Hello! My name is Rosie, and I'm new here to these forums. I've lurked a little bit the last few years to try and read up on arcade stuff - looking at restorations people have done, advice on boards, etc. I decided to finally make an account because I'm dipping my toes into working with PCBs.

I've been a video game player since I was very young, but had mostly played and collected console and PC games. However, I've liked arcade titles since I was young too. A lot of my initial experiences were Jakks Pacific Plug 'N Plays, and the Ms. Pac-Man cocktail cab at my laundromat. It gave me a love of early 80s Namco titles - Bosconian is still my favorite!

Right now, I own no arcade games, but am hoping to soon get my first (few, potentially) boards to play around with. I'm currently waiting on a Supergun to ship from Axumworks, and I've got parts on the way to assemble a little control panel for plugging in and playing on my CRT. I've had a little electronics experience, but I'm hoping to both beef up my soldering skills this year and hopefully learn a thing or two about PCBs as I go. I'm eyeing a working Pac-Man PCB to start out with and get working in my setup.

Thanks for having me, everyone!
 
Missouri? Nice, I've bought more stuff from your state than mine. If you are within driving distance of Branson you shouldn't have any problem finding boards to test your skill. Cheers from Oklahoma
