Title: Hi from GameroomDesigns.ca, up here in Canada! Post by: Gameroom Designs on March 19, 2014, 08:24:49 am Hey there!
My name is Rick, and I'm the owner of Gameroom Designs Canada. I just wanted to drop in and say I'm a HUGE fan of John's Arcade, and I appreciate your amazing support of the classic arcade and gaming community! (I've even got my seven-year-old Son excited about your show, as just this morning we enjoyed your "Black Knight" gameplay vid before he went to school.) I recently started Gameroom Designs to help bring more classic arcade options to the Canadian market, as there aren't that many places to get items up here... Right now, we're focusing on flat-pack bartop arcade kits (with a classic flair), cocktail kits and pinball cabinets, but will be expanding our options in the very near future.

I hope you the best in your ventures and welcome to the forums.

Pop in the right board, power supply and wire it up, and you too can keep a classic alive! Like my most recent customer commission: (http://i.imgur.com/1S3IHuZ.jpg) Cheers!

Rick The problem is,, you are in a place where we can do that too lol. But welcome anyways. Title: Re: Hi from GameroomDesigns.ca, up here in Canada!

I've sold 15 cabinets in the past three months, so there's always someone who would rather buy one than spend their time building 'em from scratch! 8) Title: Re: Hi from GameroomDesigns.ca, up here in Canada! Post by: Mr_Rampage on March 31, 2014, 10:12:58 pm Interesting, I actually am working on making my own {new not mame} games and amusements. I have a facebook page as "the ghost quarter" I have lots of designs but no money to do anything with the designs. Good to see others making cabinets though we should talk sometime.

This would make a great alternative, Where in Canada are you located ? If I may, (and let me state that Rick did not ask me to respond to this)... I got their website from someone on Klov. Gameroomdesigns is out of Ajax, which is a suburb of Toronto. To try them out I bought a power supply and jamma harness from them. Got it in the mail 3 days later. I was impressed and do plan to purchase more parts. Steve Title: Re: Hi from GameroomDesigns.ca, up here in Canada!

This would make a great alternative, Where in Canada are you located? I'm so sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this! I thought I had a notification set up for messages from this forum, and it looks like it's been a while since I've visited. (Apologies, again!) As Steve mentioned, we're in Ajax, Ontario. We do ship across North America, and I'd be happy to answer any more questions you may have! To try them out I bought a power supply and jamma harness from them. Got it in the mail 3 days later.
