Went over and played some games tonight and thought I would post a few pics of Andys Arcade. Can't wait until he gets it all finished up. I'm new at using photobucket so i'm hoping this works.

Is that boy playing a Road Runner on the left side of the last pic? That game is really damn hard. Only seen one just one time but would be an awesome game to own.
 
Thanks for coming by and putting up some shots Kalan....I have been meaning to do this but have not got to it yet.

Yes the cade is close and I am planning to have it ready very soon. My goal is to have it ready by summer and have it open Friday and Saturday nights all summer long. I have about 6 or 7 more games to cram in there somehow and it seems like every time I fix one game 2 or 3 more go on the fritz.

Take last night...Yesterday afternoon I put a power supply in the Qbert (30V went and thank god it didnt take the sound board)

Pac Man won't boot....

balast goes in the Dragons Lair and blows the game fuse...One minute its working and then I turn around and its dead! ;)

Oh yea the right player on Karate Champ would not work right because I had it wired wrong after I tried to put OG sticks in it and figured out that they were wrong.....

always something!
 
Andy - been watching you picking up some nice games and seeing them all together is quite a sight.

Your line up is exactly what i would have (except - wheres the SW? Do you have one?) if i had that kind of room.

Looks like a great "experience".
 
Yeah... The stuff I still have in my garage and have to make room for.....

Star Wars, Paperboy, Joust, Crystal Castles, Dig Dug, Galaga mini, and the back end of the Enviro DOT.

I think thats all! ;)

Thanks for all the comments guys...If any of you want to come by this summer (or anytime) hit me up!

It just kinda worked out that way....At my old place I kinda had games all over the place (and I liked it). In this place I wanted to get some monitors up and run 80s music videos on them. That back wall where all the Nintendos are is where I will have 2 monitors side by side. They were the shortest cabs.

I changed this room around 10 times before I decided on this configuration. I had all the games against the wall and then moved them all out in the middle in rows.....and then back again....I had to make adjustments for the games like Xenophobe and Rampage that have players that stand off to the sides. Its been a royal pain in the ass. I think I now have it very close.
 
Beautiful collection Andy, its so nice to see them all restored like that. Its a shame they are sandwiched together - you can't see the awesome sideart :(
 
Looking shape Andy. Congrats on such a nice collection within a relatively short time frame.
 
Thanks again guys. With the wife out of town for the next few days I am getting a lot of things done.

So far today I have put new cpos on Tapper, Robotron, Jungle King, Tron, and Rampage. Going to also put a switcher in Wacko and might cap the monitor. Gonna also clean up my DK and add new t molding and all the cp stickers and cards. Ill put up some pics later if I get a chance.

If you are in the neighborhood (Garden Grove) hit me up. I will prob be here til midnight or so......

;)
