I want to see a full done homebrew arcade game like you make a coin op game from scratch with a dedicated arcade machine
Comment from : @wardogdauwdd3020

I need some of that all of it please help
Comment from : @leonardsekete9345

Will this method not damage the console in the long run when the time/power runs out? What would be a work work around for this problem?
Comment from : @KhulZA

And this is how mass shooters are madebrbrMy abusive mother used a thing similar to this, it was a coin operated machine that limited my game time Playing games was my only outlet and escape from her and I wanted to throw her off a cliffbrYes, she was in fact abusive, I am not saying this machine is what made her abusive She would mentally torture me and hit me outside of the virtual worldbrThe virtual world was my only escape and what I did in games was the only thing she couldn’t control so she controlled how long I played for and she did it with the use of coins

This will never work for nintendo switch because kids can just take the switch out of the dock and keep playing
Comment from : @VOLTRONDEFENDER4440

When I was a kid my mom would set a timer for only 5-10 minutes for me to use the playstation and I could never get her to understand that it could usually take that long just to boot up a game and get into it So I was never able to really save anything
Comment from : @rj9959

One big flaw I see is the outward facing screws I hope they are some non standard security screw or the kids will get the idea to just take it apart
Comment from : @evilcrabsitchalways

Is it the same for a ps3? If i wanted to do a coin operated ?
Comment from : @831sholo

I need one of these take my money!
Comment from : @2008DJEvolution

Congratulations your console turned off in the middle of an OverWatch match you have a 9 day suspension
Comment from : @draconic5129

I think you can change the mechanism to use quarter
Comment from : @VOLTRONDEFENDER4440

this is the literal sense of brpay to play
Comment from : @cs512tr

if i wanted to buy this for a ps4 unit, how do i do that?
Comment from : @gamrafrica1692

Why on April Fool's?
Comment from : @brandontechnerd

Just stick a paper clip down the coin slot and eventually you hit the micro-switch, I've done it before
Comment from : @justindelutis1325

I would just get a new xbox power cable and dump the stupid token lock thing can you make it more secure than that?
Comment from : @BloodyScythe666

Pls make a video on how to convert the coin-operated xbox 360 into its original system(being not coin-operated)?
Comment from : @fafafades2052

Is there a written instructions to this I would like to make my own but I would not want it to turn off as it would go on a MAME arcade cabinet
Comment from : @TunzasaurusRex

The intro is made in iMovie 😉😉😉😉😉😉
Comment from : @rippedoffmetits

i don't know if this is a good idea, i would something that blocks the controllers signal, that would be meaner
Comment from : @arenigac

Im gonna try this for my ps2, thinking of making it into an arcade cabinet
Comment from : @polkraine7890

"Sorry, this content is age restricted" what the fuck I don't have age restrictions on my account
Comment from : @u1f98a

What this guy didn't realize, that powering off a console like that, it will damage the hard drive Is like unpluggin it right from the wall Next time the console is turned on, it will have the corrupt message This guy should have done it as i did He should have created an USB timed coin box My coin box receives the controller cable to a receptor A second usb cable goes to the console So it will not cut power, it will disconnect the controller instead common sense is, the battery needs to be removed from the controller So it will just send signal to the console, by being wired No wireless
Comment from : @lvstream720

its the XBOX OS corruptomatic! probably be better with switching tv or an HDMI switcher because non graceful shutdowns are bad for anything resembling a modern computer
Comment from : @kakurerud7516

Nintendo Switch to the rescue!
Comment from : @ThePixelPolygon

Idiot, do this while the OS is updating and the console is bricked, should've made it cut the HDMI so something like that wouldn't fuck up your Xbox
Comment from : @wtblack5

can you make a coin operated computer so I can use this for when my son watches to much youtube??
Comment from : @garyreardon11

I hope that father realizes that when he is elderly and will have rely on his sons for care, pay back will be a bitch!!

12:33 Best Ben Moment ever <3
Comment from : @LetsPlayKeldeo

This is a seriously bad idea You risk wreaking the Hard Disk by cutting power to the device like this on a regular basis
Comment from : @PardonJulianAssangeNow

The Ben Heck Show can you build a robot that will do what ever you want it to do?
Comment from : @biancad3600

Try coin operated Nintendo switch

Comment from : @cheenyboppers

I noticed there is a 5v power supply within this project for direct power from mains for the arduino I am looking for something similar, can anyone identify it or recommend one?
Comment from : @simonparkis9301

I have a great idea a computer or console that looks like a Minecraft block! It also should have Minecraft installed
Comment from : @Framed_Niner

hmm why not use a system that rejects controller connection this would allow save games as well as a way to override it or a 10 and 5 minute warning timers so you can save and exit before time ends
Comment from : @Plurquest

whyhas it got a age restriction on it
Comment from : @itsekeyx

That's a bit mean, potentially losing all their progress, could you not have made it cut power to a wired controller?
Comment from : @shark471

Coowl
Comment from : @bencollins7904

i hate you for this idea turning off someones console midgame is the scummiest thing you can do
Comment from : @FennecTECH

is it not better to lock the HDMI i/o now the console shuts down right brI always wonder how it works with arcades, you can play a round but how does the coin machine know your game over
Comment from : @mother-fng-bonswa3612

The kids could take the cable out of the back of the coin thing and plug it into the Xbox's power supply!
Comment from : @darraghjplays8181

This could work in a workplace as well Like, you get a few tokens every week/month as a game break I guess and actual arcade would work better with this, but it's cool
Comment from : @eggo5643

Hi Ben! Is there a way to create a coin-operated wifi machine? I'm trying to limit their internet use while teaching them the value of money as well
Comment from : @alexwu7251

weve been doing this since that the ps2 with HDD came out for business :Dbr-PHilippines
Comment from : @santinokratos

How is that age restricted

Comment from : @jacksonalleptic4773

Comment from : @williambaker2547

Comment from : @williambaker2547

I wonder how long it took the kids to go buy another AC adapter for the Xbox LOL
Comment from : @The_Laser_Channel

you can clone the avr ISP MK2 using a teensy it costs significantly less ;) shoot me an email if you were interested to know how to do that
Comment from : @behnamsaeedi

this is evil ! I love it!
Comment from : @behnamsaeedi

This would be useful for kids Give them a certain amount of tokens a day for them to play Kind of like a time limiter
Comment from : @RCCentralmain

Wouldn't want to get one of those as a birthday gift :D

Comment from : @jaredcapman9344

You mean kind lady?
Comment from : @jazzkennings3707

yeah they cant unplug it sure but they can just use another power adapter
Comment from : @LiEnby

If you can make it into a cabinet with a screen and a bunch of discs like your cd changer episode that would be epic
Comment from : @Kofi_Mensahs_BurnerAccount

this isnt healthy for the Xbox
Comment from : @CaffeinatedFrostbite

can u make me one?
Comment from : @trejogamer9282

2:41 the guy is just sitting there thinking b"uhhm I don't get what you're talking about maaan"/b
Comment from : @esbendayo

that will only work for really small kids that are like 6 to maybe 10
Comment from : @holyhelga

well in the end if your kids are smart enough they will bypass the system in some way so the system will be kind of pointless
Comment from : @holyhelga

well if i was a kid and my parents did somthing like that to me i would probably do anything i could to bypass the thing
Comment from : @holyhelga

this is why xbox has an automatic shutoff timer
Comment from : @xxsotchxx259

I REALLY need one !
Comment from : @johnsonsfamilyof4

this could be better if you did to the tv, system can get corrupted this way
Comment from : @Secretforest100

I'm just gonna say, if I was force to use this by my parents, I wouldn't have parents It's a bit harsh but I like being able to play my games when ever I want and for as long as I want
Comment from : @GGayzin27D

If they did this to my Xbox i would buy an xbox power cable and plug it in
Comment from : @quarentinesquad4192

if my parents put this on my xbox i would saw the thing open with my dads saw when im home alone
Comment from : @RedfordRoberts

Wouldn't it power surge the game systems?
Comment from : @shannonconley2730

You know, arcades aren't dead Try going to Astoria, Oregon's Arc Arcade It's got tons of nostalgia

Comment from : @Parkenite2047

Can you make me one
Comment from : @softboundskyman9137

What if the console decides to update its os and the time runs out before it gets completed?
Comment from : @Titanic4

Your builds are always cool! Keep it up Ben!
Comment from : @TCB-xr8br

'Beat Me Til I'm Blue' plays in the background All is well, therefore :-)
Comment from : @LJEnglish

The Ben Heck Show so I have a similar request, but instead of the power, how would you do it with say the pause button on the controller? Less for a home, more for an arcade? I'm sure TNT Amusements Inc could help a lot Todd is a wizard on your status
