A few months ago I made a thread on KLOV about crossing a few important games off my bucket list. We filmed it along with some other mischief (racing with some off road vehicles), and the video is now live on YouTube! https://youtu.be/CcNGjEu5uAA https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/878/42391301542_03ef895...

Ok some massive updates to the listings. As always if you want to see more pictures of each project you can click on the one shown to see the complete Flickr gallery. Games Added: -NBA Jam -Nintendo 5-Slot -SEGA Rally Images Updated: -NeoGeo 4-slot -Donkey Kong Ultimate -Rally Bike (also completed!)...

I sent Brian my board, and he sent it back to me (pic below). It has a little switcher box which allows me to load up the US, JAP, and International ROM set as i choose. :D It's been living in the game since i finished the project. LOVE it! https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2930/34142495916_f295c2d78f_...

Where did you get all the new games from? Looks like you picked up all at once? The Simpsons, crane, MVS, abd WMS all came from the same place, however the pin, NSS, and Hit the ice all came from completely different places. Very nice work! Quality and taste, which is getting harder to come by thes...

I eventually went JROK with mine (may be worth considering now that the prices have come down dramatically). I did JROK in my Robotron restoration as well. It's fine to have the original board-set in the back, but at the end of the day the JROK will actually work. and you'll never tell the differen...

Updated a couple pictures, and Added another couple games:

-1975 Gottlieb El Dorado EM Pin
-Taito Rally Bike Project

Ok, massive update with new pictures of the arcade, including 6 new games:

-Simpsons
-NeoGeo MVS 4-25
-Make Trax Cabaret
-Hit the Ice
-Nintendo Super System
-A Skill Crane!

I also updated the Have/Want list, and fixed a few links.

Long overdue but we've managed to film an update on the Nintendo Sheriff project, and for the first time we plug everything in and try flipping the loud switch. After that we talk about a couple of differences between Sheriff and Exidy's Bandido. https://youtu.be/F5ikKtqzfbc https://c1.staticflickr....

Anyone here BIG into Snakes & Reptiles?... Maybe you or someone you know is pretty big into snakes and reptiles? Do them (and me) a quick favour and share the info in the image. A little cryptic from me I know, but trust me it might just be worth their/your time. https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/81...

haha, Marquee found, Thanks folks!

HEY! I'm looking for a marquee for the dedicated Williams Hit The Ice cabinet ( shown in the picture below). Let me know what you have, and also what you might need, buy or trade. http://www.gallopingghostarcade.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/15418310_10210231736101886_6087226657362804514_o.jpg

The anode hole goes nowhere. Its just a divot for the cup to latch on to. Feel free to fill it with water... I’ve done about 40 CRTs now all with this method. Use zero pressure when rinsing or you risk losing stickers and dag.

Thanks! We did all of those in BRIGHT colours so they'd stand out. Plus one in Purple as a throw back to the hate I get for the purple DK.

Not so much a "for sale" thread as it's a public service announcement. But The Canadian Arcade now has MERCH! We're offering a bunch of shirts in different styles and colours, plus some other swag like mugs, a hoodie, phone cases, and even a branded pillow, (for what ever reason you'd want...
