Ok I Think Its About That Time Now *My Official Arcade Gathering* 7/16/11

[Spunkmeyer]

I probably have one but I need to see a picture of one. I had a few cabarets, but dont remember what kind of coin bucket it has in it.

Attached are photos from the one in my Tempest... it has the same coin door as the Centipede (the game I want to put it in.)

Yeah I have one of those. http://www.flickr.com/photos/djdns/sets/72157626337631321/

Cool -- we'll play Let's Make A Deal next week...

 

[MilitiaMan]

Wish I could make it, but I am only up for one of those 10+ hour drives per year.

Awesome collection. You are very generous to open your dungeon up to everyone like you do!

[MajorHavoc]

Thanks for the invite but I can't make that date. :-(

Have fun everyone!

 

[DogP]

Sounds like fun... put me and my roommate down as a maybe. I'll be getting back from CAX in the middle of the week, and have a few other things to do that weekend... but I'd hate to miss the party. I'll post again as it gets closer.

Yeah I could do a lot with that much space. I wouldn't have any worries then. You can bring whatever you like. A Qbert Qubes machine would be nice for the host though!

I plan on being there - sounds like fun. Hey Daryl, have you ever tried to deal for the Qbert Qubes game they have at Hershey Park? They have that one and a lot of other nice titles there, but a lot of them are non-working. I wonder if they will ever 'liquidate' them?

 

[DavidW]

I'll probably be able to get by there for a little bit. May or may not have my son with me.

Looks Like I will make it but later in the day. I will have a pac cocktail in tow and room in the truck for one more!

I need a VS Nintendo PPU RP2C04-0004 among some other misc stuff.

Any interest in that Missile Command cocktail, Billy? I think we talked about it at Crabtowne a while back.

 

[Thomas]

I would love to have a MC cocktail. I am still waiting on the cp for my full size one. It's just not in the cards for me this weekend Kevin. I have my sites on something else man...

 

[Spunkmeyer]

Hey, no worries!

 

[dj dns]

Well Mario Bros has today and is on the truck to his new owner. I just brought down Dragons Lair & Space Ace to replace Phoenix & Mario bros to the game room for this weekend. Hope they are working right. Out of all the games I've owned these are the first laser disc games I've ever had. No sure how to play them, so I'm hoping someone that is coming to the gathering knows how to play.

July 16th 2011 starting from 12pm until.... I'm opening the dungeon to collectors/friends to come by and destroy my games (lol) play games / hang out and hopefully buy parts while they are here. My goal is to have everyone leave with something. I will have hundreds of parts for sale at great prices this day and also will have a paid raffle for a brand new 19" monitor. I will put together some other paid raffles along with some free raffles just to make things a little exciting around here. My place is not the biggest so I'm not sure how many people I can fit in here, but I promise to have everything off the floors so no one won't get hurt or laughed at falling over something. If you can make it please reply here because I guess I'll keep the tradition going and do the pizza thing. I'll PM all thats interested my address and phone number.

Here is my latest for sale thread and will be adding to it as I clean things up around here. Also please check out my wanted list at the bottom of the thread for possible trades/sales:

[Scucci]

Great... now I want to get another DL cabinet for Space Ace...

Anyways, I'll -try- to make it, but with how money is and the price of gas, I have a feeling it's going to end up being just another night of popcorn and whatever Demonoid has to offer.

 

[Spunkmeyer]

Darryl, I'll plan to bring some chips, soda, etc. with me on Saturday if you'd like me to. Although I completely understand if you don't want that stuff anywhere around your games!

Just let me know...

 

[dj dns]

Thats cool. My games are not museum pieces I'm not worried about that. If someone spills something on a game they would just have to buy it, thats all. (oh yeah forgot to mention buy it at a retail price) lol

I retail my DLs for 5 dollars, so I might spill on that. Oh and whirlwind pinballs are $10, so I might end up spilling on that to... Is that cool withya Darryl?


All jokes aside, see ya all tomorrow.
