Beautiful stuff.

This is off topic methinks.

(mod edit - you are correct on all counts /nZ)

Awesome

That's a full blown Arcade , not a game room

Looks cool, do you have many newer arcade games? I don't know many old games, but yours look like they're just from the 80s.

I guess it was off topic, Whooops, sorry!

The cabinet behind the Egret II is a NCC.

Similar thread here, but I guess show your cabinet vs show your gameroom is sufficiently different.

My garage circa 2009. More recent videos from Arusan and Ilmrm during a 2011 shmupmeet. Since then I've added a Space Duel vector cab and RedStorm LCD cab.

Pretty awesome garage. You should put a mirror on one side to make the room look huge.

Here is a link to some video's of my collection and stuff:

By the looks of my current project list, my office won't be clean/organized enough for such show and tell until sometime next year

For exidy,

Your private gameroom reminds me of how it was at the local arcades back in the early 1980s and into the early 1990s. Just add a cool slim model money changer machine and you're all set. One local arcade by the name of Cals-R-Cade had some cool early 1980s arcade posters hanging close to the ceiling including a rare Funai's Interstellar LD arcade game promo poster (circa 1984) with the cool tagline: 3, 2, 1, Blast Off to Interstellar Adventures + some cool screenshots of actual gameplay with a cool CG polygonal mountain landscape in the background. Haven't seen such an Interstellar poster since then.

Do you have any slick LD arcade games as well? My local Chuck E. Cheese's had a rare deluxe sitdown cabinet of Interstellar that accepted two tokens per credit back in March of 1984. Just to watch the opening intro was awesome. Of course, it's more common to see such an upright cabinet version of Interstellar these days.

Mine is still a work in progress (still need to hang shelves and art), but here is my latest progress.

Now I need to find where to store this excess junk

Nice setup!

I have that IKEA couch in my office. It completely wrecks my back after about 2 minutes of sitting in it.

Oh yeah, it's certainly not for lounging, but it is the best option for that space!

Cool to see that you were in the 'cades back in the day.
I actually just recently picked up an interstellar arcade game fully working.

Dedicated cab... nice.

Mine is still a work in progress

Hey, you got the basics. Cab for verts. TV for horis. Couch for love making.

exidy · Post by **exidy** » Fri Feb 01, 2013 3:55 am

Interestingly enough. I use to play Gain Ground in the local Town N Country (like 7-11) back when it was new.

I bought this Gain Ground in 1999 and plan on never selling it.
Told my wife she might have to bury me inside

How much did you pay for it? Are you any good at it? I have Crackdown here, but I think I'm about to let it go. It's painful... but not nearly as painful as Gain Ground. I have a the super play DVD of both games. Pretty sick. Same player and all.
