Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hi, I've been into video games almost my whole life (born in 86) and a competitive fighting game player for almost 13 years (Main series is SF and KOF, but I play almost everything in this genre). I ordered a candy cab in October because I thought it would be cool to finally have the arcade perfect versions of some of my favorite games. Having issues with the monitor atm, but hopefully I can work through those. Anyway, I joined to learn more about and enhance my enjoyment of the hobby.

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Wigz here. Like alot of people i started out as a lurker. Havent managed to snag a candy cab yet. Ive been looking for about 9 years but its pretty dry out here in Florida with the exception of the occasional seller on village bbs. I primarily play shmups and fighting games. Current favs are Blazing Star and SFA 2 that i play on a SF II repro bartop i built. Ill start the hunt for a Blast City again in a couple of months, so if you live in Fl or GA and see one let me know

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hey guys
I'm a random guy living in Spain, been messing around with consoles for a few years but recently felt the temptation to get into some arcade stuff so I got myself a couple PCBs and a supergun, and now I'm living the life
I'm a programmer by trade, have done some game development in the past but nothing noteworthy.
I don't know if I can own a full cab so looking for an xm-29 and/or maybe an arcade monitor (toshiba perfect flat from NNC).
We'll see how that goes
Cheers!

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Long time lurker, finally registered.
Trying to get my hands on my first cab, a Vewlix F. Already have a CPS2 Darksoft Multi and a CPS3 Darksoft Multi. I'm not a collector, but a player. So I love myself some patina'd beat up stuff that still works really well. No museum here.
Hope to learn a lot more by joining and hopefully buying/selling/trading in the marketplace.

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hello all!
New user from California USA. I have been playing with MAME and my trusty X-Arcade stick for the last 10 years or so.
This year I took the plunge into some legit arcade hardware after wanting a cabinet of my own since being a kid.
This year I picked up a Neo Geo Big Red and most recently picked up a Sega Blast City.
I am looking forward to learning a lot and getting help with the things I can't sort out on my own.

Hello. Looking forward to being part of this community. I have been on KLOV for awhile but I recently got around to restoring my Naomi Universal Cabinet and realized that this forum has a lot of good resources. Here a couple pics of my arcade:
