My beloved Xiong Ba cabinet and my Red Box multi-PCB are both sold and has left the building. I’m really happy I got the cabinet sold right now, as I was on the verge of some major reconstruction on it. Typically, I usually start stuff I really regret later on, but this time a buyer …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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.

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 …

Well, I’ve actually had this about a month now, but it’s been a month filled with problems. I got myself a ”brand new” Chinese made Xiong Ba tri-sync 29″ sitdown cabinet. Yes, this was shipped to Sweden directly from Macrown in China where it had been assembled. But unfortunately, quality is something they take lightly …
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.
