Any idea what kind of place this is? A former operator, or private collector, or...?

Looks like a very relaxed old guy; the dudes that are interviewing go Berzerk on every title he reveals   8)

I've been wondering the same thing, what's the story behind this place? It looks like they've got ALL the pcb's and some amazing cabs and parts!

I think this is the videos I have been looking for!

I saw these a couple of years back but without the better editing and overlays.

He's a Japanese arcade owner/collector.

.....or any Namco Galaxian parts....? P1/P2 buttons...bezel....? :D

But this looks like the kind of guy who is not selling anything....

That La-Pa-Pa game looks fun !!!

That crazy climber like game looks to be one joystick ??



Amazing how much Atari stuff he has considering he's in Japan...3 Compiter Spaces. Too bad the video ends when they come to the cabs !!!

I think I've seen other video/pictures from this guy.

All this stuff stored in one area with no fire detection or extuingishing installation always gives me the creeps....you just can't help thinking about that when its your work....
