It's been a while since I posted a group of gameroom photos here on BYOAC... so I thought why not start a nice gameroom photo thread here in the MISC. ARCADE section where it should be?!



















Here's the Star Wars Cockpit Corner... I do need to get another frame for a 2nd flyer in the corner there...it looks strange with just the one.  The clock is a little high,  but there was already a screw in the wall so I went with it... Smiley

Very nice.   Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

And nice room!  Hard to believe this is the same guy that was concerned about finding his first cabinet in Idaho then was worried about his wife's reaction.   Grin

I don't remember that much Steelers stuff up when I was there. The Super Bowl run didn't have any effect on that, did it? Grin

Right now I'm "renting" the dining room as a game room. Next house will have a dedicated game room with lots of room for more games. Cool But until then, this is the "dinecade":

No, I bought it from Dave (ArcRevival). I too, missed the cheap one.  Hissy fit! 
I haven't had the time to get the Darth Vader topper from him yet, so I put my black cat up there instead.

Not much to my gameroom, seeing as how I have just the one MAME cabinet in there. I did add some art to the walls, a new clock, and swapped out the MAME marquee for a Galaga (just to see how it looked).

What's left at my ex's house?

(notice someone had to reorganize to make them less playable)



I took a video on her digital camera and made this gif.  I have GOT to rescue them. Especially that star wars trilogy arcade.


I'm working on game rooming the 1 car garage in my new place but I don't get the same feeling from it. 

I have already put

Space invaders
Missile Command (Cocktail)
Donkey Kong 3
Zaxxon
A mame conversion (out of an outrun of all things- hey it was free)

Out there and it's already feeling a bit cramped


Also Not Shown:  Darien's White Room  See Below

Ehhh Just an ex-girlfriend nothing too tragic. We're best friends now.  I broke up with her. And for the record the Party Monsters pin, Tron, and Primal Rage are hers, the latter two were gifts you know like getting someone hooked on drugs. first couple are free.

We also bought her parents a Ms. Pacman, we beautifully restored it and they've only played once. Cry!

Here are some pictures of my little arcade.  This room is work in progress..

Cyberflexx's Game Room

MP3 Jukebox / Mame machine


Jukebox software


NeoGeo MVS 4slot with 100 n 1 board, 100% original Galaga and my jukebox/Mame


My friend Daniel playing Galaga and the front section of Sorcerer Pin


Sorcerer Pin


Pachislo Skill Machine


My 4 yr old playing Galaga!  ( gotta start'em early, ya know ! )


I am still waiting on parts for my Buck Rogers Pin and I am doing some repairs to it before I get it moved into my little room.  I also need to move all of my computer junk off the shelfs and throw away the outdated junk.  This room is work in progress.  I can only work on the room after my kids are in bed and after all the housework is done and by then I am tired and want to go to bed. 

Does anyone make a room stretcher?!  I'd love to have more space available.

Ummon:

The Mp3Juke and mame machine is in a generic poker machine cabinet.  The hole in the middle is for a dollar bill mech, which I dont have.  It was a brand new cabinet when I got it back in 2000. 


Hunk: 

The Metal Slug 6 is one of the games on my 100 in 1 multicart.  Not sure what version or anything.  I do have about 8 or so other carts for it Metal Slug 2 and X are two of them.

I'll take more pics soon and replace these. I just had these on hand and they work ok for now. I'm also planning on rearranging stuff tonight to make room for a couple of new arrivals that I'm working on bringing in soon.
