  1. Who here was a teenager in the 80's?

    1969, here. God I was thinking about what great time it was when you did have to spend 24 hrs a day adulting. Running through the malls, hitting the arcades up and the candy counters.
  2. Stargate Restore

    Cut a strip off the bottom where the wood is bad, cutting back to solid wood, and replace. I did 2 cabs this way. I then v-d the seam a touch, making a slight indent in it, so I could fill with bondo to skim coat it and make an ultra smooth transition. Can not feel, let alone see it. Plus once...

  5. KLOV's Thoughts On Taito's Operation Wolf Arcade Game

    Played it a lot back in the day, and operation thunderbolt, the dual gun game. Still a fun game to play in my opinion. I don't have the actual game, but still play a couple times a year on MAME with a trackball.
  6. Images not loading in threads?

  7. NEW What do you LOVE about arcade collecting?

    Honestly, like a lot of others have said, its seeing people light up when they havent seen a game in decades, playing Zaxxon and realizing they still suck at it, after bragging how good they were at it back in the day. Other than that, this hobby gave me a game room, where I sit with a cold...

  9. What arcade games have you been playing wrong all this time?

    All of them. No joke. I am horrible at most of them, although I think I hold my own at Elevator Action. But for the most part I just try for levels and not points. Fun reading some of these, will expand my horizons.

    52 with no plans to retire anytime soon. I might make 60, but might bale at 55. From what I hear, men who retire have a hard time, missing the social life of work.

    Its a blurred line for sure. As many or as few as you want or have the space for. It changes with my mood.
  17. 4 best arcades?

    When I was kid, the Dayton Mall had 3 arcades in it, although one was only small room. It was cool though, it had Crystal Castles and you could see the red glow before you saw the door way. My 2nd favorite back in the day was in Newport RI. We would sail over from Wickford and moor in Newport...
