I really want to get more involved with arcade machines, but space is the ever preventative issue.
That aside, I do have some arcade machines.

Seeing as I'm quoting a post from 5 months ago, did you guys ever try anything to run an arcade?
Replying to this nearly 3 years later! ;)

The discussion is still kicked around every few months, more like a thought exercise than anything else. We will point out where some empty store fronts are, work out what the rates would be, then imagine what it takes to cover the minimum overhead. Not to say it's impossible because there are successful venues around here. I do not see it happening, not unless somebody won the lotto and did not mind dumping some of that money into a gaming facility.

A few months ago I sold off a large stock pile of PCBs and artwork/marquees to one person who likely just resell a majority of it, but that's fine because he's better at tracking down the people who need those items to complete restoration work. Here is my current breakdown of machines:

Sold:
Fighting Vipers
Police Trainer
Mata Hari (SS pinball)

In the past year pick-ups:
pair of Time Crisis II
pair of Time Crisis III
two Space Invaders Deluxe
Super Buster Bros.
Centipede
Night Moves (cocktail pinball)
Code One Dispatch

Owned a good while now:
pair of Cruis'n Exotica
X-Men (4-player)
Arkanoid
AmeriDarts
Rygar (in an old Williams cocktail)
Pac-Man (original cocktail, replaced with an early multi-Pac board)
Robotron: 2084
Neo-Geo (red 2-slot)

The Code One Dispatch needs to do something, bought at auction cheap just for the monitor and discovered the Konami Viper board was bad. I tried flashing new chips for the board but did not do the trick. Trying to stay clear of auctions and sellers, I tend to stumble across warehouses of stuff too often.

[celerystalker]

Never did post my stuff here. I have:

Dedicated cabinets:
Popeye
Centipede cabaret
Time Soldiers
Sunset Riders (4-player)
Neo Geo 1 slot that was set up as a dedicated Metal Slug

PCBs and MVS carts:
US Championship V'ball (US and Japan versions)
WWF Wrestlefest
Devastators
Ninja Baseball Bat Man
Metal Slug
Windjammers
Super Sidekicks 2
Shock Troopers: 2nd Squad
161-in-1 multicart (didn't want to re-purchase my AES collection for MVS)

Sunset Riders gets a TON of play with parties and kids. Centipede my brother and I like to play poorly for points, although Ibought it at my wife's request. Windjammers always goes over big, and Time Soldiers just is a personal favorite. I'm trying to find the same kind of wire harness disconnects as the ones already in my Sunset Riders to make it easier to convert from the Konami kick harnesses to the standard used in Wrestlefest, Ninja Baseball Bat Man, and US Championship V'ball when I'm in the mood for some 4-player. Right now I play them as 2 player in the cab or on my supergun I built.

[hell_razor]

I have
Mortal kombat 2
SNK Neo Geo
Ninja Gaiden
I'm looking to get a pinball machine next, and a cocktail table

[celerystalker]

Added a few more pcbs to the group. In the last few months, I've picked up POW, Gondomania, Black Tiger, and 4 player TMNT. Black Tiger is an all-time favorite. TMNT is one I just have super fun memories of from its heyday, as that cartoon, game, and toy line couldn't have been much bigger in culture at the time. POW I just dig, as it's got that old Rambo meets Double Dragon feel that screams the mid '80s. Gondomania is just a neat little vertical shooter that makes use of the LS30 rotary sticks, so it's a nice one as an alternative in my Time Soldiers cabinet.

[Dr. Morbis]

I guess it's that time again. My current line-up, all dedicated:

-Bank Panic
-Computer Space Ball
-Frogger
-Kickman
-Looping
-Lunar Lander
-Mr. Do!
-Ms. Pac-Man
-Pro Monaco GP
-Zoo Keeper

[Tanooki]

Surprised I never bothered with a list on here since I joined the club in May.

Neo-Geo MVS 2 Slot Dedicated SNK cabinet, and it came with 9 legit and 1 multicart. Cabinet also came with a SNK Neo-Geo mini marquee sheet to go into the marquee
- 161in1 Multicart (around 100 legit, rest are hacks or remade bootlegs) (with game listing long bezel sticker)
- Aerofighters 2 (Sonic Wings)
- Aerofighters 3 (Sonic Wings)
- Baseball Stars Professional
- Bust-A-Move (with full art and marquee kit in ENG+SPN)
- King of Fighters 98
- King of the Monsters
- Metal Slug
- Metal Slug 2
- Samurai Shodown II (with full SPN art kit only)

Since then I've picked up some added games
- Ninja Combat (new not on multicart)
- Mutation Nation, Spinmaster, World Heroes (bundle pick up) -- they're on the multi cart
- League Bowling (new not on multicart)

-- Neo Turf Masters full kit (inbound 2 days ago from Italy) -- on the kit, but so replayable and a personal favorite

The cabinet I'd say is like a 9/10 shape overall, almost no abuse/use to it over the years, coin odometer is in the low 12Ks. Has 2 sets of keys for the system (one for coin mech, other for marquee top) and the original coin box too. It does lack the manual so I printed my own. The whole original purchase set me back $500+ ($75 in value from Dragon Warrior IV + Tokaguma Strategy Guide.) It was a logical pickup, wanted an arcade machine and this allows a full arcade in one space and space is a concern.

[celerystalker]

I've added a few pcbs since my last post. Guerrilla War, Punisher (bootleg), GI Joe, and most recently, Rough Ranger.

Nobody but me around here cares about Guerrilla War, the bitches. My wife is surprisingly super into The Punisher, as is pretty much anyone who tries it. GI Joe my brother kinda digs, but that one's a huge one for me personally. Rough Ranger I really like so far as a fun Rolling Thunder clone, and look forward to playing co-op. I may pick up one more before an 11 day vacation starts next Saturday. Bidding super low on a few ebay auctions I'll likely lose, but I can live with that. I get most of these at low prices with some luck.

So, now mu roster is:

Cabinets:

Popeye
Centipede
Time Soldiers
Sunset Riders 4 player
Neo Geo MVS 1 slot

PCBs:

Gondomania
Guerrilla War
Devastators
Metal Slug
Windjammers
Super Sidekicks 2
Shock Troopers: 2nd Squad
Rough Ranger
Black Tiger
US Championship V'ball (US and Japan boards)
Punisher (bootleg)
TMNT
GI Joe
POW
WWF Wrestlefest
Ninja Baseball Bat Man
MVS 161-in-1 multi-cart

[celerystalker]

Ended up adding a Tekken 2 pcb after winning an auction that had it with a good power supply, JAMMA harness, and Namco kick harness all for $10. Honestly, it's the first version of Tekken that I've ever owned in any capacity. When the series was a big deal on PS1/2, I tried getting into it, but I'm a 2D guy at heart, and prefer Sega's 3D stuff if I had to choose (Last Bronx!!!). Still, couldn't beat the price even for the spare parts, so I guess I own Tekken 2 now. I'm sure some friends will dig it.

Tekken 3 or tag was the more popular in the series back in the day. I never was a big fan, but as an operator I can tell you by the revenues what got more play. Tag still generates a little bit, surprisingly. Not that I would be likely to retire from it, but it does still have a little bit of a following. Got rid of my Tekken 4's as the drives went bad, and were really not worth fixing. Just my two cents.

Interesting to know! After spending some time with it, Tekken just really isn't my thing, but my nieces and nephews like it.

I did, however, add a Heavy Barrel pcb and a Lode Runner: The Dig Fight pcb to my collection. I love the heck out of that take on Lode Runner!

[Tanooki]

I've added a lot of MVS games to my setup since I made that post over a year ago. I forgot this thread exists since the arcade section rarely moves.

It's a shame really, I've become more of an arcade and handheld gamer, kind of totally put off on console stuff for awhile now and have been in the last year selling a lot of it off (everything Sega, NDS games, PS4 games, PS2 slim, etc.) Kind of going minimalist, not liking having a lot around.
