Man surprises WIFE with Galaga machine!

That's really cool!

My wife reacted similarly when I gave her a fully restored Burgertime upright for Christmas this year. I spent a lot of time working on it; that was her favorite game and she'd been asking me to find one for her for months. I kept telling her it was very hard to find, but I'd keep looking. I found one that needed work, kept it in my friend's garage until it was decent enough to bring to my house and hide in the arcade room while I finished it the rest of the way. She wondered why she wasn't allowed in the arcade room from November until Christmas; I just told her I needed the space to hide her Christmas presents in there...she had no idea...
 
I surprised my Mom with a Galaxian for her birthday. The reaction was similar. That was 8 years ago, she still plays it, too.
 
I got my wife a Galaga that had to be fixed up because she says she loves Galaga. She's played it once (and I had to make her play it) about a month after I got it for her. So now it sits in the garage and no one plays it...been like that for 7 months now...
