Aw man, thats pretty sweet dude.

That a really nice collection. I'm very impressed. Have you been holding onto all those games and systems since you were young, or were they acquired at a later date?

A little of both, actually.

I'm really wishing I would have incorporated a projector in my basement.

my wife for pitching a fit about it! I think it would be cool to have a table top control panel and play games on a 110" screen.......not that it would replace my cabinet though.

Damn, Damn, Damn.......

Anyone wanna pay $2000 for a 65" Mitsubishi DLP?

Heres what I have going on at the moment......not too much in the way of gaming, just a mame cabinet and darts......but I love my bar. Plan is to add a jukebox and another Mame cabinet dediated to driving games. Also a Megatouch at some point as well.

Minty! That bar is awesome. Your house would be great for the sunday football games. Or even Fantasy draft night.

Great set up. I can only dream of someday having something half as nice.

For now I have my garage converted but it is still a mess because I had to move out my office to make into a bedroom for the new arival coming.

Thanks Brent! I appreciate the compilments. I actually use it regularly for Sunday football games and it was designed in such a way to get the max enjoyment out of this. I actually live just east of STL and during Ram away games (my family and friends are all Ram fans unfortunately - personnally the only good thing about the Rams is that I get to see the Niners play live at least once a year), I usually have several people watching games all day long, drinking, eating, you know the drill. I also subscribe to NFL Sunday ticket so I can have any two games on at once with both TV's in the viewing area. Works out well. I am looking forward to the seasons start here shortly.

The only thing that never got incorporated into the finished product was a undermount kegerator that would have protruded the tapper up through the countertops. But unfortunately those are VERY expensive. I have the electric run in case I decide to go this route in the future.

Now I need to get started on that Jukebox.

You live just east of stl? I'm in Granite City(you know, that place with the failing steel mill)! I'm trying to get a gameroom but I need to work on some cabs, you know any local places to get some cabs? Any in bellville/edwardsville/colinnsville.

I have obtained one cab I have from the Super Auctions that come through about 3 times a year at the Belleville Fair Grounds. That is really the best place around here to find a cabinet(s). There is one coming up in April (I know long time to wait). One other option I know of is a guy in Madison, IL who has several cabs up for sale on Craigslist. Here is one of his postings http://stlouis.craigslist.org/ele/987988928.html, he has several others. Finally the only other "source" I know of is simply to search Craigslist/E-bay (sort by local location) every day (I found a gutted Defender cab this way for free). E-bay is not very good really though since there dont ever seem to be many cabs close by and shipping costs sour the deal you would get on any cab you would get a "bargain" on.

Hope this helps and I hope your not employed by the mills.......Good luck.

I know dave(got my X-men From him,he helped me fix it too, if he didn't have a spare cab I never would've gotten my x-men cab working again), but He dosen't have too much that I'm looking for, he's a great guy, sells for a great deal , but I need to find more than one place to get cabs. Can you send me a pm when that super auction happens? Sounds cool. No I'm not employed at the steel mill, but the whole city is a mess from this stuff. Not that I notice, I'm too busy trying to get a good job to want to see how the city's doing.

Ok so I have not assembled the pool table yet, give me a few months for those new pics.

I did however get some new theater speakers tho.

All the wires are fished inside the walls, pretty proud of that (DIY)

I am envious of the massive rooms so many of you seem able to dedicate to gaming.

Indeed. PW's game room is at least twice the size of my apartment. I'd definitely be skipping the TV room part and putting in cabs.

Flake · « **Reply #190 on:** March 12, 2009, 04:26:53 pm »

some new updated pics. Have added an itouch bartop game and a pinball. Also juggled around the TV area. Wall mount juke in progress.

pinballwizard79 · « **Reply #191 on:** March 12, 2009, 05:56:31 pm »

That bar makes me really thirsty.

Looks good flake, you are really progressing as a super dork (hey I am one too, all of us are)

.

You added the bartop, a sweet LED pinball & now started the juke.....& you got rid of the ball pit too, damn!

Ball pit is still there. For the pics I moved it to my daughters playroom that doubles as an exercise room for my bowflex and eliptical that I never use.

I am king of the dorks in my circle I think.

I do love me some pinball.

Thanks Q. It should, I could have one hell of a pinball collection for the amount of jack I dropped on it.

shardian · « **Reply #197 on:** March 13, 2009, 09:57:35 am »

I love how open of a floor plan some of you guys have. My gameroom area is only 12 feet wide, which SEVERELY handicaps what I can do. Hell, I have to use my bumper pool table as a throwing line for the darts. This means that darts gets played alot more than pool.

Flake · « **Reply #198 on:** March 13, 2009, 10:12:09 am »

Sometimes I wish I wouldnt have had a bedroom and closet built in my basement and just left all that open. I could room for so much more.

PinballWizard - Do you have a bedroom in your basement?
