Buying arcade and pinball

What to know before you choose

Our arcade lineup is deliberately short: the Golden Tee PGA Tour Home Edition at $4,495 and the Stern Pinball Home Model Premium at $6,995. Both run from a standard 120 V outlet, both weigh about 250 lb, and both need roughly 4 x 6 ft of floor space including the player's standing room.

Golden Tee keeps the trackball swing from the bar version in a cabinet sized for a game room. The Stern has the same playfield mechanisms and software as the venue machine, which is the point of buying one, and it needs regular care to stay that way. Our Golden Tee Home Edition buying guide covers space, power and online play, and compares it with the Stern.

If the machine is going into a room that already has a pool table, plan the floor first with our pool table room size guide and the room size calculator. Both machines ship by freight, and the product pages list lead times.

How much space does a Golden Tee or pinball machine need?

About 4 x 6 ft including standing room as a minimum, and 6 x 8 ft to be comfortable. Pinball players lean in to nudge the machine, so keep both sides clear.

What power do the machines need?

Both use a standard 120 V household outlet.

Does Golden Tee need an internet connection?

No, it plays offline. Online features need Ethernet or Wi-Fi, and you should check current subscription terms with the manufacturer.

How much upkeep does pinball need?

Plan on cleaning the playfield, replacing rubbers and balls from time to time, and checking the leveling.
