Hi Guys

Just wanted to say hi, I live in Western Australia in a Place called Perth

My arcade interest is mainly in old Vector Games. I have Asteroids x2 , battlezone, am going to build a Zektor cab using an Amplifone Monitor.

I have also built 4 machines before, and are restoring several others.

Love Jamma / classic Cabs, as they remind me of the younger years

Thanks for reading, hope to hear from some of you over there.

Regards Dez

Welcome to the madness! It sounds like you already have a decent start on your collection.

I've always wanted to visit Australia, in particular Sydney and the Great Barrier Reef.

Welcome! :D

Perth is a game haven, I have sent shipped dozens of games and parts there. Sold one guy 5 pallets of PCB's alone.
 
Welcome to KLOV!

Not many vectors around down here, but seems to be a lot of huge lots of 80's Arcade machines springing up from deep dark warehouses lately
 
Welcome to the boards!! Austrailia is one place I definitely want to visit some day.

And yes... Some of us think 'Men at Work' was an awesome group. ;)

If we're playing the Oz related music quote game...
"yo Perth, can my homeboy tell yall where the f**k he from?"

Never a bad thing to have machines coming out of warehouses, I wish I had that happening around here. :) Welcome to the addiction, we definitely have members in Oz, hopefully they can hook you up with parts/whatever and you can give them a lead on some of those warehouses if they don't know of 'em already. :)

Welcome to the madness. Vector machines are a very specific form of this illness (one that I have tried to avoid so far, other than a Battlezone). BUt if you need access to some of the best people to get them (and keep them) running, yoou found the right place.

As many others have said, OZ is on my list of places to go, I just need to stop spending money on boards and parts and machines and I'm so there.
