I have been collecting for years now and I have always been curious what other collectors would think about my games. I would also like to read about other collector's collections. Sort of like a Show and Tell area.

For example, I have 25 of my own games and I can write a little short description of whatever comes to mind. Maybe snap a picture of the front and another of the inside of the cab. Any idea on how this would be done?

I think a never ending thread on 25 or more games would be way too long. None of my games are restoration level either, I just made them work again. At the same time, I would like see how, say my Altered Beast, would be received. Is it a C- level conversion? Does anyone care that it came from an empty cab?

Thoughts?
 
I don't think this forum is robust enough without making this really muddy
 
The moderators would never go for that. It would be a powder keg of abrasive personalities and radical narratives on the level of the politics and religion subforum.

Better idea: Tinder for Arcade Games.
 
I think your collection is awesome, sight unseen!

..unless it has a zaxxon in it, then I'm going to lose my shit. :D
 
Personally I've always thought that your VAPS should be extended to allow for pictures and more fields to store tidbits about the game such has repair history, where you got it from, purchase price, etc. Then at any given point people who like to browse collections can do so and gawk at your shit.

Right now if I understand it correctly, you just document what you have and the serial numbers right?
 
Though, it would be pretty great to see a detailed backstory of each game in someones collection of 50+ games. With every one of the games being the exact same title. As some sort of satire.
