About
Chris Krentz is a self-professed “Pinball Noob” on a journey to learn everything there is to know about playing and repairing pinball machines. Fairly new to the pinball scene, Chris was looking for a hobby while stuck at home during covid and discovered that pinball combined his lifelong passion for video games with his interest in tinkering with electronics. After picking up his first machine - a nonfunctional Gottlieb Genie that had been sitting in a garage for 20 years - Chris dove headfirst into learning the ins and outs of pinball repair. It took a few months of effort to get the Genie working, but this kicked off an obsession with pinball that led to visiting arcades both near and far, repairing multiple other machines, and a quest to play every pinball machine ever made.
