Hello all, just registered and figured I'd poke around a bit. New to candy cabs (I had no idea they existed until this year!), and recently picked up a New Net City to tinker with, so a lot to learn!

Hey there. My name is Steven, and I'm an arcade collector living in Ontario, Canada. I've been in the hobby for quite a while, but mostly as a retro/pinball guy. I've always been curious about Japanese arcade games, though, and I hear you're the people to talk to about that. I'm hoping you guys will be able to steer me in the right direction as I add a candy cab or two to my collection -- and apparently I need an ashtray? What's that all about? :D Anyway, looking forward to getting to know you.

Hello from San Diego!

I'm a lifelong video game fan, particulary fighting games. I've finally got room to collect some machines and I'm on the lookout for candy cabs. I didnt grow up with them, but I love the sleek designs and the compact nature of them (while still having 29in screens!).

I recently picked up a Cyber Lead II with a Naomi in it (looking for CvS1 and MvC2 boards). And tomorrow should be getting an Impress.

Glad to here amongs my fellow arcade otakus!

Hey guys,

I've been lurking around for a while and finally got around to creating an account. I'm an old gaming enthusiast from Melbourne, Australia. Been in to emulation of all sorts and collecting arcade hardware for the last 20 odd years. Only just got my first candy cab (Blast City) 6 months ago and absolutely love it. I currently have it set up with a PC running Attract Mode and GroovyMAME and having a ton of fun with it! Very keen to get at least one more so I can have one for vertical games and the other for horizontal ones :)
