Btw, I actually think the crane game is a great addition. Really adds that genuine arcade feel to the room

That little arcade room looks very nice. Congrats on owning your own house!

Re: My Own House = One Big Game Room
Agreed. Getting rid of that nasty carpet and curtains made a huge difference, and those shell chairs look great next to the cocktail machine. Very nice all around.fvgazi wrote:Besides from the sick gaming collection, the actual work that was done is amazing! I'm loving the green room, brick walls, and redone floor. It adds excellent ambiance to gaming.
I could only dream of doing something like this!

gaming wise unknown. as far as the work on the house, me and my teenage nephew done the floors, painting, and etc. while my brother did laying of flooring in my office and laundry room, and put the walling up in the arcade. my dad did electrical stuff. so i have no money in labor, i think we did it all for under $3000, which my mom paid for. luckily i didn't have to put any money down on the house and the sellers paid the closing cost.The Last Horseman wrote:This is really awesome.

That's an awesome use of that Pepsi push letter menu board. 
I didn't notice how crazy low the windows in the green room were when you posted the empty shots before.
