So What Arcade Project Will You NOT Finish In 2018?

Yeah, we all know that project you started in 2016, or before, didn't get finished in 2017...

And now here we are and it's 2018. :D

So which arcade project will you most likely NOT finish this year?

:eek:
 
None. I only have two games left to get ready for the game room, and if they don't make it in there by summer, I am going to get rid of them.

None. I have 10-20 projects all the time, and keep adding 10-20 more every year. :)

 
I probably won't finish many of them.

I'll be lucky to get the ones that are in better shape all going, never mind Kickman, Wizard of Wor, Space Invaders, Defender, and a few things built out into empty cabs.

Nor am I likely to get down to work on Quantum and Major Havoc repro PCBs :-(.

Nor the 50+ PCB boards to test/fix/sell/etc.

But I'll do my best to have fun doing the ones I do get to :) !!!

Maybe I'll actually play some of them this year :) (beyond when testing a repaired PCB :) )
 
Didnt finish my nintendo super system restore but just sent my board off for repair so it will be done this year
 
I'm pretty sure this guy isn't going to get finished. I need to build a new cab for starters.

1) Ball bowler and puck bowler from the 1960's
2) Build out of my arcade space
3) Monitor repairs
 
You could change the title of the thread to 2016 and it would still apply. I have everything I need to restore this Elevator Action and Track & Field and still haven't finished them...

I really hope to be 100% out of the hobby by the end of 2018. But I don't think it's going to be possible to get everything cleared out in a year.
 
Sinistar upright which is sad because I got a new bezel, side art, original marquee, control panel finished, no burn CRT already vertically mounted, coin door restored, and a JROK board.

Maybe I will finish it, unless someone wants to trade me for a nice working Asteroids Deluxe.
 
Learning to properly use the Fluke 9010a and 6502 pod; and using it to fix some boards.

However, am hoping to have the opportunity to take a block of leave (around 5-6 weeks) at the beginning of summer, and use it to take the first real vacation in years and just dive into getting things done.

Cant believe you want to grow up?!! :)
So.... like Out-Out; or just keep a couple games and no new projects, check the forums once a month, etc...
