Alec, those cabs look brand new
Did you have them all resprayed?Home arcade pics.
Davek, that looks a little bit like heaven - is it in a basement? It's kitted out beautifully (love the posters - I believe it was yourself who did a little guide I read somewhere for custom framing on the Galuda 2?)

American arcade manufacturer, Mylstar, used fresnel lens on their sitdown Mach1 laserdisc arcade cabinets back in 1984. Quite dramatic when playing it back in the day. ^_~emphatic wrote:Cool. I have a 20" monitor in one of my cabs. Perhaps it's time to dust of my fresnel lense for that one and bump it up to a 25".dpful wrote:It's a 25" monitor. The lens is almost right in front of it, and brings it maybe to 29 or 30", but the real purpose of the lens is to tip the monitor forward. It fit in the cab a little too angled, and amazingly enough, the lens makes it appear perfectly tipped up. It also amazingly hides all sorts of garbage: the filtering of MAME ran on a medium res monitor, geometry that's a little bad on one side. It looks very organic and is fun to play on.

Thanks. There are no basements in California, but it is my garage, so close enough.Skykid wrote:Davek, that looks a little bit like heaven - is it in a basement?

And yes, I did write a blog post on how to frame japanese B1 (and larger) posters cheaply.Safe to assume there are sentry guns on the outside guarding a half mile radius?Dave_K. wrote: There are no basements in California, but it is my garage, so close enough.

Hint: Get a job that pays better than minimum wage. Then you can go out and splurge to your heart's desire on them arcade PCBs and candy cabs. ^_~Pixel_Outlaw wrote:Those are some freaking lucky babies in the first few pics.
I just hope they don't think the sticks are lollipops.
Great stuff guys. How do you afford all this?
Well, I've finally taken pictures of my basement which is a total mess as you will see. First up we have the pinball machines. A broken Whirlwind, one of the transistors is out and that killed the flippers, and the warhorse Rollergames. Bought that one off of Ebay and have never had a problem with it in over 5 years.
Next up is a pile of PCB's
Another pile of PCB's. I always forget I have this box of games until I look at my list of games.
Bookshelf of PCB's and other bullshit
more PCB's
Finally, some cabinets to show. We have an Astro City and a Neo Geo 4 slot currently running Metal Slug 3, Strikers 1945 Plus, Zupapa, and Baseball Stars 2
Next up is the mythical Sega Aero Table. I have Aurail setup inside of it currently.
Finally another pile of shame. Not too sure what all is back here. I do know some weirdo shit like Dynamite Duke, Super High Impact Football, Quartet 2, and Empire City 1931 are somewhere on this shelf.
Not picture is a Sega Aero City cabinet at Joe T.'s house. He lives across the street from me. Might have some updating to do on this as there is a SuperAuctions in town on Saturday and I just got a 0% APR for 1 year Credit Card, so game on!
