That's what I was thinking. Not only a ton of rare cabs and games, but everything looks so immaculate.

Stunning effort!

One thing @Rocco, next time you record a walk through, download DSLR Camera*, set the shutter speed to 60 and use that.

*for iPhone, dunno the best Android equivalent.

Open Camera for Android lets you pick the right fps.

Absolutely outstanding. I wish you all the best.

A Blast City deal just fell through for me (busted chassis and PSU during its check before sale to me) and I would be a daily patron to your lovely arcade if I were close enough.

Zaragoza to here is 40 minutes by car or train (direct trains as well ) and once in the station is a 15 minutes walk to Mikado

Well as some of you already know , I’m a farmer, I’ve 2 kids (5 and 6 years old) and in my free time I’ve Mikado as a hobby .

I have had many problems with my wife many times :lol: :lol: , this is a very time consuming hobby, more when you want to have everything running perfectly, games well suited etc

This is infinite ....

I’ll do my best to survive and I hope a better 2021 . Can’t be worse I guess .

I wait some of you here for the international grand opening once is re-organised again 😋
