Seeing that kid on the SH deluxe brings me back a lot of memories.
Wow, 2 starblade in a row... I love this!  :-* :-* :-*
Nice place, but it would deserve more 'classic' cabinets (or you didn't show them on that video?)  :P

Thanks for sharing your video.
Space Harrier and  Rampart are the gems in your collection  :-*.
What is the game with the white motorbike ?

Of course, more pictures please !

nice place, jealous of the space harrier deluxe  :)  1st step done (collecting cabs) now the finishing touch, decorating the room.

To bad the pictures and movie are of bad quality, because the place deserves better and i'm just a newcomer in this hobby so i don't recognise the cabs without reading the marquees  :(

I agree with Ully, I would'nt decorate too much and I already like it as is.
Maybe just the name of the place in giant letters on the wall above the cabs and some cool lighting.
After all it's a public place...

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)


So you don't like our gameroom at all??  With the marquees covering the light ropes? The huge TRON display? The Space Invaders-stickers on the wall? The small LED-Atari-Sign? :'(  :'(

Hey, I didn't say "Cover all the walls with posters and marquees"

A poster here and there, maybe a nice (arcade related) neon sign and some coloured lights in the corners (maybe on the floor, lighting towards the ceiling) will do the job.

I have collected some arcade posters (large bitmap files) if you need any :)
