Title: New guy from Nebraska.
Post by: Majestic on January 08, 2017, 08:39:30 pm
I just picked up a donkey kong as my first game to restore. It had a rats nest on monitor board and some hacked up wiring for the control panel but the cabinet is in decent shape.
I also have a bartop arcade running a raspberry pi and a virtual pinball cabinet that's almost finished just waiting on warmer weather to paint.

Anyone else from the Lincoln area?

Welcome to the forum and this fun arcade world. A DK cab was my first game as well. There are some Lincoln area people around, but everyone tends to keep to themselves for some stupid reason. I live out by SW high, you?

I live near 48th and holdrege. Hopefully some people around here will come out of hiding it would be neat to meet some more people that enjoy the old arcade days. I don't have a lot of room for a bunch more games and just look for the ones I really want. It seem really difficult around here to find them and when you do they get bought up quick or really expensive.
