Title: Some new arrivals to fit into the tardis
Post by: drawfull on October 01, 2011, 02:03:07 pm

Have a needing-cosmetic-work Turbo Outrun, nice Battlezone Cabaret and nice Playchoice 10 on the way. Anyone know colour codes for the OutRun? Artwork? The small pics I have show the need

Week or so till they're here :D

Turbo will be going in the 'new' room, the other two with the rest in the main game room.

That Playchoice does look new. Let me ask a question though, is Playchoice an arcade game people want? I remember when I was a kid and Playchoice was at the arcades. I remember thinking "So, it's just nintendo games and you pay for time?" The concept then felt like a ripoff. I never felt the need to put a quarter in a playchoice.

No, even here Playchoice's can be had for very little money, probably for the reason you state. I never played them either*. This one was part of the BZ / Turbo OR deal though.

*That's a lie, I used to play Track n Field on them til I realised it was crap compared to the real thing

I bet you the Playchoice will be popular when you have parties.

"Oh, look, I can play Nintendo! We had one of these when I was a kid! Sweet!"
