That is pretty cool!
I really got jealous when I saw he has a Frontline game.
That is one of my all time favorites.

No reason to be jealous. Particularly as he has a family, he obviously makes some bank to be able to afford all those, as well as the space. The fire button on that Gyruss needs replacing.

Its future me!

The whole arcade in home and Software Engineer part anyway...

I'm more into fighting games, but he did have a Smash TV cab, I LOVE SMASH TV!

I've never lived in a house with a basement, so I don't really know... but if something happens with your plumbing, aren't basements prone to flooding. That would be tragic.

This is basically my childhood (and current) dream realized in some guy's basement. My wife has given me the OK to pick a room in our new home (that we're currently shopping for) as a gameroom. I'll be trying my hardest to find a nice and spacious area that can handle at least 10-15 cabinets and I'll be restoring classics and favorites. Right now my dream lineup would be:

-Ms. Pacman
-Street Fighter II: Champion Edition (already own)
-Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (4-player)
-Galaga
-Tempest
-Strikers 1945 III
-House of the Dead II
-Robotron 2084
-Super Sprint
-Metal Slug 3
-Dragon's Lair
-Donkey Kong

I could add more, but for the sake of being realistic, I'll stop here.
