I have a PS3, Wii, and a fairly decent gaming PC.

But the pièce de résistance is my arcade machine. It's a "fatboy" with a 26" 15kHz Sega arcade monitor, 2 joysticks with 6 buttons each, coin mechanism that accepts $1/$2 coins, and stereo sound. I completely rewired it to JAMMA standard and it has a fairly new arcade power supply. It can run arcade boards fine, but at the moment I have a JPAC & PC in there running MAME.

Worst thing is, my housemate (and landlord) won't let me move it in to our place for whatever reason. At the moment it's sitting at my parents' place gathering dust. I've been thinking of selling it, but I can't bring myself to do it.

Will get some pics next time I go to my parents' house.

Having seen bj74cruiser's EM collection personally, it's a thing of beauty.

There's something very special about pre-CPU arcade hardware. Great to see the stuff in action (and people who collect/restore that sort of thing).

How awesome is this forum?
I have a small hardware collection only:

NES (toaster)
SNES (x2)
Mega Drive II.
GBA, GB Pocket

I'd *love* to get my hands on a C64 and Apple II/c but they're rare around these parts. I'm also plotting on acquiring a Famicom because they look awesome.

Hardware aside, I'm building a collection of old PC adventure games. Man I love those things

They're rapidly becoming extinct too.

I've got a SPARC server I'm eBaying soon. People are paying a fortune for those things for spares.

As promised... Crappy phone pic:



Those diagonal lines aren't on the screen, it's just the photo. In reality the screen is amazing.

It's definitely something that you need to see with the naked eye to appreciate.
