Title: Things are falling into my lap (non-sexual, EmpRob!)
Post by: AlteredBeast on October 24, 2001, 06:18:30 PM: I just acquired 3 arcade games, full systems.

I got:

Virtua Fighter - great condition of upright, no screen burns, and sticks are nice. $150

Final Fight - screen is not functioning right now, but I am gonna tinker with it. upright is in good condition, sticks in good condition. $30

Galaga - table top style, full machine with screen facing up towards you, and there are knobs on either side of it, great condition of everything, TV a little iffy. $25

not bad, eh?

My room has no more space now!! but I have the Best.Room. Ever.

I think arcades are now a dying breed. :(

Post by: kirath on October 25, 2001, 05:54:12 AM: That is very cool. My friend just found one the other day on the side of the road, screen was bad, replaced it and now it works great!

I would love to have old arcade games someday.

Post by: AlteredBeast on October 26, 2001, 07:48:35 AM: yeah, I am pretty lucky.

My room is extra full right now and I had to lend one of my old ones (Punchout) to my bud to make room.

Life is good, eh?
