Title: Saying Hi
Post by: Ruderudie on January 24, 2011, 10:43:42 PM: Hey guys,

I'm new here, but actually i have read many roadtrip stories and most of all the gameroom-building stories are great reads! I'm from Holland, and active on the Dutch Nozomi forum. Interest is mainly 90's games en Japanese cabs, but i also like classic cabs and in fact: everything arcade is great. Maybe in the future i will have room for a complete area of games, so far it's 2 cabs and just a nice size room upstairs.

Here are some pics of my room:

So i hope to read more great stories, especially the lair V3 and our own Ckong's gameroom!

Enjoy the place ;)

Would love to own one someday but for now i prefer spending my money on dedicated, earlier cabinets.

Just kidding, just kidding.....I have no hate against traditional Japanese plastic cabinets.
I have no love for them either ;D ;D ;D ;D

Hope you catch my sense of "humor" ;D ;D ;D

But without kidding, it's nice to see the love for both 'plastic' candy cabs and 'woodden' classic cabs. Like a lot of other people I love both of them.

Post by: Ruderudie on January 25, 2011, 08:41:12 AM: Yes indeed erik, dutch invasion :)! My first cab was a classic upright though, but for me the not-dedicated cabs are a better option, considering the ammount of space i have. By the way, the sega aero is completely made out of solid steel!

+1, I like them OK atm but I'm pretty sure I will love them in let's say 15 years ;)
Be very welcome here by the way!
