Re: Introduce yourself here!
Greetings from Sweden. Long time player of arcade games but just recently got into original hardware. Have a new Astro City incoming and I'm currently looking for some good games to get started with. Mainly here to browse the buy/sell sections. Cheers!

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hi there,
I'm a long time lurker of the forums from the Killercabs days, and now with a house big enough to host a candy cab or two.
I've been studying Japanese for several years and visited Japan 3 times, and HEY arcade twice! I attend regular Japanese meet up groups in London once a month
I'm a huge CAVE/Capcom fan looking for an Astro/Aero/Blast/Net City to get me started with a MAME set up. Any condition considered!
Cheers,
Mike

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Marc here, from New York originally but now living in Canada and more specifically Toronto.
Been to Japan once and generally just a huge video game addic....enthusiast.
I have a almost full MVS/AES collection with a modified HDMI AES that is the absolute bomb. Have tons of games and home console systems. The most rare thing I have outside of my MVS/AES is a numbered 1 of 200 Japanese Resident Evil Blue Dreamcast it is glorious .
What else, before I get to why I'm here recently? I was able to buy a few animated art cels from Mega man 8 outside of ebay which are being frames and are everything.
Okay so why I'm here!
Living in Canadia is tough, it's not the US and it's not Japan. We don't have tons of Blast City/New Versus City/MVS cabs around and easy to procure. Started getting the wheels turning on getting a pallet of 9-18 cabinets from an international merchant for myself and others in Toronto.
I'm pretty sure I can't fit the cab in the room I want it in (I measured, so close, 2 inches away), but I'm not going to let that stop me, really want to get a cab in the next few years and start a CP and maybe Naomi collection/PC hookup.
New to the hobby from a coin op perspective so pretty computer savvy but not really cabinet savvy so looking forward to being a member vs just lurking and engaging with the community and hopefully getting some people including myself some holy grails they will love and cherish forever.

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Greetings fellow humans, my pairental units call me Rudy,
My location is the California section of planet earth,
I have a unhealthy obsession with all things Arcade. I been into pinball and video games for years, recently at the scrapyard I work at I found a sit down Arcade or as the cool kids call it, a candy cab.
now I’m here to learn more about these Japanese machines and to hopefully restore this one that I found.

Hi, I'm mv1f. When I was in college I owned a Neo Candy 29 but I had to get rid of it because moving it is a pain. These days I've been messing with a Naomi without a cab and like to mess with electronics.

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hello, I'm Adam from Champlin, Minnesota, U.S.A. (Minneapolis–Saint Paul area). I'm 33. I joined the forum maybe in 2013, but I'm introducing myself now because I hope to begin collecting some arcade hardware and games in the very near future.
I had previously lived in South Korea and may return this year. I'm worried about importing hardware and games because I think it may be restrictive.
I would be especially interested to chat with members living in South Korea. If you're here, please share what you know!
Thank you!

Hi
Tom here, I look after around 80 retro arcade machines that are in commercial use. An on-going passion and obsession. I have huge gaps in my knowledge and hoping to fill some of them here.
Cheers.
