New Project - PlunkBox Arcade (Single Player Vertical Bartop)
extendedplayarcade:
Nice machine and nice stove.
Good choice of game too. Dk is my fav. of all time
I just wish i was good at it. I been on a punch out kick lately. I sure wish I liked building more than I liked playing but i just don't
I will never get my cab and barcade projects ever done. Doesn't help either with two small children and trying to sell a house in the worst market ever.
Thanks for posting.

Yeah DK is an all time favourite of mine too. My local arcade had a cocktail version when I was a kid and I spent a lot of time on it (I thought I was reasonably good at it too until I saw King of Kong recently ;D). I have to agree with you on the building vs playing - while I really enjoyed building this thing, towards the end I just wanted it done so I could play it and I could have definitely spent a lot more time on the building if I wanted a more perfect finish.
Keep on going with the projects, you'll get there. One of the things that pushed me along was that my kids got all excited about it and kept asking when will it be ready "is it ready yet? is it ready yet? is it ready yet?...." and now I struggle to get them off it so I can play! Good luck with the house sale too but with this market you have no excuse not to finish the cabs before that goes through :P

Yeah that is awesome that your kids love playing classic video games.
My two daughters are only 2 and 8 months so they haven't developed the taste for classic gaming yet. My 2 year old loves my pinball machine but she will soon enough be introduced to all the all time classics.
I am picking up the new wii sports resort today so that will distract me even more.

Damn, I forgot wii sports resort came out today. I really want to see what the motion plus is like so will be getting one for sure. My youngest daughter is three and is now playing the classic games - she obviously doesn't really get all of the game play but thinks she is great and its really funny to watch.
A pinball machine at home must be great, I doubt I could sneak one in.

Yeah pinball is great. Those virtual pinball tables look great too but i haven't played any yet. I had a total of 12 differents pins before i got married. I actually sold 4 pins to buy my wife's engagement ring. I made some great money on it and now see my pinball fun on her finger. It was all worth it because she said she hopes someday I can replace them but I am in no rush. One pin is good for now and friends and family that come over miss the ones i had but they still have a good time playing all the other games.
Oh yeah wii sports resort is lots of fun. ping pong might be the best game so far. The bowling is a disappointment but I am still in the testing stage. I hope i figure it out soon. I actually have to go real bowling tomorrow in league play. We are in 2nd place and first place is a cool 750 bucks a person. I hope I can pull it off.
