Sheesh you guys make me sick!  Here's my gameroom;

1.  Upright MAME cab
2.  See #1

That's awesome!  Let's see some pics.

I do aspire to add

3.  dedicated driving cab/cockpit
4.  Pinball (TBD)

but these will take some time.  Can't wait tho!  But then again my plans probably will change.  Guaranteed some sort of cab down the road.

Post some pics!

Me too.  I don't have much room, and my old comic book collection is taking up the space where I could add something.  If I had the room, I would do the cockpit, and 3 pins.  STTNG,  High Speed, and Pin-Bot

Nothing fancy, just the standards in mine:

Chess
Checkers
Monopoly
Clue
Stratego
Risk
 ;)

Seriously though, I'm envious. I live in a small townhouse, so no gameroom yet. I aspire to be like you guys. My plans for the future are a mame cab and a Chexx bubble hockey. "Do you believe in Miracles?"

I'd like to see some pics of your stocked gamerooms also.

gozur i think you have the best machine of them all, of course i am talking about the snow cone machine. where did you get it? i would be the happiest man on earth if i could have a snow cone anytime i wanted.

 as far as pictures go i had to move all the games out to the garage. i am going to start drywalling the garage and turning it into my gameroom. i will post some pictures of the progress as soon as it starts. i think my gameroom will be the only one with a '53 ford custom in it. i little consection but i do love my car as much as my games,maybe even more, so they will each have half the garage.

1. Junk (Really. So much.)
2. Console stuff aplenty (Nintendo, SEGA, Atari, Coleco, Playstation, XBOX, NeoGeo... seriously, you name it, I have it.)
3. The computer (Sony VAIO 1.6ghz, Radeon 9200)

My MAME cab is in the living room, since I'm not gonna carry that heavy beast upstairs.  :P

Smart & Final / Cash & Carry sells them.

I'm pretty sure I saw one in SoCal last time I was down that direction. From what I understand, not all of their retail location stocks them, but they can all order them. My location in SJ stocked it, so I didnt have to pay frieght which is good, because the grinder is industrial and weighs in at about 40lbs.

I have some outdated pictures, and like Dirt am doing some dry wall work in the game room. Last month I built and attic for storing holiday crap for the wife and now I am building a hidden shelf / closet area. I can probably snap more current pix in the next 2 - 3 weeks.

Ah, I am stifled by a small townhouse.  But I have my Mame arcade cab and an original Double Dragon cab.  Hope to someday have a house...with a very large garage...err, game room.  ;D

I have to admit... all I have (so far) is the one cab... but, there are plans for more.  I'm just waiting for the right time to start on my other project ideas.  Living in a 2 bedroom apt isn't my idea of long term living...  hopefully will be looking for a place to call home in about a year....

My game room is tiny... it was meant to be a formal dining room, so it's only something like 10x12.  It contains my MAME cabinet, a 3-in-1 game table (foosball, pool, air hockey), a basketball game that folds back up into a cabinet in the wall and a dartboard.
