    NEW Future Home of Galaxy Blue

    Nice. Darts is always popular in the arcade. Like you said, it adds the physical element, combined with the fun, turn based aspect that any adult with a drink in hand appreciates. When I was at my old apartment, darts was easily one of the most played games during parties. While the vids got...

    SOLD - PARTS SOLD Desert Assault Arcade Jamma PCB Kit Data East clean excellent Rare

    Another update: I was trying to figure out how this scammer could create a new handle that was identical. Turns out, it's not. I copied and pasted both handles into Notepad. The original handle is 'wonderwallroads" with two lower case "L" letters. The scammer/spoofer used two upper case "i"...

    SOLD - PARTS SOLD Desert Assault Arcade Jamma PCB Kit Data East clean excellent Rare

    Just a heads up, it appears that the OP's account has possibly been hacked/spoofed and/or compromised. Someone with the same handle reached out to me, asking if I wanted to buy this, but the join date, messages and reaction score don't line up. The account was created today. Googling the...

    Capcom Big Blue Guide

    That was probably me. It was Aborite S497 UltraMarine Vertical Grade Laminate.

    NEW Future Home of Galaxy Blue

    Yep. Grew up in the St. Cloud area, then lived in Plymouth for about 12 years or so before moving to CA while @CarrieZ save for our future MN lake home. My folks live in Melrose, just off of Birch Lake.

    JD's Taphouse is where my folks like to go. Pretty decent pizza.

    Red Tent Red Powder Coat Questions: Part One

    Yeah, and the crazy thing is they originally gave me an estimate of $350 so it wound up even cheaper. I had a ton of stuff powdercoated by that shop over the years before they closed down. It was around that time, that I found my local guy, Doug, who's pretty awesome. The issue with a lot of the...

    Red Tent Red Powder Coat Questions: Part One

    I guess I'll be the voice to endorse powder coating then. Agreed, to each their own, but I fricking love my powder-coated Red Tent and would do it again in a heartbeat. It was a no-brainer for me, especially since mine was converted to a Neo Geo. Used a hammer/dolly set to get all of the major...

    What fixed your game today / general repair log

    Noticed just recently that the K7000 in @CarrieZ 's Elevator Action had a little bit of a horizontal linearity issue where (more noticeably) the right side would get narrower. Using the TPG showed that there was also a mild version on the left side as well. Per @zenomorp, I knew it was probably...

    HI from Bloomington Minnesota

    Welcome to the craze that is this hobby. I got bit by the bug pretty early in my life, buying my first game in 2004 at the age of 21. Another 21 years later and I still can't get enough.

    Looking for Midway 8 way joystick

    I assume you're looking for the Midway style 8-way joystick used in games like Gaplus? They basically look like a Pac-Man joystick except they have an 8-way/square restrictor inside of the 4-way/diamond style. If that's the case, then yeah, they're not so common. When I restored my Gaplus, I...

    New Project: Tetris Cabaret

    To add to the button confusion, Klax only uses one button yet the control layout is pretty much the same as Tetris, with the "flip/start" button(s) on both sides of each joystick. @CarrieZ has a Tetris PCB and we were planning on throwing a 2in1 switcher in her Klax cabaret (in which case, I'm...

    The Grails That Were not to Be

    Yeah, in my youth, I recall SFII almost always being in a Dynamo/Z-back with that awful control panel slanted angle, some form of Big Blue, or any of 100 various converted cabs of sorts. The Big Blue was always my favorite and I wanted a later gen because that's what SSF2/ST came in and was...

    The Grails That Were not to Be

    Still haven't gotten used to seeing you here on the KLOV forums, Esom. 😜 I like your goal of collecting every fighting game in that 20 year span. That's totally in your wheelhouse. So if you're starting with 1984...have you found yourself a Karate Champ? You definitely need one. I won't let...

    Halloween 2025 Neighborhood Arcade Party

    Yeah we were laughing about that one for quite a while. The boy's Mom was joking that he was sleep walking.

    Halloween 2025 Neighborhood Arcade Party

    Circus was constantly played. We have a couple neighbors that specifically were asking about that game. I wasn't able to really get good photos/videos of it since it's now in the second row on the inside, behind Ms. Pac, and I would've had to plow through the crowd to get back there. Thankfully...

    Halloween 2025 Neighborhood Arcade Party

    Funny you mention Ringer. My biggest highlight of the night was introducing Ringer to a 6 or 7 year old boy. After I helped him get the hang of it, we played about four games together, head-to-head and had some close games. It was awesome. (I'm kicking myself for not having someone take a...
