I’m Jamie. I grew up in the Pittsburgh area but now live in Columbus, Ohio. I own to Jamma games in homemade cabinets . The Joust has about 130 games; the Galaga has 60. I’ll post a picture below. I want one original game before I die. I am on craigslist every day looking. A Mad Planets, Tron or Elevator Action would be great to own. But with space and money, this is all I can have at the moment. And yes...it sucks that I dont have real pixelated monitors. I had a dedicated Galaga cocktail I promised to my wife I'd sell if I got the two I have now. It had a real monitor and everything. I wish I still had it. These LCD screens I have now are SO not the same.
I think whats great about our generation is…Not only can we tell people what games we played growing up, but we can tell you WHAT ARCADE/STORE/HOTEL we used to play them at!
I don’t know the first thing about restoring games. But I watch every damn minute of John’s videos...even though I only understand about 20% of what he’s doing.
Here’s some of my little bar at home:
