I think he might be living in Maryland now. But I could be wrong though. He also has a new website here at https://peterhirschberg.com/#/ if you want to take a look, and maybe try to contact him there as well.

You're welcome. He's doing good last I checked, and I'm also friends with him on Facebook. But he did deactivate his account there, and hasn't been on the site for at least a couple of weeks for some reason now though.

The atmosphere at his place must have been like none other during gamedays, even if I never had the pleasure of experiencing it myself. I didn't even find out about his arcade until after he got (or was about to get) rid of it. To think that some gamers would literally fly across the country (if...

I'm looking to see if anyone has the instruction sheet to this game, which tells you the moves, and stuff. If anyone has an extra one they can sell, or just simply make a copy, or just simply post a photo of the whole thing, that would be great, and much appreciated. Here's a partial photo of it...

Yet he loved it's prequel Galaxian, which he ironically never did own too! (L.O.L.!) He was still planning on adding more games to his home arcade as time went on until issues with his job, finances, and marriage began to slowly but surely rear their ugly heads. Though the young man who he truly...

I discovered there's now a book he wrote which gives you a good insight on how Peter's once amazing collection (and overall interest in video-games) started throughout the years. That along with a better idea of when things began to go south with both his hobby, and personal life down the road...

Wish I could have seen it myself too. I didn't even find out about the place, until after it was sadly dismantled, and will forever wonder what exactly may have caused, and went down with that? Can't imagine putting all that time, effort, and money into such a project, only for it to be totally...

I'm actually friends with him on Facebook, and can tell he's an all around good guy. He recently reported that he's now down to just his first ever game, which was Asteroids, along with two pins as well.

Oh how I still truly miss Flashbacks, and can't believe it's been over five years since Sandy washed most of it away, along with the fire totally finishing it off a year later! They had their best setup ever since I started going there in 2012 I.M.O., and never crossed my mind that would be the...

Went to the boardwalk in Seaside again last night. Still has virtually nothing left on the end of it where the fire happened, along with very little sign(s) of redevelopment for that matter as well. It's a real shame Retrocade didn't last long, and that Flashbacks is gone for good, along with...

I hope that end of the boardwalk will have more too it, and be rebuilt eventually. It's just a sad/sore sight seeing it almost totally gone, when there was so much stuff there to do before Hurricane/Superstorm Sandy and the fire, with the old time Flashbacks Arcade being the most devastating...

Sad that this place is no more, and has been for a couple months now, or so I was told. I was on the Seaside Heights boardwalk today, and could find no sign of that arcade. I noticed it's Facebook page is also gone too. Bummer that I never got to check it out myself, which I was really hoping to...

It is hard to believe this game is already six years old, with the movie being seven. This was the only real good thing to come from the movie too, I.M.O. And there's still no console port for the game in sight after all this time for that matter! :(

God this game is just simply amazing, and is always one of my top priorities to play in arcades, even if that's not really saying much these days. What I wouldn't give to be able to play this masterpiece at home, and can't believe it hasn't gotten a well deserved console release after all these...

There's a website called http://www.thegameroom.com which can repair arcade boards. I've had them do several of mine in the past, and were often able to fix them. Hope this helps.

I have a three inch Ultimarc brand Trackball, which works fine, other than when I move it in or around the upper right, or lower left directions. When I do so, it bumps towards those the sides, and won't stay in place (while banging into the housing), thus makes moving it those ways kind of...

Well I got the new shafts & bearings replaced, and the ball is definitely better. However, the ball still bumps out of place when it's rolled in the right direction, mainly when it's moved in the upper right like I said. As a result, rolling it still doesn't feel smooth when moved in that way...

Meant to say I did, and I'm getting the parts from him soon! Hopefully these will fix what is ailing the trackball as well. Like I said, I know the ball isn't the problem, as it moves fine as long as it's away from the right direction, and it seems it's somewhere in the upper right part to be...

Wanted: U-Trak/Ultimarc Trackball Repair/Rebuild Kit I'm looking for parts I can use to repair/rebuild my three inch Ultimarc/U-Trak three inch trackball. It's had a small problem that just got worse, and it badly bumps & bounces whenever I move it towards the right. I can tell that it is not...

It's a shame this place is totally gone now, first from the superstorm/hurricane, then the fire a year later, which completely destroyed the building, along with many other places on the boardwalk. Going to Flashbacks was my favorite thing to do while there, and during the summer in general...
