Posted on July 22, 2010 | 1 CommentThe guys from Giant Bomb attended this year’s California Extreme show and put together some great footage of their time on the show floor speaking with attendees, vendors, and show organizers. Here’s a link to the Giant Bomb page: http://www.giantbomb.com/giant-bomb-at-california-extreme-2010/17-2922/ I wasn’t able to get... -
Beating down the cheesers in Super Street Fighter IV
Posted on July 19, 2010 | 7 CommentsSo back when Street Fighter IV came out I was really excited. I hadn’t seriously played any Street Fighter games since Super Street Fighter II. Even with the Alpha series I barely touched them, and the SFIII family of games were just something I never... -
A SHMUP brush up
Posted on July 6, 2010 | 3 CommentsWith the release of Sin & Punishment: Star Successor for the Wii and Deathsmiles (impressions for both coming soon) for the Xbox 360, I figured I’d give a brief overview of the shoot ‘em up (shmup) genre and point out some of my favorites. The... -
Bangback: The Pinball Movie
Posted on July 17, 2009 | No CommentsWe all loved King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters for its David and Goliath story and its peek into the hardcore geek life of competitive arcade gaming. Whether it was completely accurate or not (it was NOT, by the way), it was something that... -

Restoring an all-time favorite…Punch-Out!!
Posted on April 15, 2009 | 7 CommentsI’ve been searching around, bidding on auctions, watching local classifieds like a hawk (a chicken hawk, to be precise), and even sent out countless emails to old contacts trying to track down a Punch-Out!! arcade cabinet. Most of the time I was either outbid on... -
Video of my home arcade
Posted on March 28, 2009 | 4 CommentsOkay, so this is like the third time I’ve made a video of the arcade, but it’s made some significant changes since the last time. All in all, there are ten cabs in the room, and it looks like I just have enough room to... -
Arcades in people’s garages
Posted on March 26, 2009 | 2 CommentsMost people use their garages for stuff like cars, lawnmowers, bicycles, and for a little bit of extra storage. For arcade collectors, however, they can often be used as workshops or even fully fledged game rooms. Here’s a gallery of images that I’ve collected from... -
First Virtual Console Arcade games release
Posted on March 26, 2009 | No CommentsI’m a huge arcade nut, so seeing arcade games coming to the Virtual Console service is something that makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. The first four titles to release are Star Force (Tecmo), Mappy (Namco), Gaplus (Namco), and The Tower of Druaga (Namco)... -
Welcome, APB! Another arcade joins the game room (with pics)
Posted on March 14, 2009 | 5 CommentsToday my wife (who is 8 months pregnant), my dog, and I headed up to Nampa, Idaho (about 15 minutes east of Boise) to pick up an APB arcade game from a fellow KLOV/BYOAC member, FrizzleFried. Boise is about a 5 hour drive from here,...
