My Arcade & Project in Spain
« on: November 02, 2013, 02:07:22 PM »
Hello

Glad to find this fórum, great place to be and find lots of friends all arcade lovers :D

I live in Alicante Area in Spain, time ago I started the collection and you all know this can´t stop  :roll: only if you run out of money  :D
 
The idea is being a  Collector, protect and restore the old machines from "Mame cabs" , host meetings and tournaments, "being a cool spot in the "Spanish Arcade Scene" started with the Tournament Classic 80s and next one will be the Classics 90s by the 1 of December.

Here is a bit of history about the things we are doing:

Thank you every one for the warm welcome! I will love to have some of you around, I´m close to Benidorm, Alicante, Torrevieja Turistic places... maybe for the next Tournament?  ;D

The signs are done by a friend of mine here in Spain, he sells the  Arcade Signs in my web, you can find more info here:  www.arcadevintageshop.com


Can be any shape & colour you chose, I´m thinking to do next the Berzerk, Flynn´s,  Pacman...If any body have interest I will say to him to do a 10% discount for any member of this great forum  :D

Personally my experience is I was looking for this after long time for my game room, only find Hong Kong ebay stuff... but with neon or very bad led ones so bright... I was a bit worried for transport etc... so I know him was doing similar with elwire for bars, pubs etc...I told him to try and we make some designs, the quality is good, warranty and very fast delivery 1 week...


Some of them in my place :D

A TRON sign combined with a Recognizer would be great, I would surely buy some. ;)

Nice, it would be a deram having a place like that here in Italy ...

Out of curiosity, is the offroad cabinet original or a modified super sprint cab? It looks very different from the "common" cab
