Title: Hurry to a park!
Post by: tenrohle on December 17, 2010, 12:10:35 AM
No roadtrip pictures but this just made its way from Denver, to LA, to Texas, across the sea to the UK to a few different spots, and then eventually to my storage place. I havent played it since 1990 and I'm very happy to have one here now. I sold ckong a nice 25 anniversary SI/QIX a while ago to make room for this baby.

Wow. I never played 720 (nor had I heard of it before I started this hobby) but I'd really like to give it a try to know what all the buzz is all about :P

Machine looks very nice!

Matter of opinion I guess. It's one of my favourites and you could never compare any of the console ports to the arcade version. Nor an emulated one without the right joystick.

That was a jerk of a thing to say by the way.

Nice catch, and welcome here.

By the way, I already sold the SI/Qix game. I did like it very much, but I had an opportunity to get a classic Taito Qix cab, in working condition, which of course I couldn't let go. So the Si/Qix had to go.

And I'm entitled to tell you to keep that shit to yourself, especially if its in a thread about someone getting hold of their grail cab.

Ckong: I completely understand. Apart from it being so nice and shiny and new it really is nothing like the real thing..!

I didn't know there were skate arcade games. Cab looks in really good condition.
Congrats!

Hey Tenrohle, what other cabs are you hiding in your secret storage? Any pics? It's our turn to lurk now  ;)

I wasnt talking about the cab being shit, i think the cab is great, but i dont care for the game, and theres no need for foul language either mister, save that for JAMMA+ forums
