So the wife and I moved into a new home last week and one of the first things we got set up was our home arcade. For the past 6 months or so I’ve been collecting, fixing, and selling arcades, but the only place I could store them in our 2-bedroom condo was in the garage. Now that we’re in a 6 bedroom house, I was able to dedicate a room to the cause. So, here are some pics of the room (details of the arcade follow the pictures).

The arcade consists of:

• Donkey Kong – fully restored
• Asteroids – 90% restored (needs a little work on the control panel paint)
• Ms. Pac-Man – 100% restored (will still do a cap kit on the monitor though)
• Jurassic Park pinball machine – 100% original in A+ condition
• Neo Geo MVS 4-slot system in a Japanese Candy Cab. Games include:
• Metal Slug
• Metal Slug 2
• Metal Slug X
• Metal Slug 3
• Metal Slug 4
• Metal Slug 5
• Samurai Showdown II
• Ghost Pilots
• Ninja Combat
• Aero Fighters 2
• Strikers 1945 Plus
• Garou Mark of the Wolves
• Puzzle Bobble
• Magical Drop III
• Baseball Stars 2
• Shock Troopers
• King of the Monsters 2
• SNK vs Capcom SVC Chaos
• Neo Mr. Do
• Andro Dunos
• Blazing Star
• …more on the way

• MAME cabinet w/ 25″ horizontal display, 2 player setup, spinner, trackball, and thousands of games (you name it, it’s on the machine)

The green tint you see to everything is due to the lighting I have. I have both a black light and green fluorescent bulb in the arcade. In person it looks great, especially with the dark blue paint on the walls. I still have room for some more cabinets, but right now I’m happy with it as it is. If the right game pops up in local listings however, we’ll see…

A video clip of a short walk through the arcade is available here (1 minute 8 seconds): http://youtube.com/watch?v=6wzsT7SuJdc

Sorry for the shaky footage. I was using a digital camera, and they aren’t the most stable things in the world to film with.
