Hello everyone!!
I'm new. Love the site! Between this and BYOAC, what more could a guy ask for?
I spent a ton of time in arcades as a kid. Then once Mortal Kombat came out, I was basically an arcade monkey spending all of my time with a token on the machine through MKI, II, III, and Killer Instinct. It's been a dream of mine to own arcade games for a long time. Also a HUGE fan of sit down racing games!
I've been married for 10 months, and I'm lucky that my wife digs this stuff too. We've come to an agreement. I'm allowed to fill the house with one of each of the following:
4-player upright MAME cabinet as long as she gets a nice jukebox built it.
Cocktail MAME cabinet for vertical games (the little lady is a Ms. Pac man hussler).
2-player side by side sit down driving game.
I have none of the above yet, but I've just started on building my first! Here are a few pics of the empty cabinet I just picked up. Notice the huge coin door hole. I actually posted in the WTB section looking for the extra wide coin door to fill the hole, and I got a reply from a guy selling one, but I could not reply to him because his private message box is full!! Does anyone know a way to contact him???? His username is: orion3311
Here's the link to the WTB post: http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=253216
Thanks for all the help!
