***UPDATES***
11/17/09 - Some shuffling going on...
I have decided to trim the collection down --for now-- and have sold a few games. Gone are 720, Punch-Out!!, and Mortal Kombat. I'm still trying to figure out where I want to be with this hobby, so it was nice to downsize a little bit. There may be a few more going, and one more coming in, so stay tuned.
08/01/09 - FORE! Golden Tee is back!
I was finally able to hunt down a dedicated Golden Tee cabinet! The GT page has been added.
07/24/09 - Do you say Marble? Marble Madness is here!
Can you say Grail? One of the big hitters from my youth finally comes home to the Garcade. Check it out!
07/11/09 - Championship Sprint!!
Picked up another much played game of my youth in Championship Sprint over the weekend. As always, a page has been added.
07/01/09 - Vs. Unisystem Page added
I decided to do one page for all of my Vs. games in the collection. Nothing too spectacular, but makes it easy to keep track of all of them. Check it out.
06/17/09- The 60-1 lives!
Finally finished re-wiring my Ms Pac cab, and the 60-1 is up and running! Sweet!
03/23/09 - Super Punch-Out!! Added!
A 5 year search has come to a close. SPO is finally part of the Garcade. Check the link at the top!
01/05/09 - Warlords Cocktail back in the mix
Warlords had been out of commision for about a month and a half. Finally got the ARII boards rebuilt, and she's back to life. Sweet.
01/01/09 - Happy New Year!
A very Happy New Year to you all! Ive got a few parts in sight to finish up some projects. Stay tuned.
As I started my quest for the perfect game room lineup, 3 games left today. Centipede, Track and Field, and DK 3. I enjoyed all 3 of the games, but all 3 were projects, and I didn't foresee having the time and $$$ to make them all right. They were sold to a local collector up in Ronert Park, and may one day be returned to their former glory...
---------------------------------
I grew up loving video games, and still remember the day my Dad came home with our first NES. I loved that console, however nothing was better than taking trips to Chuck-E-Cheese on Tully Rd in San Jose, or going to Bullwinkles in Sunnyvale to play the Arcade games. The sights, the smells, the sounds, everything about them made the Arcades awesome. There were tons of places in the San Jose area growing up - Golfland, etc that had arcade games and I absolutley loved all of them.
1993 came and my favorite local restaurant in Folsom had an NBA Jam machine. I was hooked.
I always told myself if I were ever going to own an arcade game it would be that one. Fast forward 11 years later, and I found one on ebaY. Thus, the madness began...
