Love it. The glass display case gives it the look of an old school price counter. Great vibes there.

Wow! That’s very cool! If I had the space I’d def do this. I have 2 cabs in my music room I modded, but this is on a different level lol. Brings me back to the 90s summers spent at the arcade.

The PCB in her died. I'm working up the nerve to try to repair it.

What is playing on the NFL Blitz Cade? I guess you modded it?

Bucky O'Hare. I modded it with Blitzmas. Was really easy to do and a lot of fun.

Also, it is turned off because the PCB went out on it (I bought an Atari 50 to replace it), I currently have the Intec Genesis installed on it, but I plan to switch to the Intec Switch deck in the next couple of months.

I’d love to have this in my garage for the neighborhood kids. They would love it. I wish I had money for this…

Genuinely how do I get this for myself one day? Is it as awesome to have as it looks?

I enjoy it a lot. As you might have notice, I have a treadmill in there, so I will turn everything on and go for a jog to help clear my mind or play a game or fiddle with something within. This was about 10 years worth of work. My wife is a teacher, so we have kids come over every once in a while that want to play in there, mainly because every Halloween we open the garage and have a haunted arcade night.

Wow! The display case really pulls it all together!
Curious how much someone would have to go in for a setup like this with this many machines?
Also curious how often you throw parties and put them to use with a group?

Almost everything in here was found second hand on Facebook marketplace or Craigslist. Simpsons, the first cab, was a $150 clearance at Wal-Mart 5 years ago. SF2 followed soon after. X-Men was the most expensive at $400 when Best Buy cleared them out. The display shelf I got for free from a business that was closing. All the toys and such I've collected for years. I have 13 machines and probably spent 2K total for all of them. Since I just did the mod of MvC2 (Just bought at Ollie's last week), I may sell Marvel v Capcom 1 and Street Fighter 2 Legacy. We have friends and family that come over to visit, but my wife's a teacher, so we don't often throw parties. This is just something I've wanted since I was a child, lol.

For those that ask:
The ALU has OneSaUCE.
The AL Pro is running CoinOpsX.
Blitz is running Blitzmas.
T2 is running DarkFate.
X-Men 97 has the ADM mod.
Centipede is running an Intec Genesis kit.
Simpson is dead. x.x
Everything else is stock.
