I love that you keep your consoles connected, girlracer. A lot of folks post their game rooms, and the consoles just seem to sit on a shelf looking pretty. What's the point of collecting these consoles if you don't play them regularly?

I think it's great that you got a working arcade cab for twenty bucks. Cosmetic flaws can be fixed. Stretch that dollar!

You have the exact same Sega arcade stick I have! That awesome peripheral is made by Asciiware. It's great for playing streets of rage 2 and Turtles in time.

:shock: $20 for a working arcade! It would be perfect for a Mame conversion,it could turn into a nice project.Great collection especially the Genesis and Snes games.

the red N64 is beautiful, and I can't believe you got that tekken cabinet for just $20!

Very nice collection and setup.

it was on craigslist in the yard sale section, so i emailed them and asked them what they wanted for it, they said as long as i could pick it up i could have it for 20$ so i had it picked up within 2hrs, even tracked down someone with a truck

You can probably increase your atari 2600 collection easily but I did not see some of the actual consoles probably because of two missing pics. There are some items you have I was planning on acquiring like the nes powerglove, a Sega Nomad, and the voice and the quest for the rings game for odyssey2. Very nice collection, reminds me of mine.
