Hey Hjo Lets Go!
I am a long time member of the Swedish Arcade community, got my first cabinet back in 2004 ( a generic wooden JK F3)! Since then I have been collecting on and off but the last decade I have invested more and more time (and money) in the hobby and is now sitting with a basement Arcade and a small PCB collection.

I like the games from 1980-86 the most and have no love for shmups, beat em ups or 1v1 fighters.

I only go for the real deal when it comes to Arcade games, no mame, no multis, No bootlegs!

Hope I will like it here and that you are kind to me, in not I will crawl back under the rock I came from!

Hey I'm new here (well I signed up like 10 years ago but I imagine my account got purged from inactivity), looking to get a valuation and sell my naomi candy cabinet and a load of fighting game related boards and systems as I'm moving and won't have space soon.

Hi folks
I am from Switzerland, I am 39 years old and I like to hold very hard balls very firmly and exclusively with my left hand. After the ball should ideally follow a metal rod... :-)
I have 2 Royal Video, a SNK Kural 25, a Jaleco Poney Mark III and a Sega Blast City.
What is still missing and would complete my ball fetish is an Egrett II ;-)

Glad to read you!

Hi otakus,
I am new here and relatively new to collecting arcade pcbs and systems. A friend introduced me to this forum and told me to stop by.
We recently bought a few Naomi 2s and triforces, which we consolized. Since then I am looking into more systems and trying to learn as much as I can.
At the moment the early 3D era gets my most interest and I am trying to figure out where I should start for myself.

thanks for having me here :3

Welcome! :awe:

Definitely the best place to start! Although probably the wort time to start though, especially if you've bought previously. Still, it's better you've joined now and before the perpetual €1K rise next week :shifty:
