Time to get a little more active here. I've been going here for information for the past years. The Wiki is great !

I've been repairing and collecting arcade-games for the past 12 years. Been through 50 or so cabinets and several pinballs.

I work full time in Stockholm, Sweden with repairing vintage and new synthezisers at http://www.jam.se".
Several evenings of the week I also work with keeping a friend of mine's 25-25 operating pinballs and arcades in shape!

Chances are good that you have seen my work on Ebay as I've created several adapters for older style pcb's to Jamma (http://www.retro-games.com")

My current collection looks like this:
- Atari Space Duel upright European
- Harley Davidson L.A. riders "upright"
- Sega Naomi dedicated Cosmic Smash
- Twilight Zone Pinball
- Sega Astro Blaster
- Atari Road Blasters
- Sega 18 Wheeler with Jambo Safari currently playing Initial D 3
- Sega King of Route 66
- Sega Naomi universal upright 31 kHz horizontal currently running Soul Calibur III
- Sega Naomi universal upright, tri-sync WGd9200 vertical mainly running 31 kHz and Cabe Shooters.
- Atari Tempest cabaret
- Sega New Net City - vertical pure flat tri-sync
- Egret 3 with WGd9200 horizontal

Into the classic video-games from my c64-youth. Now mainly into Cave and various 31kHz shooters :)

Thanks for reading / Henrik, Blomman

Howdy all, i was recommended this forum by a friend of mine so i thought i would join up :-) Im on most retro gaming forums, (retrogamer, amibay, borders down, rllmuk etc) and I'm a forum moderator on retrocollect.com forum as well.

I own pretty much every system going and a couple of thousand games (all just in one big disorganised mess in the games room :-)

I only own one arcade cabinet and its a custom made mame cabinet but hopefully i can upgrade it for something a bit more dedicated (once i get a bigger house that is), i also own a a custom mvs in a sega saturn case and a hyper neo geo 64 too, so my arcade bits are slowly getting bigger :-)


Look forward to getting involved

Hi guys,
I'm Jaime from Connecticut. I've got a bunch of classic cabs (I guess you guys call them woodies, lol), but picked up a Blast City project over the summer, and finally found a control panel for it, so I'm ready to get started on it!

Hi,

i'm from Portugal and i own 3 cabs, one is a generic wood cab and 2x are sit down (converted) Naomi's.
I like all kind of Arcade games but have a preference for shmups.

I've been lurking for a while, because i like to read and follow many threads in here.

I decided to introduce myself and take this opportunity to ask a question:
I see that i don't have access to some areas on the forum, for example, i was just reading a thread about Sega marquee's that pointed to another therad (buy/sale area?) but it say's i'm not alowed. What ro i have to do?
