Below are my games! I get asked a lot about where I get my games and how much they cost. Well, I mostly get them from networking with other collectors, Craig's List, eBay, and "raiding" old operators warehouses. Some games I got for free and some cost as little as $25.00. I have put a lot of work into these games as often they are not working at all when I get them. So, if you are interested in getting into this hobby, don't be afraid to purchase broken games and fix them yourself. It can be very rewarding and fun! And most importaly, get out there and meet people! Once you know who's who in your area it makes it much easier to acquire these games. If you are just a lone person on Craig's List searching for a game or three you will not have very good luck and you'll most likely overpay.

Clink on the links below to learn more about the games including videos, photos, links, etc. Games with the YouTube logo have only a video. I'll be adding more videos and information to this page from time to time.

I need to update this page with thumbnails of all the games!

Here's a list of games with no thumbnails that link to YouTube videos, etc.

Hey John, I remember you saying something about having to put a cell phone battery on your Zoo Keeper or Tapper PCB to help save scores. Does this work for any PCB and how would you go about doing it on a JAMMA board? Thank you much.

I love the site. I just wanted to let you know that all the knowledge in your VS. Tech section, as well as in your videos, has been instrumental in me really understanding my red tent after I bought it. Thanks!

What do you think is the market value of a working VS Freedom Force PCB? I just bought one and may be looking to trade or sell it.

The Rescue Rangers cart in your PC10 is actually designed by the same guy that is head of all game production at Capcom today. He also is most well known for Megaman/Rockman.

You seriously need a traditional fighter like SF2. Maybe you've specifically tried to avoid silver age fighters... dunno

John, I love Baby Pacman and your
Super Mario Bros. Mushroom World pinball.
How come Baby Pacman wasn't working when
you bought it?

Great website! What's your next project?
John

Yes, $950 is too much for that Cocktail.

You can buy the 60 in 1 JAMMA boards for about $130 and then find a good used JAMMA cocktail for a few hundred dollars. It's an EASY install if the cabinet is already wired JAMMA.

hi john is $950 to much for a 48 in 1 cocktail unit. i have limited money and space so this sounded good except for the $950. thanks.

Street Fighter didn't pave the way for anything on this page! :)

Maybe some day I'll get a Fighter but it's a low priority.
Rob
10 Feb 2009, 07:27
I do agree everyone should own one fighter game and SF2 paved the way!!!!
John
09 Feb 2009, 22:07
Street Fighter is not an earth shattering cab to me!! I like the true classics. ;)

17 Jan 2009, 14:37
how about getting earth shattering arcade cab like Street fighter 2? your collection is lacking that good sir.

Looking good so far. My personal website is about my muscle cars but I plan on adding a video game domain this year so I can get a website for my arcades going.

Nice collection dude...!

I've already begun drafting up plans for my own website with the g/f. We're going all the way with ours...'cept for repair and restoration techniques, just the collecting part.

Good luck with the site...keep it up!!! ^_^
