I just got to level 24 in Galaga! I've owned my machine for a few good months now, and tonight I saw levels that I have never achieved before! I got to see the Galaxian motherships and some other new fighters! My game and monitor held up to the abuse. Galaga is going to get some love this year, for sure.

I also called up the friend that sold it to me just to thank him again for selling it to me. I now know why I wanted this dedicated...anything else would have felt like cheating. There's nothing like games on their original hardware.
 
galagas absolute brill,its my holiest of holy grails.i had it on 60n1 on jamma and because of the state of room in my pad i sold it off to get cash and space and galaga walked out the door.

i am more into dedicated and i would love a dedicated one.its the cherry on my cake.

I have the tale of Galaga nerd sadness.

I was 23 and in an airport in Orlando. There was Galaga I was having the game of my life. My two buddies that I went to Panama City Spring Break with Cheering me on. As I hit level 164 I said "Hey our flight leaves at 2PM, what time is it?". He answers back "1PM we have at least a half hour until we need to board".

What we failed to note was Panam City where we had been all week is CST, much like Wisconsin. Orlando is Eastern time, or one hour ahead. So when I asked Captain set-a-watch, what time it was our plane was taking off.

Long story short we rented a car and drove back to Wisconsin. Kinda wish we would have stayed one more day, the next day was WCW's last show, it was at Spinnakers where we spent the prior night drinking. Back then I was a wrestling fan, if only I would have known.

So yeah...I missed a flight because of Galaga.

You are understood.
