Any Arcade gamers in this forum?
I'm NOT talking about your silly little playstation, xbox, or even nintendo variety, i'm talking about the upright (or coc)tail) cabinet arcade games.

Where was this Red at the Tiger- inn? No. I grew up near Emilio's grocery. I would spend HOURS there on DK JR and Joust!

I put this together 2 years ago. I ordered the cabinet off of ebay and set it up. That was pretty fun. Not exactly the cleanest or the best setup, but not bad for a guy that doesn't know much about carpentry and electronics.

I played Pacman a little but started getting into Galaga, almost got addicted... I remember I kept looking at my change and kept having to decide between a quick lunch there or "just one more game."
