A few new babies for my basement
« on: February 22, 2014, 04:15:08 PM »
This is an insane week for my collection. I was lucky to get a Gauntlet, then the cabs from C4 arrived... and today I got a Galaga 88.
If this alone would not be enough to make me happy Jochen and Chris are on a roadtrip at the moment. The will bring Blasteroids, Space Invaders, Qix and OutRun later tonight. Hmpf... they all have to go to the basement. This means pain for my body during the next few days.

Here are a few pics of what is here so far:

man, you're stocking up faster than i can type. by the end of the year, you will have more games than i do, my storage unit will be empty, your basement crowded! love the gauntlet cab, but what's that ugly metal cage on the right side?
that galaga 88, is it the one that originally belonged to toralf, than changed hands with trinity and now ended up at your place?


If this alone would not be enough to make me happy Jochen and Chris are on a roadtrip at the moment. The will bring Blasteroids, Space Invaders, Qix and OutRun later tonight. Hmpf... they all have to go to the basement. This means pain for my body during the next few days.

ha, that made me laugh :D! you have guys doing the roadtrip for you and getting cabs from my place. i wonder who will be in pain over the next couple of days ...  :P
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

It was a pleasure to meet you, your friends and the basement yesterday/today. Take care of that Galaga88 :)

Roadtrip report to follow tomorrow. I'm getting old and need sleep...
