I'm new to the forum and just want to introduce myself.  I'm in Northern NJ and just getting into building an arcade.  The site and forum are great.

Thanks to all who have contributed.

WELCOME!
    I am some what new also. I have met nothing but really nice and helpful people so far. Some have a weird sense of humor but so do I.

(O.K. I am one of the weirdest I have come across but, this is only because of the Gov. implant in my brain.) Of course with out it I wouldn't be able to change channels on my TV by licking my shoe. Oh god! I have said too much.
They treated me like an animal and that's what I became.

I grew up in Bergen County.  Currently live in Orange County NY right on the Bergen County Line.

Close enough if you get stuck with something on your build....

Currently completed an 2 ulitmate arcade IIs and now starting plans for a Juke.

Hi pj.

Welcome to one of the friendliest communities on the web. As other people have said, it is all a little bit bonkers, but if you like arcade games and cabs you have just found your second home.
I didn't touch it....honest!

Thanks to all.

Amerish,

Thanks for the offer.  There is so many different options, I'm not sure where to begin with my home arcade system.  I'm sitting back and learning before I make my move. I will certainly have questions and issues once I start building.
