Cool CRTs there. What's the size?


btw...are you guys planning to make signs for the games? With the manufacturer and the year they were released? I could help making them if you need some helping hands :)

Great news about the Frogger, a classic that could not be missing in the great line up of games, and personaly I love that it is the Euro version too :):)

I remember the stick not working 100% at Eurocade 2012 in one direction and I guess that is what Leo wants to have a look at ?

I took the liberty of putting it on the list, hope that's OK Leo !

About the monitors: sizes I think are 20" and the smaller one's 14"

About the signs:  Pieter ?

Our SpaceCastle Table is a German 'Lich'-Bootleg. Sorry, no genuine Cinematronics. It has a 'Hantarex'-B/W-Vector-Monitor installed. Pretty ugly late '70s' Woodgrain-Style  ;D

If you tried to scare me off you failed :):) Woodgrain is part of arcade history too and so are bootlegs, ESP. European ones are welcome to Eurocade of course ;);)

I put it on the list if that is Ok with you...

We were indeed planning to name every game, but I decided not to do this due to our very tight schedule and the shortness of the event.

Also this would meant that we would have to name everything (25 consoles, 50 cabs, 50 handhelds and of other stuff like controllers, rare games en memorabilia)..

I agree this might be a missed opportunity but there are other things that are more important atm..

But thanks for offering your help.  :)

I was dreaming of an app that scanned a QR code on every machine and produced all the info....but seriously who's going to do that, people want to mostly play I guess :)

Seriously, I would have loved to have at least some signs with at least some of the "milestone machines" but on the other hand, the selection of games is so great that about all of them are "milestones" in their own way....

It also would a bit ruin the "arcade feeling" we are trying to recreate ;)

I _do_ think Computer Space needs/deserves a sign with a bit of explanation though, being the mother of them all....just some short facts that it was the first ever, year of release, Nolan Bushnell....

Thorsten, big thanks for thinking with us and helping us out !!!

I cleaned the stick contacts.... But the stick design with blade switches makes it a very nervous frog. Tomorrow I will hopefully have time to drill the lockout.

I don't think Leo's Frogger has the original stick...

I do too and everyone has his favorites, this is the thing about the RGE event, we're trying to bring all sorts of classic gamers with all their own preferences together :)
