Life happens sale,wellington ohio.space invaders,asteroids,centipede

Hey folks,my baby boy showed up 6 weeks early and caught me way off guard.He will be spending at least 2 weeks in cleveland metro hospital.I Plan on visiting him daily.I will miss some work and gas and parking are sure to cost a few bucks.Anyways,i'm not where i wanted to be financially when he arrived.So im offering up my space invaders cocktail,centipede and asteroids.pics or it didn't happen right?




Space invaders cocktail.It has the multi kit installed and powers up and plays.All sounds work.When you turn it on it plays fine,as it warms up the monitor develops a shake,within like 3 minutes it is all warmed up and plays great.I suspect the can cap and have ordered the individual replacements,they go with it.The monitor has been capped aside from that.It has a credit button next to the coin door,i figured the hole or any repair would look worse than the button,so it stayed.Coin door has no lock,and i have no keys for the back door lock,but it is unlocked.New underlay for the top glass.The cpo's were replaced but i blew it as i didn't realize that you could see the painted on ones through the new ones.It has the green,yellow and red plastic sheet on top of monitor.Some of the pixles are missing on the high score,see pics.I'd like to see $225 out of it.$$$SOLD PENDING PAYMENT

Centipede...SOLD..Nice bright monitor with some burn in.The cab is in pretty decent condition and would look good all cleaned up,side art has some scratches but not bad .It fires up and plays .The trackball needs rollers.Yea i know there is some tape in one of the pictures,it had a lockbar hole i patched and sanded and taped it off to paint it,It's gone now.You can still sort of see where the hole was.I'd like to see $SOLD$ for it.

Asteroids..This plays great and has a beautiful picture..it is by far my nicest game.It is unmolested and original.I'd still like to see $SOLD$$ out of it

Haha yea,no worries there,i will still have the 60-1 to keep me occupied even though i prefer dedicated cabs.Frogger and 3 pins,and the crazy climber project that i'll probably have made into a casket so they can bury me in it.I'm not in dire need ,just not comfortable.Well i was kinda comfortable,but did ya ever have one of those drug addicted ex girlfriends that gets a shitload of parking tickets in your car and have the city put a hold on you renewing your plates till their paid lol.Yea that hit me this week too.Plates,license,,then add 200 bucks in tickets from dumbo and i'm like wow things are gonna be tight,then the lil booger decided he wanted out and made a dramatic 3 hospital 5 day entrance..i tell ya,it has been a trying week for us here.
Thanks for the kind words guys,i know i had a shitty week but the end result is just amazing and worth many more shitty weeks than what i went through to get him.Hey donny,you will meet him someday,this new tax deduction i got will be spent at your place i'm sure lol.Maybe i'll buy a gutted pin and make a crib out of it lol.He is so tiny now,4 pounds 9 ounces i could use a baby pac for a crib.That would be cool and the future mother in law would flip,,,and that my friends is priceless :)
 
No worries - 4lbs 9 ounces is just fine. Preemies are taken well care of now-a-days - mine spent 6 weeks in NICU.

Congrats!
 
Good luck with your baby! I can relate somewhat to your situation: My wife and I gave birth to a boy a few years ago.. and he surprised us by arriving six weeks early. Completely caught us off guard. And he spent about a week in the NICU before we could bring him home. But everything turned out fine and he is now a happy, healthy 2.5 year old (who already is interested in my arcade games). So you will get through this tough time. Just hang in there. (actually.. we just gave birth to our second baby 4 days ago! This time we had a girl, and she arrived on time.. no surprises this time!)

Wow,6 weeks would kill me,just leaving today with my empty car seat ripped my heart out.But yea,they are amazing there,they say they see 1 pounders in there as early as 23 weeks and they pull em through.

Its funny that you say that....I do have a empty pinball cab...Its a Old Bobby Orr....Anyways, i have a bunch of boys stuff over here, if your interested..Were done having kids...I MEAN DONE> Your Welcome to any of it. My doors always opened to good arcade guys
 
Congratulations on a new "high score"
Jeff
LOL,good one jeff,it has been an hour since i read it and i'm still thinking about it and laughing.If he is my high score,then all those folks in the delivery room must be my high score save kit.There were like 15 people in there,that's a guess,but it was a large room and packed.They had a specialist in there for any situation that presented itself,just amazing.I'm glad i didn't get multi-ball lol, i would be a real mess now lol.
Thanks for the laugh

You have hinted that you would like my Baby Pacman but I did not think that you would go to this extreme to get it! Congratulations on your new son. Please send my best wishes to Mom on a job well done. Do you have a name picked out yet! We could have a contest on KLOV, "name that baby"! I could just imagine the suggestions, Asteroids.....Raiden....Tetris....Tempest, you get the idea.

Come on man - it'd need to be a "traditional" name, not something crazy.

You know, Mario, Luigi, Tron :)
 
Congratulations on the new addition to the arcade (babies make great games, since they don't come with a manual you just keep burning through money until you learn how they work :D).

Insert the obligatory, "I wish you were closer comment" here.

Haha ron,your tryin to get me in trouble with my future other half.No arcade names for the baby,i just don't think she would find it amusing.We named him christopher edward,christopher after her father who passed when she was 2,and sticking with the honor thy father theme,edward is my dads middle name and i'm sure he doesn't have too many years left,so it seemed fitting.
I really don't want to ebay or craigslist these things guys,so talk to me lol.When i say i don't want to ebay or craigslist,i mean that's a last resort.Craigslist has too many headaches and ebay sucks unless you are selling small stuff that can have a nationwide market.I could be easily persuaded to take anything crazy climber related as partial trade lol.Yea it cuts into the cash but if it makes a deal happen i'd go with it.My crazy climber project consists of 2 boardsets and big dreams :)
Thanks to all for the well wishes and congrats and a special thanks to scaboo4u.
 
When I have kids, they will be named Pooka and Fygar. :D JK. Those aren't bad names for pets, though. In fact, one of my dogs names is Mooka (close) -- short for Moo Cow cuz she looks like a little cow.
