Hello from Woodbury, MN

[Cyborg2000]

Hello Everyone from Woodbury Minnesota.  I have been dabbling in the arcade game collecting arena for over 15 years.  My first game was a Space Firebird which I always thought was cool because it was a Nintendo branded board in a Sega branded cabinet.  I sold off most of my collection about 7 years ago, but now am getting back into the hobby.  I am a big fan of Nintendo Cabinets and games, and recently finished a Red Tent restore.  This is what brought me to John's Arcade - and I have watched every video here, many of them multiple times.  I look forward to posting on this forum, answering any questions I can, and getting to know all of you.  Thanks to John for the great site!

Greetings Wayne, I am new here myself.
I used to Live in Rochester, MN and I loved it, wouldn't have moved away if I didn't have to. there are lots of games to find if you look around, and once you get back into full collecting mode it will be hard to stop. As for me I'm counting down to next year when I should have some more disposable income so I can finally pick up a Neo Geo MVS and a Pacman

Hope you have fun!
Matt

My wife is from Rochester and so we are there all the time.  Love that town.  And now that Mayo is going to do a HUGE expansion, the town is ready to explode!

Both a Neo Geo and a Pac Man are on my list also.   You are right, once I've started again, its become an....obsession!

Welcome!

I've had a multicade and an EM Pinball for sometime. I recently decided to purchase an original pole position. And I'm super happy that I did. The monitor was gone so I have to figure out the Hz issue there with LCD while I find a CRT, but I'm already obsessed. I'm picking up a Tetris arcade machine game i hope on Sunday as well. Think its  going to be a great learning experience and can't wait to delve Into it more!
