Is there already a thread like this on johns arcade forum? Or does everyone just post pics of their man-cave on KLOV? I just thought it would be sweet if everyone posted pics of their arcade rooms / man-caves or wherever they collect their games. It would stir up some inspiration i think for all of our man-caves I would post my man-cave but as of right now i have 0 games (my first cab should be done in a couple weeks)
Can any of you guys put your man-caves up against johns man-cave?
Lets see those pics chief

John doesn't have a mancave. He has a full blown arcade .
Mancaves = midlife crises Arcade = way of life

I have a room full of machines but I don't have a sign that lists the rules yet so I'm not sure it qualifies as a man cave.

+1 when I think "mancave" I think about sports memorabilia, beer signs, pool tables references to fishing, and maybe a Mame Cabinet. Most of the guys around here would classify their rooms as arcades, myself included. And considering I mostly play my games with my wife and kids, nieces, nephews and in-laws I guess it can't really be classified as a man cave anyway I am quite happy with how my collection is progressing, and I may reach my goal of 10 cabs by next year. I do post pics here regularly of my games, it's often faster just to visit my coinopspace page if you want to see them http://www.coinopspace.com/profile/MatthewSilcox and this thread does remind me I should take a new photo of the lineup because I've added a few things....

Haha yeah just having fun with the man cave episode of arcade outsiders, I was literally laughing so hard while listening to that episode It was a danger for me to be on the road. I've always hated that term man-cave. My wife refers to my room as my "batcave" which I accept (being a batman fan) but when I get my game down there it will be known as my batcade

I agree, regardless of location ( basement, garage, spare room ) its your arcade... where the games are the stars

I like playing pool, darts and Foosball as well as arcade games, so my basement will always remain a mancade.
