Title: Forums usage...
Post by: gruntfuggly on May 10, 2009, 09:47:14 am

Hi all - does anybody know how many posts I need to make before I can post in the trade section?

10 - last time I checked. If you have no interest making posts and just needed to sell something, a Mod can help you.

Hi - thanks for the quick reply...

Well I do really want to get involved - I've basically had a clear out of my shed and found a bunch of stuff I don't really need, but I want to get a Donkey Kong cocktail converted to MAME...

I did a small upright a few years ago, but kids came along and sort of got in the way of doing much else.

I could just do with trading the stuff I've got for to get get hold of some stuff I haven't - catch 22...

Don't worry - it's in a state - and had been badly converted to JAMMA before I got hold of it...

As far as I'm concerned, mame away, or burn it. Those Nintendo cocktails are horrible. Bad control scheme and ugly.

It doesn't look like that - it's a German version. I'll take a picture tomorrow...

Unfortunately cabs similar to this were the norm in the UK, which is why I find it hard to bring myself to like them.

I think I saw one of these ugly little blighters walking around the Jawa's trash truck in the first Star Wars movie. I agree - mame or scrap.
