Hello, I'm Sylver, I'm French, and over 40 years old now. I'm a video game repair enthusiast and after having repaired all kind of consoles, I started repairing NeoGeo AES, then MVS ... This is how I started to get some arcade stuff :)
I now also have a CPS2 setup (I'm looking for a board B to install the Darksoft MultiCPS2) and I'm trying to get a CPS3 board now !
For now I use everything through a supergun, I hope that one day I'll get a real arcade cabinet :)

Hello! I'm from Atlanta, GA, US. Super into 3s and bought a couple of blasts specifically for that purpose. One of the monitors is broken though so that's not so great.

Thomas from UK here. Recently purchased a Blast City as my first cabinet and have been getting my hands dirty. Hopefully over the summer I will have a clean cabinet brought back to life :)

Hey everyone,

I’m currently trying to learn more about cabinets in hopes of owning one in the near future. I’m active on other forums and see a few familiar faces

Cheers

Hey, all. I'm a complete new friend when it comes to arcades, so I took to forums. You can also find me on Arcade Projects.
I went and bought a SegaSonic The Hedgehog board on a whim, and now I want a cab for it. :D

Hello everybody,

just wanted to introduce me as well, my name is Felix, I live near Hamburg in Germany and I am in the Arcade since last year now, refreshing all the good old memories from the times when I was a kid.

In my collection there are two general machines (one with a NewGeo set), Out Run, Space Invaders (currently in restoration), Pole Position (awaiting restoration), a Sega Missile Command Table (also waiting for restoration), Atari Missile Command Table and some random stuff

Thanks for letting me in, looking forward for having a good time!

Cheers, Felix

New member here. Only arcade hardware I have is a neo 1 slot mvs. Looking to convert my candy cab to run a mame PC instead now. Got into this hobby over 10 years ago when I was a teenager but then kind of lost interest. The cab and mvs has been collecting dust for years but I just moved to a larger home, so I finally have room the bring it back out. Ready to get back into it! Pretty much into run n gun, schmups, and beat em ups. I’m straight trash at fighting games and just mash buttons.

Hello, I'm StarCreator. You've probably seen me post in Shmups and several other places. I seriously thought I had an account here before, but apparently not, so hi!

Hey, I was looking to get one of the Taito stools and this seems like a cool place to potentially get one!

I'm not sure if I have the space for an actual cab at the moment, but I have always been interested in getting one.
