  • Hello!
    Here is a new video of my home arcade, now thanks to my new pad... all in one place. This is a pretty low key video sort of if you just came over to my house (please don't do that) and I gave you a personal tour of the arcade. I was going to wait to make this video until every thing was perfect in the arcade which will probably never really happen.
    Thanks!
    Cassie

    I love seeing guided tours of people's home set ups like this, I don't have the space for anything like this myself, but it's really nice to see which games people choose or happen upon and what they mean to them. Thank you for sharing. ❤

    Loved the tour! Random favorites: the plush Snowbee on the Anti-Aircraft, Q*bert cocktail with the tiny 13", Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters, Mikie (w/ Locomotion!), Pac n Pal, Elevator Action (w/ Sea Fighter Poseidon, a really fun game!), and one of my all time favorites Smash-TV :)

    With all the clickbait and garbage on you tube it's great to see that this channel exists. I first started going to arcades in 1979 when my dad used tro take me on the weekends from about late 81 onwards i was visiting them on my own too. What i love about your channel is that i'm also learning something new like Track 10 being the first ever driving game. I remember playing a 2 player version of this in the winter of 1980 in the children's room ( a room at a pub that parents would leave their children whilst they did their drinking with the adults ) at the Red Lion pub in Thorrington, UK. Anyway, keep doing the videos as you're bringing as lot of joy to us arcade addicts :D

I also stabilize myself with comforting things like video games from my favorite era and videos like yours! Thank you for your content, and thank you for the service that you provide others every single god damn day. I'd love to kick it with you in a game room like that for sure.

    As someone who works for Parkland Hospital as a medical language interpreter & therefore w/social workers at both the hospital & clinics, I can see how hard, both physically & emotionally draining the job can be.
    I'm a big arcade machine fan, & while I have a bunch of games, I always wanted an arcade cabinet where I can play all my ROMs with. Not yet sure whether or not to go with a cocktail, cabaret or full size arcade cabinet. That'll of course will have to wait till I move from my apartment to a house of my own.
    Thanks for sharing your collection! ❤ Now I feel like dropping by.

    • @atrain818
      @atrain818 Місяць тому

      A regular full size cabinet will probably work best for what you're wanting to do. Nothing crazy big like a Darius or big konami cab. Atari dig dug style is common and cheap. Or a namco pac man style. A dynamo cab is better for fighting games if u need a lotta buttons. Cabarets and cocktails don't offer a lot of space inside them. If you're planning on putting a PC inside the cab. You could use a jamma harness and a Jpac to connect to the pc. They work well.

    Moon Patrol is one of my absolute favourites, The first machine I bought was a Low Boy with Mr. Do! another of my favourites. I bought that when I was 21. The was 28 years ago. I still have the PCB ;) at that time I bought a Street Fighter 2 PCB for $15, still have that and a Bad Dudes PCB as well.

    This is really good. I am an avid retro gamer/collector myself. I am planning on doing a basement arcade as well and am curious as to the utility cost of running your arcade? I know costs will very depending on what you have and how long you keep them on and price per kilowatt. I have a large collection of the replicade desktop games from new wave, pretty nice. Thank you for sharing and I have subbed to see more.

    • @VintageArcadeGal

  • @bobdobalina2931
    @bobdobalina2931 Місяць тому

    This is a fantastic mini arcade that you've built for yourselves. It looks and undoubtedly feels (I imagine) just like a full size arcade. It has that womb-like quality that draws you in, surrounds you with warmth, comfort and love, and doesn't assault the eyes with such nonsense as natural lighting. It's soft and dark - just how it should be.
    Unfortunately, due to a lack of space, I only have two games, an Asteroids Cocktail which is in virtually mint condition, there's not even any screen burn, and a Mr And Mrs Pac-Man pinball, which has never had a run of more than seven consecutive days without something going wrong, but it keeps me on my toes.
    Could I ask, do you know of anywhere I can purchase a volcano switch? My 2 Player button works but it doesn't flash. I am in England but will happily pay the price and shipping. I cannot find one for sale at all.
    Finally, thanks for the tour, I confess to being extremely envious, but also very happy to see there are people out there who continue to love and cherish these wonderful old games.

    Hey Cassandra. I'm getting ready to move in 2 months. I have 7 machines including a Simpsons and a gauntlet dark legacy (big heavy machines) .
    My question: Do you take the monitors out of the cabs before moving to the new house? (I will be having a moving company doing it). I'm trying to decide what the best or safest way to move the machine without breakage.

    • @VintageArcadeGal
      @VintageArcadeGal  Місяць тому +1

      Monitors are always safer inside the machines. I did move a few into the basement without the monitors just due to that I did it myself and I was too weak to lift em assembled.

LOL Happy Holidays to you and yours Arcade Gal, and your video was great as always, as it takes me back to a much simpler time of life. When figuring out what machine to put a token in was the depth of my issues at the time.
