HOLY CRAP! That "room" looks like an ARCADE STORE! That Missile Command in the corner looked real interesting, is that a Spanish "Sonic" version?
The endless row of pins was ridiculus and then you have a Hologram Time Traveller??! YIKES!
I imagine your collection is insured...or it should be!
Actually its just a standard missle command cockpit, the the lighting is so poor in that video I can understand how it doesn't show up properly. a few tips that I can tell to start up collectors:
1) be nice and don't burn your bridges, its a small number of people in this hobby, you will be dealing with the same people over and over.
2) don't be quick to sell. Its usually easier to make the cash, than it is to re-find a game.
3) figure out what you want. This is a big one. The hobby is much more rewarding if you just add what you want than to constantly flip big heavy games.
4) be patient - Every game you ever wanted will usually pass under your nose more than once. For me, dragons' lair was one that passed by me 3 times before I had the cash to actually buy one.
5) don't overload with projects. Be realistic on what you can fix and what you can't. Broken games are no fun to play.
6) don't have too high of standards. These games are 30 years old and have plenty of damage from being moved around. Accept this fact and don't worry about them looking like they came straight from the factory. Enjoy that you have something from an 80's arcade (graffitti and all)
7) Accept the machines for what they are. They will breakdown. If you want a warranty, then you are in the wrong hobby. Go by an xbox or ps3 with a service contract and play games worry free.
Well thats just a few tips from me.
