Me rikey. Nice work. I wish CA had basements!
Very Nice! Makes my garage game room look...well, like a garage with some games in it.
Looks great. Much less cluttered than I remember from pictured you posted years ago. Nicely done.

Wow. Everyone has already said it, but great selection of games and great "arcade-like" layout.
My favorites are the Berzerk & Frenzy pair and the Omega CP. Awesome.

Very nice setup and it really looks like an arcade. I couldn't help but notice that you can't access the SW cockpit coin door? However, the way you positioned that with the other games looks great!
Uh wow... man wow... holy wow... jeezus wow... WOW! 
That's absolutely amazing! Great job! 
Heh... mine looks like a basement with games in it... nothing like that though.

Nice job Pat. You deserve it after all this time. Feels good doesn't it?
BTB, I'm glad you kept that SW cockpit that I alerted you to all those years ago. So many people pick those up and can't find the room or see $$$ and try to unload them right away. It looks great in your arcade. I hope it stays there.

Sweet! I'm pretty close to your area too. You're filling the Luna City void pretty nicely.
Just curious as to how much square footage you have. I'm in the home buying game right now too and I definately want to see what I can work out.

Thanks for the comments! It's been a long road getting here, but seeing the end result, I feel like it's finally worth it!
.
. Yep... thanks again for the heads up on that SW cockpit years ago. I've owned a few uprights, but the cockpit was always a keeper.
BTW, I've got the games set up on remote controlled power strips, which I hacked to connect to the touchscreen jukebox... so I wrote a program to display the gameroom floorplan, you touch the section you want to control, then select on/off. Or you can do "All On" or All Off". Attached is a screenshot of that.

Heh, soon... I'm thinking near the end of August, but I gotta check my calendar, and make sure I'm not stepping on anyone else's party dates.
Thanks... it's Megabytes Black, from Flagship Carpet.
Heh, yeah... no kidding. The previous pictures looked more like a warehouse
.Yeah, both the Star Wars and Omega Race cockpits have their coin doors to the wall, but I've got them on free play, so it worked out fine. The Star Wars has the SW/ESB kit, so I replaced the middle bolt underneath the control panel with a button to switch games.
Feels great
. Yep... thanks again for the heads up on that SW cockpit years ago. I've owned a few uprights, but the cockpit was always a keeper.The larger room (blue) is ~17.5' x 21.5', and the smaller room (orange) is ~12.5' x 15.5'. Then the middle room is ~6' x 6.5'. So... total square footage is a little more than 600 sq ft of gameroom space (plus hall going into room, bathroom, etc).

Anyone else's? I really need to start talking to more people in the area.
The layout looks really well planned so that there is plenty of space. Did you think of that before using sketchup? Any advice for those of us currently finishing a basement although my gameroom will be the size of your orange room. Anything you would change or should of done?
I like the power touch screen option
