Lets just say that I acquired my first arcade game yesterday and I wanted to share my experience. Ive had a royal rumble pinball for about seven years and really enjoy it but a couple of months ago I found this site and started reading and getting an itch to get an old arcade game. I first wanted to get a Dragon's Lair but soon found out that is tough and very expensive so I set my sights on a Operation Wolf which i enjoyed playing back when I was a teenager. After several weeks I found one to buy about 4 hours away and convinced my wife that it was ok for me to get it and not think I was nuts.(not) After a harrowing trip in the rain through most of ohio yesterday my son and I returned with Operation Wolf. I plugged it in and started playing and then opened up the back and cleaned the monitor, mirror and bezel glass and it looked really good. My neighbor's kids, my kids and my wife all played it and it was awesome. After they had all played it I continued to clean the sides and vacuum the inside and then started playing some more and as it got darker in the garage as the sun went down(keeping it in the garage til i get it ready to put in basement) I felt like I was back in the old arcade back in the day and thats when I realized what everybody on here is talking about when they talk about the
Madness. What a cool feeling and well worth the trip, the looks from my wife and mom, and the greenbacks spent on it. I have to give credit to this site and everyone who posts on here for motivating me to do this and being an invaluable source of information for a novice like me. Sorry about the length but I just wanted to share this.
