I think I finally have a lineup I am happy with. Tons of fun multiplayer games, games with unique controls, some old school, some new school. No real marquee names, but I like the collection the way it sits, and the 60-1 brings a ton of classics to the mix. I'm actually most stoked on the Atari row I have going :cool:

Here's a short video of the Garcade and how it will stand for a while. Im not much for talking on videos (I'll leave that up to Blkdog), so just kick back and enjoy the little instumental track in the background. Looking forward to finally being able to enjoy all of these in 2010...

Nice setup. If you go in the "it" menu on the golden tee, you can tell it never to call in, and it'll take that "last call not completed' message off the bottom left corner of your screen.

Awesome, thanks. That has always bugged me.
 
Nice set-up with a decent selection of games.....I myself would like to have something similar to that in my basement but the $800 I get from the basement suite each month is just too sweet to give up.

One thing I will say is that you guys in the USA are lucky in that you can buy such a plethora of games and get them cheap.Here in Calgary there was 1 company that handled pinball/video game distribution back in the day for ALL of western canada and they are assholes www.smlentertainment.com Hell they want over 2 grand for a pacman and you dont even want to ask about the pinball machines.

Gotta say it must be nice to hit CL or the local classifieds and see games listed in the $100-$300 range on a consistent basis.
 
The 720 got sold about a month ago. Truth be told, I loved the game, but no one ever touched it. It simply never got played, and I realized I was more about games that anyone could walk up to and play. Maybe I will own another one someday...
 
Thanks bro. And to answer a couple of PMs...

The Ms Pac isn't hacked. All of the original wiring/parts are still in the cab. I simply took a JAMMA harness, and hooked it up to a switcher. If for some reason anyone wanted to make it OG again, it wouldn't be hard. Sheesh :D
 
Jow, sweet ass video! Your collection is pretty much perfect! Really like the GT and TAXI. Totally jealous! AWESOME!

So sorry to hear that. If you loved the game, isn't that what matters? Did you not play it either? I sell the games that others play, but I don't play enough. The gameroom is for me, not everyone else. My T&F cocktail was a perfect example. GREAT game for parties, EVERYONE played it, but I just couldn't play it by myself. I guess I will always keep a MsPac or Galaga for "everyone else" though.
