@HollowBox]

@@retrolizardscustomarcades yeah buddy !

[@gwildor8543]

Same! Add the coin door too!

[@snart]

This is amazing. Pinball Expo usually has a few of the actual machines to play, but they are expensive!

[@cooltoy]

They are very expensive! I'll be at Pinball Expo all week so hopefully I can find an actual physical ice cold beer machine and spend some time on it.

[@richardcooper]

Certainly, is a "CoolToy" amazing as always and perfect for Pinball. 10/10

[@cooltoy]

@@richardcooper thank you very much!

[@drclean04]

Great video, thanks for the recommendation on Zeke's Peak adding that to the steam cart!

[@cooltoy]

@@drclean04 have fun, it’s a great little game

[@legendodinson7082]

That's awesome. Been thinking a vertical virtual pinball would be really cool and a good way to save space.

[@loganlapoint6494]

That game is amazing! Last year the company I work for was contracted to help build the real thing for retro arcade and I used to stop by the pre production area to check out their progress and play some games. I'm not really good but damn is it fun

[@cooltoy]

it is very fun and challenging, it will certainly get your blood pumping quick as you try and keep everything under control during your ascent up the playfield.

[@timstinyarcade170]

This is awesome my friend! Would love that in my game room! Thanks for showing!

[@cooltoy]

Thanks for watching!

[@KING_KONK]

Dude ice cold bear is the best! Amazing job THUGFRESH Bravo bravo

[@cooltoy]

@@KING_KONK it’s super addictive! It’s a blast to play with friends

[@BillsRetroGamingShow]

Great looking machine. Looks like a lot of fun to play and something different from all the multi-arcades out there.

[@kjhoskins]

Looks great. Good job. Thanks for sharing.

@@timborski1210 much appreciated 🙌

[@DannyWelch]

Love it! I'm about to lose my vpin after a move, due to space limitations and this is going to be the perfect replacement project! Thanks for sharing.

[@cooltoy]

@@DannyWelch oh man sorry to hear that, hopefully this helps with the ideas for your replacement

Very cool! I would love to do something like this too

[@cooltoy]

you should! Give it a shot, it's a very rewarding experience when it's all said and done.

You sir are a master of your craft!

[@cooltoy]

thank you kindly!

[@basementcollectibles]

Another great custom cabinet! Is a custom Root Beer Tapper next?

[@E-Pro73]

Cool project! I think I might have finally found a use for the AtGames Legends Ultimate Mini that I have otherwise not really had a use for.

[@cooltoy]

Glad I could help!

[@adamkalb1412]

❤most impressive 🏁

[@cooltoy]

thanks Adam.

[@glenjust630]

Just discovered your channel! This build is incredible - great job! Besides the links you provided, do you ever create a complete list of everything you would need for the build and "how to" on your cabinets? Even a look inside this cabinet to see what's in there? I'm pretty much a novice, but the idea of me giving this a try to build my own is really captivating for myself. I'd love to theme it with Zeke's Peak (with my German heritage) and already see that Szabo's Arcades has both the side art and CPO decals available! Thanks for posting and looking forward to watching your other videos!

[@glenjust630]

Just searched online for the correct cabinet size/dimensions for what you built and can't seem to find what you did (maybe you just created it yourself without blueprint?)

[@charliefaro6555]

SWEET!

[@cooltoy]

thank you very much!

[@Mercdds]

Skillz nice work

[@cooltoy]

Thank you so much!

[@Wolfanoz]

Have buddies who have the real deal. I wouldn't pay that either if it isn't pinball or a hard to get arcade game possibly in good shape (Spy Hunter, Star Wars, etc). Great vid as always man! Time to get a Metallica Remastered. :)

[@cooltoy]

There is really no reason those machines should cost as much as pinball machines. No where near the complexity in components and build in an Ice Cold Beer cabinet vs a solid state pinball.

[@Riz2336]

I didn't know ice cold beer machines cost that much, they must be pretty hard to maintain with the belts getting old and breaking over time. Looks cool man good job

[@cooltoy]

@@Riz2336 yeah they are quite pricey, there is a company that has recently started remaking the machines and the starting price on a new one is $5999 😳

[@flightofapaullo72]

Who makes your custom artwork? That looks amazing!

[@UofTguy]

This is so awesome! Especially the mario themed "Ice Cold Beer". Can I download your creation somewhere?

[@cooltoy]

@@UofTguy I’m still playing around and trying to perfect the physics a little more on it but once I’m done I’ll post a link to download the game if people wish

[@PlanetGeekdom]

@@cooltoysecond the link when ready!

[@Rob.Coleman]

Nice project, I had no idea those old mechanical games were available digitally 👍👍. The home arcade must be looking pretty packed by now, be nice to see a walkthrough 👍. Is there anything you're still looking to add?

[@cooltoy]

@@Rob.Coleman 720 or Super Off Road would probably be the only arcade machines I would be interested in now.

[@Rob.Coleman]

720 is a beast of a machine, Atari in their heyday 👍. SKATE OR DIE 🐝🐝😁.

[@fernandojunior4861]

Hello, your work on Mario is really beautiful, congratulations... could you make it available?

[@mattscheurman1616]

That Mario version is sweet! Going to release that to the VP Forums right?!?!

[@TiltingT]

I've got a couple projects that need to be finished of ypu want to swing by whole you are in town for Expo! Ypu are doing some amazing stuff Doug! I will be at Expo Friday night and all day Saturday, hope to catch ya there and play a few games like we did last year! I really like this machine would be perfect for virtual pinball too and doesn't take up crazy spce

[@cooltoy]

@@TiltingT I’ll be driving up Wednesday and I’ll be at Expo all weekend. See you there!

[@TiltingT]

​@@cooltoyAwesome I will see you there! Work got in the way and I will be flying back into town Friday so I won't be able to be there from open to close like normal but will make it Friday night and Saturday

[@HollowBox]

oh could you put haptic feedback on it when it makes that sound movement so it feels like a machine is inside it working its gears ?

[@cooltoy]

I may just do that! Haptics would be a nice add on for the pinball games as well.

[@OHWhatsNext]

any chance you could provide a link to where the cabinet plans came from for that size screen? this would make an excellent addition to the gameroom!! thanks.

[@OHWhatsNext]

@cooltoy any chance you could provide a link to where the cabinet plans came from for that size screen? this would make an excellent addition to the gameroom!! thanks.

[@cooltoy]

Sorry I don't have any CNC plans or anything like that to share.

[@OHWhatsNext]

@@cooltoy i wasnt looking for any plans, more of a what links did you use from the interwebs? i have built several MAME cades and such, would just be cool to have a dedicated to ICB!! i reached out to the comment below who mentions her husbands cabinets.... can you share that link?

[@PlanetGeekdom]

Pretty awesome! Is ice cold super Mario a mame hack or is it a vpx table

[@cooltoy]

its a vpx table I made

[@PlanetGeekdom]

@@cooltoy dude that’s awesome! Would love to play it. Willing to share the table?

[@ReubensLair]

Dude awesome. So I'm assuming u can map the game to x inputs or real joys on a gaming emulator? I want to download this for my extreme home arcade? Great video

[@cooltoy]

@@ReubensLair if you’re referring to the Zeke’s Peak game, yes if has options to map controls via xinout or keyboard inputs.

[@ReubensLair]

@cooltoy sweet yes that's what I was referring to. Thx bud 👍

[@coachscottie3051]

Love the Build! How did you configure the joysticks to steam? I am having my student create these as a project.

[@cooltoy]

Zeke's Peak has an internal button configuration menu that allows you to assign inputs/keyboard buttons to various commands in game, so I just used that.

[@coachscottie3051]

@@cooltoy Thanks!

[@KirksCORNER1983]

That wwf pinball machine I am so jealous I NEED 1. If you ever wanna sell it let me know!.

[@videogamevegas]

CoolToy, I was actually thinking about adding Zeke's Peak to a Steam Deck and plugging it into my Rec Room Masters, but the idea of playing this game with 8 Way joysticks didn't sound like it would be accurate enough to an original machine. Also, Zeke's Peak has been in Early Access for I think 5 years and I don't know if it will ever be finished. That's the main reason I haven't picked it up yet. I also thought this might be a perfect Arcade1Up Partycade mod, something easy to hang on a wall, but modding isn't really my forte' and I hoped beyond hope that a company would make a consumer friendly virtual version of the game using Zeke's Peak, but alas, it never happened. I just heard of a company re-releasing a real version of Ice Cold Beer and it was WAY out of my price range. Maybe I'll get Zeke's Peak and mess around with it on an Xbox360 controller, it looks fun. Your machine looks awesome btw :) vgv

[@cooltoy]

A partycade would be a nice form factor to set this kind of game up on. I'm pretty sure it's never going to get out of Early Access on Steam. I think the last update they did was years ago, but as it stands I think the game in it's current form is more than worth the asking price they have it listed for. Lost of different gameplay options in it.

[@erickoren]

Do you happen to have plans to build the Cabinet?

[@cooltoy]

@@erickoren no sorry, I don’t have any cnc files or anything like that I can share

[@RuiCesar-ts5uc]

Hello, I loved your game Super Mario, I loved making a machine and I loved your game, is the game available? By giving some contribution, is it possible to have the game? Thank you and congratulations for your fantastic videos.

[@DigitalJazzArcade]

Add a coin door :)

[@hoganzeros3572]

How did you get Zeke's Peak to play vertically? I've been trying. Their cabinet mode isn't what I thought it was. Any insight would be great. Great project and great video!

[@cooltoy]

@@hoganzeros3572 set your windows display to portrait mode

[@mj23rule]

I wonder if he set the windows display to portrait mode (under system/display in windows, not Steam).... Maybe @Cooltoy can confirm..

[@lasvegasira]

I bought Zeke's Peak on Steam and went to play it, but all the screens are locked. Is this one of those games where you have to play them in order and earn coins or something to unlock them? I just want to play Ice Cold Beer and Zeke's Peak.

[@jayleon89]

So you built this, didn't buy it?

[@cooltoy]

@@jayleon89 I bought the cabinet and built finished product

[@chucksgrace3225]

​@cooltoy where can you buy this cabinet? Or do you know where online you could find these plans? Would love to try and build myself. Thanks
