I finally have entered the Home Arcade World

[Hovoc]

My 2 MK cabs were delivered tonight.

Me and the gf spent 15 min playing one of them, they are in the garage atm and its too damned hot pushing those buttons

Both are conversion cabs from the game the main event, so thankfully no good games were harmed

The console art lwas piece together from a console artwork and side art work, apparently, but im gonna work on getting new art.

I'm quite happy with the cabs and cant wait to start on building the mame cab.

I'm not gonna bother with pics bc they are generic cabs :P

Well Luckily for me, I am being held back by my living accomodations. Im surprised dad didnt kill me for the 2 cabs in the garage :P

Now if i teach him to play......


Anyways, I gotta either move out, or *gasp* clean out the garage before I can get another cabinet.

well, im only 20, so i still live at home....but, its a good think that my parents always wanted stuff like this, so finding room in the finished basement for arcade machines has never been a problem......but, its starting to fill up now, and realisticially i could probably only get one or two more machines if i did choose to

[Hovoc]

well, i wouldnt be allowed to turnt he garage into a game room, so im just gonna wait the extra few months until i can move out, then start getting a few more cabs.

Really looking forward to getting area 51

area 51.....thats one of my all time arcade favorites....id love to pick up one of those...maybe someday


my goal was 5 arcade machines by 2005, but i dont think that will happen...im probably stuck at 4 for awhile...

[Hovoc]

high on my must have list are:

simpsons

daytona usa (atleast 2 player)

and area 51

[Flack]

You should be able to get a Simpson's for around $500 or so. Area 51 will probably be less. The last Daytona USA I saw on ebay went for $5,000.

EDIT: Here it is.

[Hovoc]

area 51 for less than the simpsons, surely you jest :P

Ah, so true...I've already decided that my Spring Break pinball machine needs a friend....it's just not compatible with the Defender cab.
