I am new here and wanted to introduce myself
I am collecting since 30 years Nintendo Games and Merchandising. Now I am turning to arcade games therefore I bought one Taito Egret 2 from Shadaloo.eu and looking for good vertical Bullet-Hell PCBs
He everyone! I am new to this forum and I looking to get into collecting arcade machines again. My first machine was a dedicated Killer Instinct cab many years ago, it was soo cool!
I am not looking to get a couple Vewlix units. If anyone knows someone on the east coast looking to sell a REAL Vewlix not a knockoff, please let me know!!
a friend of mine showed me this forum and looked like my kind of place
I'm living in Edinburgh, got a few games in my collection and try to collect all the shmups on saturn (yes including that freaking hyper duel that cost me a liver...). I use to have an arcade cabinet 10 years ago but had to sold it cause space etc.. but that's something I'm looking forward to get again in a (near) future.
I'm an video game and arcade collector with 10 arcades currently. I'm currently repairing my Time Crisis 3 DX, which is what brought me to this site! I have a few questions that I'll be posting soon.
Looking forward to blend in with the community on here!

I'm David,
I'm just be back to France after 4 years in Tokyo.
I discover really the Arcade in Japan and now I'm crazy about it.
I'm really curious about your forum and he looks great.
Thanks all
Sounds like you used your Time in Japan wisely!!
<trk>:I remember catching a big fat one and my friend said "throw it back in, that one already tastes like wood"
Hi everyone! I'm Daniel from Bordeaux, France. I fell into video games when I first saw aladdin move at the press of a button on a megadrive gamepad and fell into arcade and shmups in particaul when I discovered donpachi and then dodonpachi around 10 years ago. I became a game programmer and ended up programming two shoot'em ups, Shogun rise of the renegade on mobiles and Pawarumi on Steam recently.
I still hope I'll have the chance to buy an egret2 someday, with ketsui, ssf2x and metal slug.
I am french, I live in Canada , I am currently selling my entire Saturn Japanese collection and I plan to buy a candy cabinet in the next 12 months. Love japan, been there 3 times over the past 18 months. Started video games on the NES in the mid 80s and still gaming hard until now.
Hello! I live in Los Angeles, and I started getting into arcade machines last year. I just finished fixing up a Neo Geo 4 Slot Big Red, and I just got an Aero City yesterday. Third Strike is my favorite game!
New arcade collector from Montreal, Canada.
I've scarted to buy back some classic games I used to love growing up in the subburbs. I got some soldering equipment and now in the process of restoring a CPS1 Final Fight board, some bad EPROMs, some bad connections on the C-Board, ordered some parts.
If you guys never went to ArcadeMTL downtown, it's a cool spot to go hang and play great games !
Kopo from Belgium here, started 10 years ago refurbishing old arcade cabinets and turning them into jamma multicart/ mame machines. Just recently found an old hyperspin drive and found some time again to game. Looking for a nice vewlix cabinet and wanting to learn more about the original hardware.
Hello there! I'm Brian from Chicago. I just picked up my second arcade game (a Tatio Groove Coaster 3). I have no idea what the heck it is saying most of the time, but it sure is fun! My other game is a Nintendo R-Type, which I managed to snag for free a few years ago out of someone's garage.
Besides arcade games, I also love pinball. I enjoy buying them, fixing them up, modding them, and most of all, playing them.
