John has gathered an excellent collection! These are basically all the games at the top of my list as well. So if anyone has anything they want to sell, let me know.

Thanks!

Ha! Good luck, bro! Smiley It's all possible. I highly recommend meeting some other collector people who are local to you!

Careful what you wish for... Get your wallet out i know a dude with 2 barn full of working games and parts that would tripple the amount that john has.
I just bought 5 machines and 20 marquees myself from this guy and i plan to buy more. Ive never seen a warehouse wall full of arcade monitors in my life before i met this guy.
buckets of buttons,  boxes of pcb's,  control consoles for everything from lethal enforcers to . Power boards , man this dude had everything.
the one thing he didnt have as a "Fix me up" was a neo geo mvs.  he does have a working one in his collection though.

HAHAHAHA
This post cracked me up. I agree. I would like the same or similar. My wife would leave me if I had the same, but I would like maybe 10 with real CRTs. I have one with an LCD and it's depressing.

If you can't find games right away, just grab some spare no burn monitors that have easy to access cap kits, then find lots of friends. :-)
