Title: Greetings from FL!
Post by: srarcade on May 13, 2011, 10:24:45 pm
Hello!

My name is Ryan, Im 30 and I've been into arcade collecting for 13 years. I live in Apopka FL and I have about 18 games in my garage arcade. I just picked up my first semi-nintendo related cab which is a dedicated R-Type in outstanding condition for the right price of $150! I have been a follower of John's arcade for some time, his excellent restoration work is a real motivator for my own collection!

Looking forward to making some new friends!

Ryan

Hello fellow Floridian! I don't have any cabinets just yet, but I'm looking to get one at some point.  I left all of my stuff up north before I came down to Florida.  What games do you have? I have a 4 player Sega Spiderman cabinet in mint shape, and the following JAMMA boards: Street Fighter Hyper Fighting, SNK vs Capcom Chaos, and Pit Fighter.  All of this is up north, but I may be down with a trade and can get the boards mailed down here.  I really need to find a cabinet.  Did you go to Game Warp at the Hilton on International Drive, it was awesome!

I get my fix in the mean time with my Disney Annual Pass at Disney Quest! :)

Had to mention it just in case you didn't know, they just opened a Dave & Buster on International Drive and they have delux cabinets of Daytona USA from 1994! Sweet!

Oh and if you read this John, I'm a big fan of Video Game Outsiders and always look forward to your arcade videos!
