Install Emporium
Although it is easy to install Pinball Emporium, sometimes it’s nice to have someone there to walk you though the steps. So come hangout with me for 20 minutes and lets get everything installed for you.
Quick Start
Pinball Emporium tries to accommodate as many of it’s users as it can, but sometime people have special setup. In this video we go over how to setup custom resolutions as easy as possible for your own setup.

What is Pinball Emporium?
Pinball Emporium is a simple to install standalone pinball front-end package.
It gives anyone the ability, in as little as 15 minutes to setup a full feature pinball experience. What use to take days if not weeks to figure out, is not the case anymore. We have curated hundreds of tables from unbelievably talented creators, so that once you install Pinball Emporium, it works. No more watching hours of YouTube videos, having to learn or understand code or needing to troubleshoot one table after another, Pinball Emporium just works. We have custom build hundreds of media from imagry, table videos and marquee videos, things you will not find with any other setup.
More importantly, we have a great group of support so if you do have issues, you can get help easily.
The digital pinball scene has been a walled garden for only the people that had the time, knowledge and patents to figure it out, Pinball Emporium is here to disrupt it. We want to make all forms of digital pinball available to the masses, as easily and inviting as possible.

What People Are Saying about Pinball Emporium…
“Thank you for putting this all together. It really is surprising how so many people want to keep things so difficult to do. I want to enjoy the work these guys have put into building these tables. You would think they want them to be enjoyed. After spending hours trying to get this stuff working, I have said screw it and just stuck with my Pinball FX3 tables and had my VPin table boot directly to FX3. That was exceedingly simple to setup.”

It's incredible all the time and effort everyone in the community has put into this, but there's no way in hell I'd have a cabinet that I, my wife, and a few friends have spent at least an hour every day enjoying if it weren't for you making it palatable, thanks again, this is an amazing intro to the world of vpin”

“Thanks for all the hard work..... I have been trying for a year and have done nothing but fight with the VPX, and DOF shit show of software and patches bad youtube videos and a community that seems to want to stay in the stone ages..... installers like this help so much! They allow users to get a basic (well more than basic) system up and running, and give them a chance to focus of the extras...while be able to play a game or two!”
