    Mappy & Jr. Pac ... Reunited and it feels so good ...

    Yeah, it’s still stored for now. Don’t have enough wall space in my place for more marquee displaying.

    which one of your games did you PLAY today?

    Mario Bros. Not the 260k score the last time I went to round 26 though. Still hard like heck after all these years.

    Tron3 (aka, Tron: Ares) gets the green light.

    Guys, I'm not criticizing anyone for liking the movie or liking the actor. Maybe I'll watch it in spite of the above post of mine when it comes out on digital. Forgetting about the movies, I hope those who own a Tron machine enjoy a few good games today!

    Tron3 (aka, Tron: Ares) gets the green light.

    Well, I saw small parts of it here and there in reviews and such and I was reading this thread all along - which pretty much sums it up as bad. And it has bombed at the box office. Hey if you guys enjoyed it, good. Hopefully you paid a ticket/fee to watch it and not some sort of online rip...

    Tron3 (aka, Tron: Ares) gets the green light.

    I haven’t seen the movie. I decided not to bother with it. I think the actor is fine. I think Legacy was great and don’t care that the CG wasn’t perfect in that one. But for this new one, the Hollywood writers don’t have the talent they used to have. I feel they just became complacent once they...

    Arcade artwork for other means.

    Interesting. But for your frett design, I would put the Pac-Man in the middle and facing to the right instead, followed by one dot followed by the four blue ghosts and I would put the regular four ghosts on the left chasing Pac-Man.

    Show me your colored (non-black) t-molding :)

    Geez, what happened to all the arcade purists?! I had seen orange on a midway cabinet, but didn't know all these other colors were reproduced - which I guess were specifically for this hobby. The green on Galaga looks great.

    What's the lifespan of somebody staying in the hobby?

    The good: playing these wonderful old beasts and gazing at them with their interesting cabinet shapes and art work. The bad: when a monitor stops working. The ugly: when you got to move a freakin' heavy machine like a Spy Hunter. I've been here longer than most; although I was inactive from...

    Top 25 Vectors

    So I guess I am not a vector guy if I say that I did not even know there were 25 Vectors ever created ;-)

    These games have survived over 40 yrs. Will they make 40 more?

    Well, to be honest with M.A.M.E. using the scan lines option and with a newer 2020+ LED monitor with almost no ghosting and no input lag, the games look pretty good. But all I’m saying is if I therefore put that type of monitor that enables some sort of scan lines within a little interface...

    These games have survived over 40 yrs. Will they make 40 more?

    Like others have said, without CRTs, all this knowledge and tools of keeping everything else fixed and reproduced won’t preserve 80s arcade machines.

    Canadians - Where are you getting your basics from?

    Here's the reality: Canada is one ninth the size of America, which means that in general, there is much less demand for any hobby including arcade stuff. We've just never had the speciality sites for things like art reproduction or specialized cap kits here in the first place. It has only...

    Side by Side Two Of The Same Game

    What’s One Arcade Game You Regret Selling or Passing On?

    2x Indiana Jones trilogy Williams pinball machines for $1200 each back in 2003 or so! Beat that! But no, I wasn't into pinball. I just wanted video games, duh, I thought I had some smarts, lol.

    Any NINTENDO VS, SYSTEM DOUBLE CABINETS OUT THERE?

    Well sir, we would love it if you would take the time to post some pics! I am personally still trying to understand the shape of the DualSystem marquee (both sides being different, etc.). Thanks.

    Found em Dirty Photo thread

    First thing that came to mind when I saw the horror in some of these pictures is the diamond glowing scene from dragon’s lair where Daphne says: “save me!”

    Anybody like Xybots?

    Xybots was great for me! The name was cool and original. The graphics were interesting. The joysticks were unique. (close to Icari Warriors, I guess.) But like the Ed Logg 1985 Gauntlet, this game was a money hog designed to eat quarters. It is really hard to get to the end of some of the...
