It's unfortunate that 75% of those games I would play once and never look at again.

I saw a machine like this a couple of years back, but it had 50 or so games on it. Good and rare ones, too. Like Ghouls and Ghosts, Double Dragon, the Mega Man fighting games from Japan, etc. Can't remember the proper name of the system, though.

What's this thing cost?

I bought a Godzilla slot machine a few years ago and it was the greatest thing ever until the novelty wore off and it became an eyesore. Now it's in my attic.

Do you know about MAME?

Muliple arcade machine emulator?


All those games ROMS and thousands more are easily emulated on a PC these days.

I had the Final Fight arcade once but had to ditch it when I moved. If I could ever get my hands on the Killer Instinct 2 arcade though I still would. Mame or no mame sometimes there's nothing like the real thing :buttrock:

Around 3k...not too sure if it's really worth it but not alot of things we really talk about in this forum are..:)

Oh agreed!

I have an Atari Race Drivin' game. Love the force feedback, clutch, stick. Just a great simulator really.

Also have two pinball machines.

No way you can emulate pinball real world physics.

I had this in my display room not too long ago, it`s powered by a modified xbox with a 300gb hard drive. Though I had to take it down recently to make room for my statues :bawling:
