Pcdoctor,

I swear this is the truth !

Not only do I live near apollo and vintage vending ...middleton, ma is only 2 towns away.If I were to guess I'd say 15 miles.

So the question now becomes....Who is following who...

(I read your other post already)

Well if you ever find yourself in my area I am sure we can find room for you in one of our places.

I know plan a vacation to funspot this summer and you can stay at our cottage . That way I can follow you around for real...

You do know that funspot is only 75 miles from my house and 5 minutes from my cottage right? If you don't already know funspot is one of the biggest arcades in the world and they have a dedicated area for classic games . They also host a classic game tournament ever year.

Love the pics - does anyone know any dedicated gameroom sites? a BYOGR or something like that ?

Jets. I'm trying to get my hands on a bud light neon that has the jets logo, but they are expensive.

Thanks.

Yeah, probably not our year. Sad part, if Devils lose, Hockey's done for me, unless I can keep routing for the long shot Predators. My long time friend is a Flyers fan (we grew up in South Jersey), so I can't even root against the hated flyers.

Can't have Brodeur playing 70+ games and expect him to do it every year.

BTW, we'll see if Saturday is last game. I danced on my Ken Daneyko jersey in 2000 when the Flyers went up on the Devils 3-1, and I'm pretty sure the DEvils won the cup that year. Boo Flyers!

Um, yeah, pachinko.

I just thought someone might have one in their game room, and thought it would be neat to see one since I had one when I was a child. Sometimes I wish I had that thing back.

I may be interested in one if it works...pm me if you like.

Here is mine...no cab, but the dart board is there and so is my shelf of consoles. Not much right now.

allroy1975 · « **Reply #61 on:** July 13, 2004, 12:58:49 pm »

This is kinda big, so if you have a slow PC or slow internet connection it might be real slow but ....I made a panoramic view of my arcade, it's pretty high detail so, you can actually zoom in on stuff pretty well.

Note the Super Nintendo Controllers on the video rockers. They're hooked up to the PC in the wall and displays there on my 35" Sony.

Not bad I think.

Wow I finally have a gameroom in the new house so I'm glad this thread showed its face again...

So here we have my gameroom:

Starting with the back right corner

Those are drive-in movie theater speakers next to SI.

Back left

Buster, the evil jaundiced bear-clown, is the most recent ebay acquisition.

Front part of the room

We really lucked out in that desk was built into the house and it couldn't work out better for a entertainment center - I just stuck a flexyrack in the chair hole (what is the technical term for that anyway?) for the receiver, DVD player, etc..

and a little closer

The consoles are in the cabinets

(all the controllers are in the cabinet to the left of this one)

and completing the circle the Mickey juke

I'm debating the next project - I'm thinking of either a coctail cabinet for the area to the right of the Juke but part of me wants a dedicated shmup cabinet (that would replace the cheapie air hockey table and leave me with more room for another cabinet after that). hmmmm.

Anyway keep the pictures coming!

Why did that feel like one of those porncam sites, where Elena would then proceed to take her top off and do weird things on a pinball machine?

You didn't watch long enough...she does!

we thought it wold be funny to put 2 of her in there..so we did. Man, making a picture like that was SUPER easy, and I didn't know it would be. Looks pretty good though, eh?

My game room is no where near ready to be shown yet, but I am working on it. I'm hoping this thread stays alive so I can get some ideas on what else is missing.

The Game room is a converted 3 card garage. It was my first experience with sheet-rocking and texture painting.

The car side has the following items: popcorn machine, snow cone machine, cocktail cab, pool table, slot, pub table, and some neon

The second half has the jukebox, two arcade projects and a nice big recliner couch and 35" TV .

The wife wants me to build a bar in the area where my temporary workspace / office is complete with margarita machine, etc..

It's a work in progress.

When you said that I thought someone was selling 'flexyracks', so I googled. I didn't realise how much these had spread since I first built mine.

I made a 4 450x600mm shelf, 1m high version back in 2000, then chopped the rods in half and added two more 450x600mm shelves plus 3 900x450 shelves so it could hold my widescreen tv as well. I've since had to remove the 450mm shelves on one side for space reasons. Possibly about to mod it again to make space for a sub. And I really should paint the shelves properly instead of the rough matt black on there now.

Hey, if you guys don't mind, check out the site again. I think the problem was it was loading a 5mb pictures. It was cool because you could zoom in on the DVD shelves and see the titles of the disks...but totally un-necessary. Check it out now.

Thanks

Here is a mockup of my planned room. We get the new house on the 30th, so I shoudl have this done by the 5th of December or so

Not shown are the pachislo (sp) machines I plan to get, along with the mspac cocktail, the corner mounted tv and the jukebox. I'll rotate out games as I get tired of them instead of jamming too many in there. Through the door is the console room (the kids prefer the console games) and on the other side is the sliding door to the hot tub. You know you always want drunk wet people poking around at your high-current electrical machines, right??

mozzer · « **Reply #78 on:** November 05, 2004, 05:04:13 pm »

I assume you'll be playing hold'em on that table?

Hehehe oh you bet. Oh, but just for fun, not for money. No not for money, no. no, um...no.

Most fun variation of poker I've every played. In fact, if it wasn't for Holdem I probably would have passed on the table and put three cocktail cabs side by side instead.
