I didn't see this as a thread and thought it might be cool to see how many FULL WORKING games we have all purchased during 2011. I know for sure that I went WAY overboard in buying this year.

Let's see who wins!!!

Purchased = 11 Games

Super Contra
Tempest
Black Widow
Black Widow - (I bought two)
Centipede Cabaret
Punch Out!!
Satan's Hollow Cabaret
Mrs. Pac Man
Playchoice 10
Ninja Gaiden
Arkanoid Revenge of Doh
Vs. Castlevania (had one, bought this to replace)
 
(3) cabinets: (hopefully 1 more coming before the new year)

Mortal Kombat 1
NBA JAM
Smash TV

Over a dozen game PCB's

I also helped a buddy start his collection with 1 NBA JAM cabinet, then a few weeks ago we added (2) pinball machines to his collection.
 
1/2- Wrestlefest, and it was the biggest mistake of my life. It worked when I found it, but it quickly turned into hell. It turned out to be an outrageously rigged cabinet where there crammed a 25" monitor into a 19" cab (there was even a piece of pegboard crammed in there for good measure). It's now in pieces in my basement waiting for me to find a fair price on a cabinet.
 
What's winning? Most or least?

Purchased:

1 - Donkey Kong upright

Sold:

1 - Donkey Kong cocktail

(call it an upgrade!)

Still waiting to own a home before I can really start to collect.
