Anyone here collect Arcade Machines or Pinball?

So today I got a lead for a really good price on a DDR machine including freight shipping...

I'm debating on wheather I should jump on it since I currently don't have any room for one

nice, jess would go nuts for one, if i had a spare 2k i would have gotten a puri kuri booth a few weeks back

d'oh... I seriously didn't even intend to make that pun... but earlier today I finalized the deal... in a week or so I should have it arriving at my house

I literally have no more room for anymore machines, in-fact I'm going to need to sell a few of the machines that I currently have

Right now I've got
Double Dragon
Killer Instinct 2
Virtual On
Donkey Kong
San Fran Rush the Rock (x3)
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
and now DDR 8th Mix

I'm going to sell Double Dragon, 1 of the San Fran Rushes and UMK3

Oh god. If you weren't 2000 miles away, those are the three of your collection that I like the very most....

Also, congrats on the new machine!

If it wouldn't cost me both arms that are needed to play mk3 I would ask lol

Your getting rid of 2 of the best 3 games if only I had a nice big row boat I'd come and get them

[twistedsymphony]

Don't get me wrong, Mortal Kombat 3 is one of my all time favorite games but I had an MK3 as my only arcade machine for more than 10 years, so at this point it's pretty stale and I rarely play it.

I've already agreed to sell it to a friend who lives locally so it wont be going far

Double Dragon just isn't my cup of tea, however if I ever clear up some room I plan to fill the beat-em-up niche with a TMNT 4-player cab

[kittychloe]

Slim pickings in aus for a cheap ass, limited to $450 for now (bills) and within Sydney.. Hard to tell what machines are just remakes or simple paint jobs vs legitimate dedicated, can't trust Aussies not to rip you off lol jamma seem to start at $800 to $1200 here even when broken

The TMNT is definitely a must-have! I've been creating my MAME machine for over a year now (off and on -- but mostly off). Been purchasing individual parts and drawing (and redrawing) my plans/themes. I decided to go with the 4-player cab as I've often got a lot of people over the house. I don't really have the room right now for more than 1 so I've been really picky on the theme -- let's just call it a work-in-progress I'll post a link to my project thread on arcadecontrols once I get it into "progress" mode!
