Arcade Lifestyle / Re: How Did You Start Your ARCADE COLLECTION?

Thanks for your tips Sonic! Right now I am saving for some games and maybe in the future I will be able to also have a gameroom. For a start I want to have a MAME arcade, so I can be able to play some of the classic arcade games while I am still saving for individual arcade games.

I also started talking to my wife about getting arcade games. I only told her that I would be getting a MAME arcade, to which she said ok. I have to go slow, or she will go beserk.

I checked a post about your gameroom "Yesterdays". WOW :shock: I specially like your Sega Saturn Station since it is my fave console. Really Cool.

Hello Everyone:

By chance, I discovered this forum, when I was looking for info on arcade games and it totally renewed my interest in arcade games. I live in Monterrey, Mexico and from the 85-94 period I was a regular visitor to local arcades. Weekends were spent in tokens playing classic games like Outrun, Hang On, Super Hang On, Turbo Outrun, Ikari Warriors, Daytona USA, Shinobi, Ghost n Goblins, Moon Patrol, 1943, Pole Position, Double Dragon, Rampage, Gauntlet II and many more.
As you can see, I've always been a massive fan of SEGA arcade games.

I've been reading your posts and I really enjoy looking at pics of arcade games you have bought in the past. I am also checking constantly for updates to the construction of the new section in Darth Nuno's lair.

Anyway, I'm sorry if I've already bored you, but I want to ask you: How did you start collecting arcade games? Where do you look for them? Any advise will be greatly apreciated.

Thank you

Gabriel
