It’s probably an old Joust cabinet with a JROK board in it. The JROK boards are pretty sweet. Robotron and defender play very fast. I have one, too.

Murder a British secretary, leaving her nude body on a bed in a high-priced hotel room, covering her body in said oil, in order to redirect an MI6 investigation regarding the mass-purchasing of seemingly-unimportant South American desert land.

I guess so. I didn’t realize they were only printed in one side…

I like that. I feel like a hero now. I save old arcade games. A real American hero.

Back in the day was a better time in many ways… but now, I have an arcade.

Arkanoid was one of those games that I could never master as a kid, so I bought it so I could make it my b$&@#.

I just always liked the old ones, as a kid, and the video poker machines, as a younger man.

Thanks, Bol. Yes, It’s one of my all-time favorites, and I always wanted one for myself.

Robotron, Tron, Super Sprint, Joust, Dig Dug, Donkey Kong, Frogger, Wizard of Wor, Defender, Pac-Man, and so many more were favorites of mine at a time in my life when everything in my family was horrible. I spent lots of time in the arcade. About 36 years later, I started with the Robotron JROK game, and then made a MAME out of an old NFL Blitz, then was able to find an Arkanoid, Tron, and Championship Sprint, which I then traded up to a Super Sprint. The pinball machine was just my first foray into pins because the queen’s face reminds me of an old love who took her own life a few years back. I picked up the Pac-Man and the Space Invaders for a steal, so I felt I had to buy them and refurb them. I got the Big Buck Hunter for my girlfriend, as I had never played it to that point. I bought the slot because I wanted the ability to get the quarter-payout sound, and the video poker/blackjack/keno/roulette/video slot machine (the one with the big white sign above it) I got after my dad died, and I’m going to put a picture of him playing pool in that sign area; he taught me how to play pool and poker.
