  1. Nice acquisition! How much did it cost?

  2. Actually… this is the first cabinet I ever bought. The one we played Donkey Kong on originally (after sitting in front of the computer of course). I’m stripping it down to get rid of it and make room for… well, I guess you’ll just have to wait for the blog post. :P

  5. To be truthful, I’m still at 238,600. I’ve hit a wall. I haven’t played much lately with work and getting myself in over my head with all of these projects. :) But I did play a game yesterday for the first time in probably months and scored 190,000+. Guess I’ll just have to start dedicating some evenings to practice.

  7. Hey! That’s crazy that you found me. Actually, I already got rid of the cabinet. I picked up some other games I had to make room for. But if you’re interested, I ran into a guy a little while back in Lexington that had a Chase cabinet he was looking to give away. I think it was close to being complete. He was looking to MAME it but went in another direction. I don’t know if he still has it or not but I can send you his email address if you’d like (if I can find it).

  9. Well, if I didn’t have a Donkey Kong Jr cabinet sitting in my garage I need to restore, I might be interested in it. I bought a cabinet from a guy in West Virginia that had a huge hole in the front of it. I’ve patched it up and sanded it, I just need to find the time to paint it.

    I’m telling you, you’re partially to blame for this new obsession. After I bought that MAME setup, it all went down hill from there. :)
