The Arcade ! (come talk about arcade games)

[captain_nintendo]

So I was wondering how many RF gen members own arcade machines besides me and tynstar ?

I have a Contra and a Robocop.
tynstar owns a very nice Ms. Pac-man.


Right now both of my machines are haveing power suply issues that could probably be solved with a little work , but when working they both look new.

My ultimate goal is to buy a Tournament Cyberball game (2072) the 4 player version !

What do you all own or aspire to own ?

My Ms PAc Man get played daily!!! That is the best game for all time.

I would like to get a Bubble Bobble coin op. Other then that  not to sure.

I had Shinobi, Assault and Space Invaders. I regret selling that Space Invaders. The cabinet was perfect.

I've got a sega mega tech cabinet (check my collection profile for pictures). I never really play on it, but it looks awesome. Although last week I noticed something is wrong with the screen. The colors are quite a lot lighter at a certain spot in the screen, as if someone shook it around. Very strange.

I used to have a supergun with a great controller and tekken 3, soul edge and a neo geo mvs with bust a move. That thing was quite awesome, but I sold it, because I had more use for the money. I kinda regret that now, but I still think it was the best choice.

I hope to some day own a cool racing game. Sega Rally Championship, Virtua Racing and Scud Race are at the top of the list. All in the most luxurious cabinet version of course. I just love the Monocoque (sp?) Virtua Racing has.

The closest thing I have to an arcade cabinet isn't really an arcade cabinet at all.  I just have an Evel Knieval (spelled wrong, probably) pinball machine.  Something with the board is a little screwy, so it's sometimes a pain to get it turned on.  Once it is, though, it works wonderfully.

Someday it would be cool to own one of the sit-down After Burner cabinets that rotate.  I've only actually seen one in person before, but it was one of the coolest cabinets I've ever seen.  Realistically, I'll probably never own one.

Long before I was born, my dad bought some sort of two-player table combat arcade machine.  He put it in a bar somewhere and tried to make money off of it, but apparently was disappointed with what it brought in for him.  So, he sold it not long after.  If only he had had a little more sense.

I have a Mr. Do! cabinet. It too needs a little work. The screen needs some adjustment and it could use a bit of cosmetic work.

I own a Super Mario Bros. machine. It's sweet, and finding all the differences between it and the NES version is a blast!

Well, I don't have any arcade cabs yet, but I do plan on eventually getting 2 or 3 regular stand ups, as well as one cocktail machine that has Galga or Ms. Pac-man on it.  As for what I want in the stand ups, I think it would be nice to have a Street Fighter 2 cab and then some older games like Robotron 2084.

These aren't my cabinets but rather an unrequested plug for tholly.  I was looking at his collection photos here:

tholly's collection

...and I noticed that he has a Vigilante cabinet, an MVS, and a Super Mario Bros. pinball machine.  Very cool stuff he has there.

[Arrrhalomynn]

Wow, Tholly has some great stuff.  I love this one:

[Lord Nepenthean]

Yeah, I wish I knew what that thing was though.

This is it.

[Lord Nepenthean]

So does it take NES cartridges or is the board just similar in architecture?

[Odonadon]

I've got the ol' Viper:



Used to be a Jailbreak cab (horrible game).

Wait a sec. Is that the Viper where you fly around and blow stuff up in a plane type thing?

Wait a sec. Is that the Viper where you fly around and blow stuff up in a plane type thing?

I am guessing that judging by the cabinet , it has to do with the Dodge Viper car ?
