It's been awhile since i've posted on here. But I had to share this with everyone. I've wanted a Food Fight for as long as i've been collecting games. But due to the scarcity/price range, I figured that I would never have one. Hell, I haven't seen a Food Fight since the one I played in a pizza place in my hometown as a kid. Also, West Virginia isn't known for being the rare game capitol of the world. But lo and behold, a guy posted one he had found on a facebook arcade group for guys in my area. The pictures looked amazing. Evidently, the original owner ran an arcade and took the game home with him after the arcade closed. It was only in the wild for a year then spent the next twenty or so under a tarp in storage. The guy posting on FB got it for two hundred dollars.
He went on to say that he only got it because it looked good and was cheap. He had no idea of its value, and little interest in the game itself. So I sent him a message letting him know if he ever wanted to part with it, let me make an offer. He immediately wrote back and asked me what I thought. I offered $700 and he bit immediately, and offered to deliver it. His wife wasn't really happy about him adding another game anyways, so he got $500 profit and a happy wife. And I got a game i've always wanted, in great condition, for a good price.
He showed up a week later and the game was even better looking than the pics indicated. Fired up perfectly. The screen had little to no burn and the joystick worked great. Heck, I opened the control panel up and the joystick looked brand new. I realize I neglected to photograph the left side, but I assure you it's just as nice as the right side.
I can't stop playing this game.
Here's a brief video:

Thanks for looking!
