Hi, my name is Rich, I'm from the UK and currently have one (broken) New Net City! Built a repro DK cab that funded this latest cab. Anyone got a Tosh PF chassis for sale?!

I am new to arcade machines and this forum has been so much help. I've had good information by reading this so I decided to register. Hopefully I'll be asking some stupid questions some day.

Hello! I'm a newly active user to the forum, but I've been coming here for information for a while. I joined as I finally have a cab of my own! It's a NeoGeo MVS-U4/29, and it needs a little love cosmetically, but is functionally perfect. The priorities for me will be acquiring or fabricating a 1P2P panel and a marquee cover. If anyone knows where I can get started with sourcing those assets(or replacements), please reach out! Image

Hi all, I'm Brandon.

I'm a New Orleans dweller, lover of the Tetris TGM series, lead software engineer, club chess player, cryptic crossword puzzler, arcade hardware hobbyist, bookworm, and whiskey enthusiast, among other things. The arcade hardware I'm usually pounding on (pictured below) is a Sigma AV7000 supergun with 9000TB fightsticks and a Sega Net City cabinet which is a work in progress.

Image
Also shown above is my XRGB Framemeister, and of note is the Sanwa-modded fightstick on the left. Although it looks identical, I desoldered and replaced the stock Seimetsu stick and push buttons with Sanwa equivalents.

Image
My Sega Net City with original monitor and I/O. I am waiting on replacement control panel, as the one shown is for a Versus City and has begun to rust.

Well met!
-Brandon

Hi,

I'm a video game collector from Denmark, focusing on arcade. The collection just passed 1000 original arcade machines, so it's a project that takes up a lot of space and time...

Hi, I'm Patrick I've been into retro consoles for about ten years now and thought it was about time I dipped my toe into the world of cabs and pcbs.

Hi everybody I'm Murray from norwich England . Been a dream of mine to own a candy cab recently picked up a UK naomi universal that's already been chopped absolutely thrilled with it . I'm 37 so grew up in a time when the arcades were awesome and nothing could touch the experience of playing your favourite games in a dingy dark smoke riddled arcade . I have no time really for modern gaming too time intensive for me . I'm completely new to forums and the whole interweb type stuff so please be patient. All the best to everyone .
