Happy Easter, guys!!!

In our latest episode we are using some newfound space to bring a real arcade classic (in orange of course) into the living room. afterwards, we're trying to find a suitable seating option, we're building a nice accessory for the cabinet (including a "platform" to present it) and finally - because time and space allow it - i'll be showing off my "mad gaming skills" :P (don't contemn me, i'll promise to get better within the course of the year).

if you wanna see what's new in the living room, enter the arkade right here!!!
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

Nice vid, the intro in the beginning is über cool. ;)
Do you make the post production of your videos on your own?

thx bela  :-*! yeah, it's basically a one man show (with the occasional cats in between). sometimes it's quite challenging to get out a video each week, especially when there are different cameras involved and the source material is pretty vast - while keeping track of everything else that's happening around me at the moment - and believe me, there's A LOT OF GOOD STUFF going on right now. i'm trying to keep up the "new vid every sunday" rhythm for the next few weeks until i'm ending season 1 (with a cliffhanger? 8)) for a longer (well deserved?) summer break. right now, i still have some great stuff i wanna show you, i'm roughly half a year behind, but i might throw in some newer stuff from time to time ...

walls can be everywhere, above us, below us, to the left and to the right - sometimes even where we don't want them to be! in this episode we are carrying out some necessary "wall jobs" like plastering, painting and demolishing - all for the greater good of Superully's Elektro Arkade. once we're done with this pretty boring and tedious work, we can focus on the bigger things which lie ahead!

i know it's not the most interesting of all the episodes i've done so far, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel in the form of an arcade party ...

but for now, grab something to drink (alcohol's fine ;D) and enjoy the latest episode!!!

Great episode as usual!  :spaceace:
But why did you need to remove that closet? Did I miss something?  Can't you just go round it? :)

Can't wait to see the master plan unfold. I salute you for all the work especially removing the tiles and the glue that was holding them. I build a gameroom from zero in a new basement and I feel your job is more challenging. Maybe you should not paint the ceiling but replace it with plasterboard. Might be faster.

Keep it up ..... And never give up  ;D

thx! you're right, i've thought quite a few times that building something new might have been easier, because nothing goes smoothly, there's always something unexpected around the corner. but that's also part of the fun: working around those issues. as for the ceiling: there's a reason why the paint job is not in this video ...  ;)

Keep it up ..... And never give up  ;D

i sure will NOT!!!
