Pinball state championships will be held in this New Yorker’s tiny apartment: ‘I have a couch and a bed, that’s it’

Her arcade’s fire.

A pinball diehard loves the classic pastime so much, she has converted her Park Slope abode into a plinky-plonky paradise — giving up the usual comforts of home to squeeze in 16 of the hulking, colorful machines into her railroad-style apartment.

“I have a couch and a bed, that’s it,” Kaite Martin, a 34-year-old bartender told The Post of her 80-by-15-foot living space, crammed with $100,000 worth of themed pinball machines, from “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” to “Robocop,” and more recently “The Walking Dead.”

Her oldest machine, which has an interstellar-themed layout, dates back to half a century ago, in 1978. Martin acquired it just a week ago for $1,800. Typically, her hunt for vintage and unique machines involves lots of begging and pleading on Internet forums, the bumper lover confessed.

Martin’s collection — now worth $40,000 more than she originally paid — isn’t just for fun and games, though.

On Saturday, Martin will pull off a New York City pinball first: She’s flipping the script by hosting the International Flipper Pinball Association state championship, the first time the tournament will be held in a Big Apple residence.
