New unexpected addition to the Drewcade!! (note the exclamation marks "!!")
So a random spur of the moment search for "pinball" on CL turned up an estate sale in South Lake Tahoe. They said they had multiple machines so I figured I would grab my neighbors truck (since my friend is fixing my arcade hauler today) and our family travels to SLT for the day, just to check it out for shits and giggles. We arrive at the sale and we are greeted by a slew of brand new Stern pinballs marked at $3500 each. A little too rich for my blood. But I look to the other side of the room and I spy a game I never thought I would see in person. Punch Out!!!!! I asked the lady how much she wanted. "Oh, that's not for sale." My heart sank. But then she said "Well actually, let me call my husband." A few anxious seconds later she comes back and says "$300 firm. He doesn't want to sell it but he will anyway." DEAL!!!
It needs side art, a couple buttons and a cap kit for the top monitor, but other than that, it is a beautiful machine. Pictures coming soon. EDIT!! See pics!
