Which cabinets are still there? I have seen a space invaders, the uzi game and those taito cabinets in other posts.

The space invaders have left the building years ago, those pictures you saw are old.

But there still are about 5 or 6 Taito cabs (some with games in them), two Blockade's, Sega Bomber, Mechanized attack (the uzi game, game plays fine, monitor doesn't work €150), exidy circus (monitor doesn't work, €80), Caterpillar, one or two Breakouts and Super Breakouts, 4 Superbugs (some with game pcb), 2 Ridge Racer sitdowns (both work, €250 each), empty Galaxia cab, Canyon Bomber, some NeoGeo cabs, a lot of generic cabs, Exidy Crash, Crunch (?, see photo), Zaccari Vanguard, some other Zaccari cabs, enduro racer, sit-down powerdrift (did work one day, and when turning on the next day it didn't work, € 250), perhaps an Atari Avalanche (if someone else din't collect it yesterday  ;)  and a lot of other uninteresting stuff.

Most of the stuff probably won't work (right away).

Thanks for the info! I like Mechanized attack, too bad i don't have the skills to repaire the monitor.
Do you know how much those taito cabs cost?

The Mechanized Attack cab still is in very good condition, almost perfect I would say. I don't think that you will get a nicer looking one very easy. Repairing the monitor shouldn't be a big problem, there are specialists who repair them. And it could also be a very tiny issue, like a blowen fuse or something. I did play the game blind, and I could hear the gameplay very well, on both uzi's.

Probably €50-70 if there is no gameboard in it, €100 if there is.

Just to give an idea about the coolness of Video Pinball:



I mean, 1978, Saturday Night Fever is the big hit movie, the disco is the place to be, stars, colors, blacklight, funky, groovy music (Chic !) and a game of Video Pinball....all the late 70's steaming Disco elements are in this game :D

you guys are HARDCORE!! (and good samaritans too so it seems)
 :lol: :ghost: :ghost: :ghost: :ghost:

You mean because we collected a few games for other people  :), or because we just delivered a car jack to Ully and Sascha, who had a flat tire just a few kilometers before they got at the warehouse.  :(

Yeah, if only I knew that belgian Autobahns have holes like swiss cheese I would have chosen the tank instead of the van...
Anyway, thanks for helping us out, so sorry we couldn't meet under nicer circumstances (the traffic was indeed frightening...), you guys risked your life for us...

Sure thing, every german has a tank in his garage, we use wheel driven vehicles only to disturb our beloved cab-buying neighbors...  ;D

Thanks ! Don't worry I hope you will be able to play it.


One day.....in the future....... ;)

Heheheheh, I KNEW you guys were still hiding some of those Tigers out there ;)

Yeah the holes in roads are everywhere since this winter it's terrible. Risking our lives, yes it did feel a bit like it, but you were actually much more at risk....I was CONSTANTLY watching the on-coming traffic. I witnessed a truck hitting a broken down vehicle on the shoulder a couple years back, and I can tell you that is a picture that is burnt in my brain. I was scared to death right there and I'm pretty much it showed all over....(I don't think I actually spoke very much)...

I also felt like some drugs-couriers when Ully and I exchanged parcels right there !!! It was nuts....indeed a shame to meet you Laschek for the first time like that and of course Ully again....

I can imagine how you guys felt after such a long time and struggling with the stuff. But seriously, get some ADAC membership esp. with a van like this....what if it had been 300 km. from us ?

Anyway, I really hope the four of us can have a good laugh about this all with some beer in hand in the near future....there was stress all over the place and LOADS of trucks driving past at 85km/h isn't helping to feel relaxed either.
