    Default First Time Poster! Great News!

    Gentlemen, great website, I am an avid Video Gamer.


    Now to the meat of the story.

    I have just bought outright, for only 250 dollars, that's right 2-5-0. A working and mint condition I believe of the Simpson's Beat um up. I was bowling with the girlfriend today, and the alley is closing, which is cool because I hate/suck at bowling. Anywho, in the corner lurks the machine I have dumped more quarters in than Defender, Double Dragon, and Street Fighter! That's right, it's the Simpson's! So I ask, half joking, to the owner (who is the GF"s uncle) how much for the machine, he says 250.... I say, are you joking? He says nope, I don't want it, so here I am about to lug in the machine to the basement tomorrow to join my Simpson's pinball game.


    I am a happy man, that is all.


    Look forward to chatting with you all.


    And by the way, Rondo of Blood is >>>> that Gunstar Heroes, that is all. :P
    Capcom or Konami, that is the question....

    Lucky! I love that game! Used to spend hours at Chuck E Cheeses playing it as a kid.

    lmfao

    For months my old workplace had a Simpson's cabinet on the second floor, and I never once got around to plunking a quarter in it. Eh, I'm sure I spent the money well....

    Are you serious? That is awesome! I absolutely love that game. If I were to have a choice of an arcade game to get, I would definetly get that one. I remember picking Marge and hitting people with the vacuum cleaner.
