No food for the cat for two weeks ! ;)

Looking great !!!

I'm glad the Berzerk is still up and running :)

What's wrong with the WoW ?

Everything is soooo mint, it looks like pictures from the opening of an arcade in the 80's. :spaceace: :spaceace: :spaceace:
EDIT: but I'm a bit concerned about Markus, he seems to have mysteriously disappeared behind that curtain after his last "mistake"...weird...

Not so bad for a gameroom without racers  ;).
Your Missile Command looks like in a good condition too.

funny that your mentioning that - i've been thinking the exact same thing just the other day. once i'm done with the games i still need to finish (or get working again), i will most likely turn my attention to championship sprint. i need to have a driving game in my temporary gameroom! the question is going to be where to put it ... :P

Your Missile Command looks like in a good condition too.

i have done almost nothing in my MC, condition is pretty nice. it could use some new t-molding and minor tweaks, but that's it. the biggest thing i did was install a hi-score save kit along with super missile attack just yesterday!

Where are the neon, posters, arcade goodies, black light, laser beam and indirect lighting... it's a way 'too' clean, like putting games temporary in a grand-father room  :? No offense of course but that's my first impression 8)

Isn't there software to correct that ? I'm not an expert but I heard or read about that....not sure, but I though you can select what lens you used and the software corrects the distortion....don't ask me how/what software....

Great pics nevertheless....

no offense taken, bruno, not at all! BUT first of all, this is just temporary, hopefully i will be moving out in summer, so i'm not going to invest too much money into it. second, my personal opinion is that most of the gamerooms i've seen so far are totally overloaded with stuff - drawing too much attention away from the games. my future gameroom will have a nice 70s/ 80s color-scheme, it will (probably) have a couple of posters, it will have some (hidden) translucent tubes and a hi-score board, it will have blacklights and a blacklight carpet, but i won't be placing arcade goodies everywhere, i won't be putting up any beer signs or useless neon signs - in short: i won't put anything in there which doesn't serve a real purpose.

of course everyone has his own opinion on this - and that's mine. i personally think that a little less is much more!

Yeah that's a matter of taste and the fun part that is that you are totally free to choose your own style etc. I mean, for those who have relations, you know what I mean ;) ;) ;)

It's also fun to see what others do !!!

Your gameroom totally lacks vectors, black&white games, 1 or 2 EM games, plus at least one pinball!
 ;D
But otherwise great collection!  ;)
