Hi Everyone! Longtime lurker new poster - hoping to communicate in the community and maybe track down some parts for my machines!

The machines I own:
Sega Star Wars Trilogy Upright
Sega House of the Dead
Sega Frogger
Sega Afterburner II
Nintendo Mario Bros Widebody
Atari Tetris (Crystal Castles Cab converted by an operator circa late 80s)
Leland Super Offroad
Bally Baby Pacman
Midway Terminator 2
Namco Lucky & Wild

I just finished my arcade in my house (midlife crisis gift to myself) I attached a couple pictures.

Happy to report all 10 of my machines are currently functioning and playable! Things I want to start to pick at (most of which I don't have the skills to tackle myself - some I do):

1) My Star wars joystick is worn - joystick needs to be rebuilt - my dream would be to find a NOS joystick
2) Frogger needs a cap-kit, monitor has bleed
3) Super Offroad needs a new batter soldered on the board, would LOVE to get my hands on a board with the Track Pak
4) Baby pacman eventually needs a cap kit, I don't know anything about working on pinball machines so would like to get it shopped someday
5) Terminator the right gun wants to keep burning out the shaker, not sure if an issue with the gun or the gun board. Right gun also needs new pots it's sticky with the aiming
6) Lucky and wild has some artifacts on the screen when there explosions.... maybe a board issue - wouldn't mind picking up a 2nd board if I can find one that is tested and working 100%

Happy to be part of the community!

Congrats and welcome to the madness!

Perhaps you can update your profile with your location?

Haha where do you update location? I don't see it when I click my account details
 
For some people its Harley Davidsons and red Corvettes, and for others it's a bunch of refrigerator sized games that blow up when you look at them wrong. Awesome yours are all working...... at the moment.... :)

Welcome!
 
Cheers from phoenixville! Love the arcade.

I'm a newbie to a lot of this stuff but I have NBA jam, Blitz, as well as a mame cabinet. Looks awesome man!
 
Welcome to the community! I'm in Gilbertsville, just a bit north of you.

If you ever are looking to unload House of the Dead, let me know. I'm looking to downsize some of my collection and add a House of the Dead.
 
Where outside of Philly? Nice collection man. Just made my first post in this new members area too! I'm in West Philly.
