No power loss here, and no damage to anything but the trees out front. Lots of branches down though, so it's a hell of a mess. Glad that the ones out back are still OK though-those are closer to the house, and hauling downed branches around to the front would have been a lot more work. It's...

Re: I bought a house!! No reason to open up the space if you don't have machines to fill it yet-you can always knock down walls later.

I change them out once a year with decent batteries, but keep the batteries I pull out for other stuff. They still have enough juice to run things like my wireless mouse, a game controller, or some other random toy.

I think I figured out a way to fit 2 more pins in the basement last night by moving the MAME over near the electrical panel. Then if I shift everything else a little bit, I have enough space to still get at the MAME, the breakers, and I can fit 2 more games in the space the MAME used to be...

So now that these have been out for a while, what's the opinion on gameplay? How is the game evolving? Anyone regretting buying one?

Re: FT: XM LE - Wolverine Sentinels has all shots lit, so it's the easiest to finish, and Juggernaut also lights everything but Xavier. Sabertooth switches sides, but it's 3 shots at a time, so that's OK. Shadow king is just the one random shot though, so it's a lot more of a gamble-same as...

Re: FT: XM LE - Wolverine Even the bad beast and storm voices have grown on me over time-they're not *that* bad... Only thing that I've found that could be called an "exploit" in X-Men is using Brotherhood/Hellfire for an easy villain relight, but that's not even that simple. First you have...

Yeah, I got the same email maybe 20 mins after posting :) Artwork looks good, but is that final? I remember they made a big deal about the WOZ art having a progression from one side to the other, sort of following the movie's arc This artwork sort of does that starting from the back left, but...

Re: FS: LOTR----(Keeping) Probably speaks more to the fact that at least a few of us just got a LOTR recently. I probably would have gotten in touch if I hadn't bought mine a few months back.

Just saw the second movie-lots that could be used in the pin. Wonder if they're able to release more now, like the Smaug toy?

At least it's original artwork?

Actually, worse than that is lose/hide the keys :) One of the reasons I thought about getting everything keyed alike, but instead I"ll just keep some spares stashed elsewhere. Besides, I've had problems on some machines with keys getting bumped into the lock and the coin door opening mid...

Sounds like a cool project-looking forward to seeing how it turns out. It's too bad that you can't update over USB though-almost makes it worth buying a ROM burner for it.

Payment sent-thanks again for handling this. Adam/Luch-I'll just grab these from you at the next TOPL night in January.

Congrats-how did the new playoff format work? I couldn't make it on Sunday, but it seemed OK at the brawl for all earlier this year, so hopefully it worked as an actual league playoff.

That's a good idea-I know I've used the inside of the MAME to hide gifts before, but never a pin.

Re: I bought a house!! Congrats Chris-glad you found a place that works. Being that close to the school should be awesome for the kids, and you can't get much better than that for a basement entrance. No more decapitating pins to move them (except for out of your current place)!

Congrats-glad you managed to get it down unharmed and beheaded. At least the newer games have fewer connectors? Looking forward to giving this one a try. The pro at starburst seemed OK-still need to play more to form a real opinion on it.

Re: Xbox One/PS4-anyone buying into another console generati So now that these are out there, did anyone else grab one? I got my Xbox One last week, and so far it's pretty great. Haven't dug into any of the launch games too much yet (other than Killer Instinct, which is surprisingly good)...

Thanks for the tip on the eneloops-I had 4 already, but more are always useful. Just using the stock Sanyo charger on them, but they keep my Xbox 360 (and now Xbox One) controllers up and running.
