You start with 1, next thing you know you have over 10 with an unhappy wife.

I can say yes to nearly all of the above, except the can. I did have one in the kitchen, and well as that was a repair, it took up half the kitchen!!

Then I would recommend not buying any. They all fail at one time or another.

Well, we just celebrated our 10th anniversary (the slot machine that started it all was her present a month ago) and my wife is 15 years younger than me, so I'm lucky enough that she thinks the games are "cool". let's hope it stays that way.

Great! NEVER underappreciate a good woman.

You must realize something...These games are 20 to 30 years old and need some much need TLC. Many have been just sitting around collecting quarters and not much else. Many of the original owners did not want to spend money on them...They were only intrested in collecting money.

Welcome, fellow Phoenician! You just missed CAX, what's up with that???

I just bought an 8-in-1 mod/daughterboard from Shilmover for my Pac, so it won't be for sale any time soon. Sorry. Turns it into a Pac / Ms. Pac / other similar games. You might think about going that route...? (To save space)

 

[kb0jjn]

Welcome and hope to see you around the fourms.

Welcome Robert! You have only scratched the surface.

Off too a good start... I think the year mark is usually the litmus test.

I started collecting when I joined this site in Feb OF THIS YEAR and I now have 12 games and a crap load of parts for future builds. Addiction is an understatement.

Why would you need 50 boards ?

You don't need any of this. You want it.
