I love your Arcade! I restored Mario Bros. conversion cab. But i plan on restoring more. Honestly i miss the old Arcades. They don't even bring arcades to the County fairs anymore???Which really sucks!! Arcades are just not around anymore,that much. I took my kids to Chuck-e-Cheese they're game choices were horrible there as well. All new crap.I love the old stuff.Maybe Arcades can make a comeback???Maybe its just me ,but i grow tired of Xbox 360 and Ps3 WAYYY to much waiting for updates d/loads
The one cab I ever owned was NARC which was let go for FREE b/c of storage cost and the monitor went out after being sold to a friend but that was nearly 10 years ago before I knew 10% of what I know now b/c of dudes like blkdog7, gamester81, jumblejunkie, lukemorse1 & Retro Gaming Roundup, ETC!
Wow! Look at all those monitors... Damn raster CRTs they are disappearing faster than we breathe the earth's air. I 100% salute a CRT museum somewhere b/c one of these days EVERYTHING will be digital!
I feel the same way about the original artwork. If it's mostly there I leave it alone. Just think How many people have seen or touched that vintage artwork!
That Fast Break game looks really cool! I never saw one of those until now. And just like always, your underground arcade never, ever, ceases to impress me! One thing I noticed, though - your Jungle King seems to have a Jungle Hunt board in it. I'd know the plith helmeted character anywhere. Oh, and I happen to love Turbo! Back in the early 2000s, when the local mall still had an arcade, it was the one game I would play every time I went in.
Awesome vid Jon. Just want to say thanks, cause you're the person that inspired me to start collection Arcade Games. I am going to be picking up my 5th game tonight; a Centipede. And awesome arcade!
You've got one heck of a classic arcade going on, great video. Sega Turbo rocks by the way, I make sure to put some play on the machine at Fun Spot every time I'm there. All your cabs are in such nice shape, props for restoring them to original condition.
Damn it, you need your own reality show. Big Bang Theory meets Hoarders. It'd be awesome. Now show yourself on camera already! It's driving me crazy not knowing what you look like. Also, how about an interview with your wife and what she thinks about all this? That's the real story, here. Ha.
hey john i see u have a bunch of guitars are u a musician?? i am..i play the keys.. great videos man ur voice sound like a morning radio DJ ,, so full of energy keep up trhe good work
@corvorig I am a musician! Check out my band by googling "The Kill Screens". Our CD is on iTunes and Amazon. The album is called "Science Fiction Movie".
@blkdog7 Thanks man! Hey do you know if it's as simple as plugging these into the existing hardware, or does it require additional work to hook up and power the lamp?
Also: DISCS OF TRON!!!! That'll look really nice in the basement! Awesome additions man! Your collection is just really, really chock full of quality games. Great video!
Wow, I had no idea you had a Sega Turbo! Just went to a classic arcade with friends and a friend of mine had a lot of fun with this one solely because of how ridiculous the game switches maps and courses and whatnot. So hard to break 15,000!
