Re: Introduce yourself here!
HI, I am living just outside Winchester in the UK. I have a fairly good collection of consoles and computers (I am currently hooked on Japanese auction sites) and I am interested in getting into arcade machines from the 80's if I can find space in my flat. My first experience with an arcade machine was night driver which dates me a bit. I would love to own an original R-Type but at the moment have to make do with my Mister.

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hi everyone,
Happy to join this great community! I've been into arcade and retro gaming for years, mostly 2D shooters and a bit of racing — Sega Rally and DoDonPachi are in my top tier. Just recently started getting serious about building a proper setup at home (my wallet already hates me).
Looking forward to learning, sharing and maybe finding a few good deals in the marketplace later on!
Cheers from France

Greetings from Poland.
I used to be a console and game collector, but for a while now I've been collecting only arcade games. I'm also taking my first steps in repairing game PCBs – I've already had a few successes. This hobby is fantastic... but it takes up so much space ;(

Hello! Lifelong arcade enthusiast, got my first cab (a Neo Geo) around 20 years ago and just recently picked up my very own New Astro City after a decade+ search for a local seller!

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hello, my name is Manuel, and I'm from southern Spain and live in Valencia. I've been around for half a century and have been connected to the world of arcades and pinball for almost 30 years.
Although I had a thorn stuck in my side with the Naomi system and I was thinking of getting it out... but it seems that it is getting stuck in me more and more and that's how I ended up here, to see if I can get some wisdom and advice so I don't throw it all out the window.
Greetings to the entire community, Manuel.

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hi all, long time UKVAC member, Candy cab collector, street fighter board & MVS cart collector too......,...
I have a nice collection of 2x New Net city's, New astro city, Blast city, Vewlix C and a couple of twin racer cabs (Daytona 2 & Outrun 2)....
Probably not going to buy anything more a anytime soon, but there is always something that can peak my interest (New Versus City would be cool but never see them)
