Well, after a few months of enjoyment- my red tent needs to go :004_scry:

My small game room, which I've slowly been adding "keepers" to, just doesn't have the room. This is a FABULOUS machine and I hate to offer it up, but it just doesn't look right back in the gayrage.

Serial #75 with Excitebike and Super Mario Bros. installed. Monitors have some vs. RBI burn but not too bad. NEW repro plexi installed with a NOS Excitebike card and high-res repro SMB card.

So, I'd love to trade it for a VS. Upright or a PC-10 (single monitor) or something else... PM me with what you have. Here are a few pics:

I know guys :( I've been in Google SketchUp all evening trying different configurations to be able to keep this thing, but a 11 x 12 finished game room just can't hold this work of art. I can't let it get demoted to the gayrage either. I just keep looking at it and saying, "It's not you, it's me."
 
Ok. Take a deep breath, Jon. We're all friends here. Think. Ponder. Be patient.

Ask yourself: "What would Eseyo1, do?"

Haha. Don't do it Jon! I almost did and it just didn't feel right. It does take up a lot of space but find a place for it outside the gameroom. I'm adding another cab this weekend and it's moving to the garage. Like Matt said, take a moment to think about this. :D

Put it in your living room, that's what kerri369 did
 
Thanks Jess! I'll keep rearranging Google SketchUp- maybe there is one configuration that I haven't tried. :(

Yeah, the only configuration that worked for me inside was having it in the center of the room adjacent to a square coffee table. Coincidentally, they are about the same length so it works out sort of nice. Even then, it's a little cramped. Granted, I have maybe a 10'X12' space to work with.

Though, with the row soon-to-be complete, I'll really need the space and, like your wife, my wife doesn't like it sticking out like a sore thumb. So into the garage it goes against the wall next to the doorway. Nevertheless, I hope you can keep it though I know sometimes you have to sacrifice.

Yeah, I just hate to have it in the gayrage with all of my projects and a few working games... we'll see!
