Haha! It was one of those moments she asked what i wanted, and i showed her 3 days before christmas, figuring it was too expensive, and seeing on amazon that it wouldnt be here in time for christmas, i was fairly certain she wouldnt do it, she managed to get one and have it overnighted, lol! Complete shocker:D
 
I was pretty happy when my wife got me a Defender for Christmas.

Sweet arcade you have going there. Defender is a great game.

Nice. You'll love it. I just got mine a few days ago. Repaired and ARII board and it made quick work of the de-soldering.

Congrats
 
Look carefully. The picture was taken one parking lot over with a road inbetween, not McDonalds :) .

With the trailer and maybe a full parking lot, you could have run across the street. Anyway, I was just having fun.
 
She got you that and you took her to McDonalds?

Looks to me like McD's is across the street or beside whatever parking lot they are in.

On the main topic, the wife and I get along very well when it comes to gaming. She's actually very excited about getting our first pinball machine. We've been wanting our own since about 2015, and just this year we finally bought our first home and just need to finance the machine now. Space to put it and support of the wife are no problem.
 
My wife got me a membership to The Game Preserve and a cool cup from there(an RTIC), we went really low key this year and while she got me some other goodies this was the most thoughtful. We have been living on the other side of Houston for the last couple years so a membership didn't make sense but now that we live five minutes from the GP I visit more often and now will be very often. To make it better I had absolutely no idea she had done this for me and apparently did it just Saturday.

Got the AR Jedi Challenges. I didn't even know this existed. It is pretty cool to finally hold a light saber that actually ignites!!!!
 
My wife got me a high score save kit for Donkey Kong from mikes arcade.com. She said she had no idea what she was buying but had overheard our conversations, so she took a chance. Kinda funny, because I bought her a part for her sewing machine and called it a shoe when I asked for it in the store but it's really called a foot. At least we have a passing interest in each others hobbies.
 
My wife let other family members buy things from a list I gave her so they had it easy. I still credit her though. :) With the families divided up I'll likely get some stuff today and more Saturday. I asked for Domio Man side art and marquee from This Old Game and Q*Bert side art from Arcade Shop. I feel like there may be a few smaller arcade things I asked for. I just have to be patient to find out haha.
