No I was talking about Ully, although your collection is also quite impressive and balanced. Would love the play star wars on a real vector monitor, but the chances to own a game like that are not very big. There are other games i would like to own more then the vector games. Maybe I have to experience them more to appreciate them.

Cool!
I think you guys should let me buy that asteroids from Ully since I'm the new guy in town...just as a welcome gift  ;) ;) ;) ;)
Come on, it's my 7th post and I'm all shy and my eyes are wide and full of tears just like in mangas  :'(

plus SHE would be the very first dedicated cab of my collection.
plus I'm reading David Mitchell's "Black Swan Green" at the moment and they are playing asteroids in that book (the story takes place in 1982)
plus I just bought an asteroids cab so I will be able replace the missing side art with a true original one not a stinkin repro.

Ok, enough, I tried my best here  ;D ;D ;D

No ARCADE collection is complete without a vector game.

Hellomats don't even give the right time, even a stopped watch is more useful  ;) ;)

Nice find.

That Asteroids seems to have had its 1 and 2 player start buttons replaced with standard ones, normally they're cone switches unless there are versions I don't know about. Which probably means the control panel has been drilled for the larger diameters and will need to be fixed.

plus SHE would be the very first dedicated cab of my collection.

not that SHE thing again. why do cabinets have to be female? is it because only guys are playing those old stupid games? i never understood the desire to talk about a cabinet as if it were female. i might understand it (after some glasses of wine) for ms pac-man, but asteroids - c'mon. would you call "terminator 2" SHE as well? :P

Well spotted. No problem, got the correct buttons and LED switches on stock.

Others are though....
