Looks like a nice GREAT place !

:)


Needs some deco IMHO, but that's very satisfying. How large is your "lounge"?

Wow, so cool that you actually did it! How many machines are there now? And is everything working?

nice, although it's not my selection of games. regarding the decoration: i wouldn't put anything else in there if i were you, imho some nice lighting and a cool floor (perhaps some toppers ;)) are good enough. i never understood the need to put marquees, beer signs or license plates on the walls. LESS IS MORE!!! 8)
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!
