Title: Checking in from South Jersey
Post by: donbaldi on August 25, 2014, 07:14:39 pm
Hello everyone -  I found John's Arcade on youtube not too long ago.  I am 37, male, and my addiction started before I can remember.  Mom bought dad a Space Invaders Deluxe for his 30th birthday, a machine I still have today - 1 owner, all original.  I also have a converted Golden Tee that I made into a 400-in-1 multicade with an LED monitor.  I just purchased another Golden Tee with the plans on converting it into a 2-player fighting multicade, but everything is so nice on it I think I am going to keep it as is (it actually is a converted Mortal Kombat cabinet).  So right now I have three games, always looking for more. 

A buddy of mine has a Mr. Do cabinet that he wants help turning into a 60-in-1, so I am going to do some research on here and hopefully pick your brains with that project.  I have a lot of looking through all these posts to do, looking forward to learning more and sharing info with everyone here.

Don

Hey Don, welcome.

The Asteroids Deluxe sounds epic.

Where is South Jersey are you?  I am in South Philly.

Most sincerely,

Gus
