Descripción

We rang in the new year here at Reclaim Arcade with a fantastic sold out event, but then had no idea what was in store in the weeks to come as we prepared to celebrate our 5th year anniversary and weather the ice storm that came down on Fredericksburg. The roller coaster of this business never stops, hear all about it in this week's episode!

019 - Retro PCs and Road Trips

It's the May edition of Open Coin Door and we've been everywhere — Vegas, Florida, Pennsylvania, and somehow back alive. This episode, we break down our wild adventure streaming the pinball tournament at PinFest in Allentown: a buy-sell-trade pinball festival where the peanut guy moved, the internet barely existed, and one of us ended up in a maintenance closet on the phone with a stranger trying to save the stream. We also go deep on Scorbit — the platform quietly connecting old pinball machines to the internet — including live tournaments with real cash jackpots, how NFC login actually works (and where it doesn't), and why Jersey Jack is still the villain of this story. Plus: a fully functional Windows 98 PC with flying toasters is now in the building, shoutout to Branden.

018 - When New Pinball Breaks (and Why We Still Love It)

In this episode of the Open Coin Door podcast, we’re catching up on a wild few weeks at the arcade, from launching Pokémon Pinball (and dealing with immediate game-breaking issues) to diving deep into the evolving world of pinball tech and player experiences. We talk about: • The highs and frustrations of new pinball releases (and support… or lack of it) • Why Pokémon is dominating play counts despite the hiccups • The future of connected pinball with Scorbit and real-money tournaments • A surprising deep dive into 3D printing and how it’s changing repairs, customization, and even trophies • Behind-the-scenes of major events like Fools Fest and what it takes to run them smoothly • Plus upcoming tournaments, arcade events, and what’s next for Reclaim Arcade It’s a mix of arcade ownership realities, pinball nerd talk, and some big ideas about where this industry is headed.
