Updates to the site. Slow, sorry.

New JAMMA harness installed in the JK cabinet. Everything is perfectly setup and I took the opportunity of upgrading the crappy speaker to one that I found in the subwoofer of a busted 2.1 system at the local recycling station. It really sounds so much better now. The bass is now heard. Not ONLY screechy …

Haven’t had much funds to spend on arcade games/cabinet updates lately. A very nice guy has lent me his Ketsui PCB, so now I’m learning much about this beautiful gem from CAVE. I’ve devised a nice instruction card-holder to replace the totally unneccesary ashtray in my Xiong Ba cabinet. Looks really nice, doesn’t it? I’ve …

Finally got my hands on an ESPGALUDA PCB! This will recieve much playtime for sure. Having 1CC:d this on PS2, now I must complete the task on this PCB. Big thanks to TonyTwoFinger for letting me split the payment so I can afford it.

I have made some nice changes to my Red Box PCB so it now has AdvanceMenu as frontend. This of course looks much better than the very basic menu that came with it. Also supports animated previews of all games and has a nice trance track as background music. I’ve created a kick ass animation …

Took new photos of my sitdowns, since I’ve upgraded with new/more buttons and new balltops. Next up for the Xiong Ba cabinet is an EGRET II style instruction card holder since I’m a non-smoker and it will look much better.

Sold my Dragon Blaze PCB. I never play this as I’m not a big fan of Psikyo style game mechanics. A really beautiful game though. Will put this money into an ESPGaluda PCB instead.

Did an overhaul on the site so that you won’t see the extra scrollbars that appear if your vertical resolution ( <900 pixels ) is too low. I’m counting on that people use at least 1024×768 nowadays.

Got a Gals Panic PCB from a friend that’s selling his cabinet, so he’ll have no means to play it (except when he visits me that is). Also bought a cheap (59 sek) poster with Super Mario (DS game, I’m guessing) that I converted into this.

Yesterday my new CPO arrived for my Xiong Ba cabinet arrived from MAME Marquees. It took a couple of hours but it’s now in place. Click here to see the work in progress pics.

Sold my Air Gallet PCB to an american enthusiast. Gonna use the money to upgrade the crappy control panel on my Xing Ba cabinet. Will post pictures when the new CPO arrives from MAMEMarquees as is properly installed. I will probably miss it, but I don’t have a job right now, so that’s the only …
Hi folks,
I'm a bit too old (born 1974), father of two girls and one boy and have been an avid arcade game fan since I first got to play Knuckle Joe (the game's really crap, what was Taito thinking?) but it got me hooked. Me and a couple of my friends used to ride our bikes around town just to check out the latest games. And we we're really good at playing them. Luckily for me, the game operators responsible for the machines around my home town really had a great feel for what games would be popular.
Look at my collection to see some of the titles that I now as an adult had do have. I was too young to play at the local video rental (they had two NSM cabinets and later switched one of them to a JK Cabinet) and the best operator in town, Video Games was their name.
I stood there watching the older kids play. There was the 15 year age-limit and I was only about 13 at the time. I also played a lot on Aleph cabinets. The operator that favoured those is called Adon-Bolagen.
