Hi everyone,
I just came across this board, and it looks like a cool idea.
Is anybody else here into collecting arcade cabinets and games?

I don't have room for a full scale machine so I have a xbox mame set up with x-arcade sticks that will be put inside a coffee table =D Real arcade machines would be awesome though....maybe if I ever get a bigger house.
Also welcome to the forums!

Thanks for the welcome.
I have 3 arcade cabinets and an assortment of games I periodically swap out. They definitely take up way too much room. However, they're pretty awesome!
I have some friends who will occasionally get together and play some games, but I'd like to meet more people who are interested in arcade gaming, so I can hopefully get a group of people together, maybe every 2 - 3 weeks for some head to head competition, and score challenges or whatever. Let me know if that sounds like it would interest you!

Yes sir, I'm another Nate!
I don't actually play any real competitions.... I'm not actually that great, but I really like the SNK fighting games like King of Fighters, Garou, Last Blade, among other games.
I'm also into shmups, especially the Dreamcast era ones like Ikaruga, Radirgy, etc.
Puzzle games are great too, especially some of the competitive ones like Super Puzzle Fighter, and the Puyo games.

We have a couple arcade games at home. The problem with them is that they take up so much space that we really can't accommodate any more until we eventually move to a bigger house.
But I'd love to have a row of a few different games in a home bar/arcade setting... maybe with a pool table. I miss hanging out in places like that.
