How are you folks doing? I'm checking in from the south bay area of Los Angeles.

Recently after flirting with the thought for several years I have decided to get into owning/restoring arcade games. I have a friend who followed suit and he recently became a proud owner of an original X-Men vs. Street Fighter cab that I've been helping him tinker with and restore. It's been a blast so far and definitely inspiring us to learn more while making us want to buy other games at the same time.

I have a short laundry list of must haves, but lately I've been itching for a Robotron and am going to attempt to slowly try my hands at a scratch build over the next several months. Quite honestly seeing what some of you fine folks have accomplished in that field is what inspired me to join. Incredible stuff here!

I look forward to contributing when I can!
 
Hello from another so-cal'er! Would love to see some pics of the XvSF cab, if you feel like posting. Welcome to the forums!

Here are pics of the cab my friend took. Between the left and right side art, and the marquee all being from different games, this cab definitely suffers from some serious identity crisis. This likely will become a dedicated X-Men vs SF at some point soon though. Before any of that happens though, I've got to change the suicide battery on the board asap. Somehow it still runs using the original one from '96. Go figure!
Welcome... Where in the south bay? I'm in Torrance.
Oh wow, I'm practically your neighbor right here on the border of San Pedro/Rancho Palos Verdes. Nice to see a good following down here in SoCal. Thank you all for the warm welcome!
