Updates to the site. Slow, sorry.

Took some new photos of my candy cabs. I’ve updated the cabinet pages, but the photos can be seen directly from here as well. Here they are side by side (using a flash). Here’s a picture without flash. And here’s a couple of pics of the Xiong Ba from above. All pictures are opened in …

Trimmed the collection somewhat. Vimana and Psy-Conics Oscar are both sold, and I just traded my Raiden Fighters 2 (including the SPI mobo) for an Ibara PCB. These games are all great, but does not get enough play time from me and will hopefully end up getting more love in their new homes. Getting the …

DoDonpachi DOJ-BLEX has arrived and is really fun to play. Too bad that the loading times is laughable at best, and the game isn’t compatible with my hacked pad, as I have to sync it everytime I’ve made a choice in the game’s menus. In other news, I’ve sold my Arkanoid PCB+JAMMA adapter, and the …

Time for a little update on things. I’ve sold my Tetris Plus 2 cart for the Jaleco Mega System 32, and now only have the glorious P-47 Aces left. I’ve recieved the Extron Super Emotia and successfully installed that into my EGRET II, and am currently waiting for Do Donpachi DOJ-BLEX for the 360 to …

I’ve sold my Rastan PCB. Never gets played anyway, and I will rather have some nice things for my cabinets right now. Will get 2.1 speakers for my EGRET II, and a Extron Super Emotia video converter I got off eBay needs a power stepdown converter so I can play vertical high res (Japanese XBox …

Sold a couple of games and invested in a reproduction overlay for my new EGRET II 1L7B panel. Super Contra as well as Gunforce are now gone from the collection. Never mind as I never play them anyway. Someone elses treasure now, hopefully.

New panel for the EGRET II has arrived and is installed. I’ve fashioned a harness for it, so it’s completely plug ’n play with the EGRET II/Atomiswave SD standards. This panel is fitted with a Suzo 500 stick and Seimitsu pearl buttons, as that’s what I’ve grown acustomed to. I’ve made an order from SEGAShed …

Sold a couple of games: Metal Slug 5 PCB and PGM mobo with Dodonpachi 2 – Bee Storm cart. The money I get from these will go towards a new 1L7B panel for my EGRET II, and a couple of 2.1 systems for that cabinet and my JK cabinet.

NEW design! The yellow and black is very nice, but I thought it was time for a new look. Kinda has an EGRET III vibe going on. Also had a look at the links on my misc page and removed those who sadly no longer work + added a few that does. Also, during these …
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.
