I play mine at least once a week.  That's laundry day, when I get all my laundry off of it.  ;D

RayB:

Ummmm, Ummmm... I have a MILLION excuses why I don't play mine:

1. Atari Dominos: It's not scottish!
2. Galaga: It's inaccessible.
3. Missile Command cocktail: It's covered and being used as a table!
4. Crystal Castles: Um, I've been busy working on my MAME cabinet.
5. MAME cabinet: I'm not done wiring it up!

Other miscellaneous excuse that apply to all of them:

6. I need to clean the basement.
7. I don't have electrical outlets installed yet in my unfinished basement.
8. The GF complains I don't spend enough time with her.
9. I run a business. It sucks all my time away!

and my #1 biggest excuse:
10. I WASTE TOO MUCH TIME IN

MaximRecoil:

I haven't had my machine for very long but I am still playing it. Back in '87 I played the same machine just about everyday for about a year. The competition between me and Lawton Mann for the high score certainly helped to keep my interest. Plus, having the machine in a public location where people would gather around to watch you play was pretty cool too. Sometimes people would want to see a new high score set to the point that they would give you quarters if you were out. Also, my initials that I signed on machines became my nickname throughout the rest of school (CIB, they pronounced it as "Sib").

I voted "All The Time", altho my cab and it's core PC are both in storage... I play what games I've got installed on my main PC (about 13 of them) regularly...   


Can't wait til I buy my home and reassemble the MAME Machine.....

I am home with the kiddies for the holidays ...... and we have been playing everyday now a lot.  The kids discovered they love Shuffleshot and Toobin'
