Alex_the_Kid says Hello to all Arcade Fans
« on: February 27, 2013, 09:25:44 AM »
Hi to all of you,

As always a short presentation:

My name is Alex and i live near Melk in Lower Austria.
I`m 44 years old, married and have one son with 13 years - he is also a big (little) Arcade Fan - like father, like son :-)

I`m an Arcade Fan since i was a Teen and about 4 years ago i bought my first Arcade-Cab - an Asteroids Cocktail Table - love this game.
In the meantime i have a few more cabs and really a storage problem :)

Here are a few pics from my gaming room - it isn`t ready - but you can play - this is the main thing.

Hi Alex, nice classics you have there and Melk is also beautiful.
 I also like the Centuri Vanguard, quite rare in Europe. :spaceace:

Where's my posting? I posted right after Etienne  ???

Nevertheless...ein "Herzlich Willkommen" nach Österreich! :)

Nice cabs you have there. I would love to have a Sprint-Cab in the future  :-*  Must be great fun to play with one or even two other players.

here are some other pics from my cabs - most of them stands in the cellar but our garage is also full of Arcades - no room for cars inside  :oops:
(my wife was a little bit angry on the beginning but now she is getting used to this situation  ;D        )

I have also leased storage room near our home - pics from that location coming soon.

In the moment i`m working on 5-6 Cabs simultaneously - Salamander (Konami) - an undervalued but great game in my opinion - for two players simultaneously - FUN guaranteed, also Asteroids, Jungle Hunt, A.P.B. WITH seat (Thanks Ully) and Space Invaders.
