So there was a posting for a bunch of games stored in a warehouse a few weeks ago. I emailed the dude, went in and happen to be the first person to get to see everything. It's not really a raid but it is in a warehouse.

Turns out that the furniture warehouse place also owned Nickle City in San Jose.

These were games pulled from their floor mostly for monitor issues and other random issues. Their own tech doesn't do anything on their monitors as they used to just ship everything to Betson (who doesn't service monitors either)

I'm striking a deal to work in exchange for equipment. The only interesting games were Tech Romancer, D&D2 SOM, and Dimahoo. No dedicated other than a G-Loc upright (dynamo HS1) and this TMNT Pizza ticket machine (Pachinko for american kids)

All I can say is... Anyone looking for a 3KOAM K3 - "red Z-back" cause there are quite a few of them here. All JAMMA and nothing collectable. There were like 3 baseball games, 2 vert machines that we'll convert to 60:1s to put back into their store.

Anyone want to restore a Bezerk?

Cool. Nickle City was a fun spot in the late 90's. It got a bunch of Capcom games that I didn't see anywhere else (outside of SVGL/MGL). If I had cash I'd ask about Tech Romancer just as an oddity for my PCB collection. :p
