This would be my pinball game though
Of course, to get the real ending, you have to do the whole thing twice...One would have to be Joust since I played competitively. I still play the MAME rom occasionally but I'd love to feel a real Joust cabinet again.
The other two would take some thinking.
Perhaps Jr. Pacman, maybe the original Ghosts and Goblins so I could spend the rest of my life trying to get to that damn castle.
Had this one last year too! Got it working with two of the three steering wheels and then sold it off. NES version is a classic and plays great with the 4-score multitap.Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Offroad
I recently traded away my T2 pinball game. I put a ton of work into fixing her up. Played really well.
T2 is probably my second favorite pinball. Never could find one in decent shape for a reasonable price. These days...unless you have tons of money to burn though, getting any pinball is an investment lol.
Thankfully I got in not too late, T2 was only $900 but not in great shape. Pinball is ball-bustingly expensive right now. Explosive growth for sure.
Is CL the main place to get classic pinball machines? Would love to get a decent condition copy of Pinbot but don’t know where to even begin looking for it.
You have two of the PCBs I’ve always wanted (KI & KI2). Only 2 PCBs I own are pretty redundant...

...not just because they are both MVS, but I already have an AES. Already have both of those titles on AES too. Only other MVS game is Bust-A-Move/Puzzle Bobble (never released for AES).
Really need to expand the MVS collection.
Is that a sewing machine?

Why, yes. Yes it is. Doesn’t every game collector have one?Is that a sewing machine?
LOL! ...but there is a nerd-crew reason for having it on the shelf with game stuff:All self respecting cosplayer own Singer sewing machines!

I'd like to find in good condition a used industrial sewing machine at a decent price. When I was 18 I worked at a leather company, and on my own time I could use all of the industrial leather equipment and made custom upholstery for my '68 VW Beetle. It has been 38 years but I'd like to try my hand at that again.Why, yes. Yes it is. I got it around the same time as my Neo Geo boards early last year. Here is a pic from around that time where it also happens to be in the frame with some Neo Geo stuff (MVS arcade boards):
It was a $70 Goodwill find:
Believe it or not, I always checked the sewing machines section of thrift stores looking for one of these. It finally paid off!
Still wondering what would excite me about a sewing machine?
LOL! ...but there is a nerd-crew reason for having it on the shelf with game stuff:
It’s the Game Boy Color sewing machine.
Facebook Marketplace led me to a second local one last summer:
Significantly more yellowed but I bought it too. No, I didn’t need/want two. I was after this:
The first one was missing the GBC game pak though the Game Boy Color itself showed up a couple days later (priced separately). The game pak probably showed up with the GBC and someone bought that as a loose game before I found the GBC. I also found the pedal separately.
