Title: [Wanted] EM Games
Post by: Superully on December 13, 2009, 11:14:22 PM: a few weeks ago i played a couple of those old electromechanical games (the predecessors to videogames) at a friend's place and i must admit: THEY ARE FUN!!!

but obviously those cabinets are even rarer than arcade games, because i've only seen a handful of them on sale. i'll hopefully be getting this one http://marvin3m.com/arcade/msubmar.htm (http://marvin3m.com/arcade/msubmar.htm) soon (if the seller finally delivers), but there are some other games i'm chasing, too!

so, in case you know people who might be selling theirs or if you have one on sale yourself - i'm the man to contact (as always ;))!

BTW, yesterday I saw a PacMan on Marktplaats.

yes, stuff like this, but a little bit newer. and not just games with a gun attached ... there are so many wonderful machines out there!

i'm still looking for a vectorized file of that control panel front (WITH the copyright message). someone promised to do so, but disappeared and his email address is no longer valid. and NO, it was NOT that guy from australia!

If the deal falls through I'll let you know.

Here's a video of the game, but it's NOT the machine that's on sale. Gotta love the 8-track player in there for the sounds !

Looks great, I'm also looking for these games, but I didn't find any in Europe.
Andre, can you ask for more pics, please? :D
