Quoted from Who-Dey:

I think them being smaller is kind of cool, especially for people like yourself that want multiple games. Seven real arcade games like you have would take up an enormous amount of space. Do you know what state this company is located in?

For the money these look really cool. Last year as part of a pinball trade I got a guys really high end MAME system. The guy showed me his receipts and he had well over $4K into the build + time (3 different control panels, light guns, rifles, etc)...The thing is over the top with like 30000 games. All the joysticks and buttons are super high quality along with the really large monitor and cabinet. That being said its way too much machine for what we use it for. We play like 30 games, and if u find a game u like its kind of a pain in the ass to program all the buttons and controls. I am sure your like me in that u remember playing a dozen or so games. I would get one of these cabinets and upgrade to the games u like. Than the game won't get stale over time. Even if your $500-$600 into the game its cheap compared to buying a pinball machine

Quoted from Who-Dey:

She likes it and thinks its neat but she doesn't care much about any if these games. She's just happy to see me happy lol. She will play a game of pinball and stuff here and there but shes not into it really. She enjoys watching TV. She watches the same damn shows everyday. Andy Griffith, Bonanza, Gunsmoke, King of Queens, Everybody loves Raymond and all that crap lol. She's seen all if those old shows 20 times each and still loves watching them lol. I dont get it but if shes happy then so am i.

For $400 it seems like a no brainer....its nice to have options beyond pinball in your game room

Quoted from Who-Dey:

The newer ones are getting a little more expensive I think because they are making them with better quality. Theres something about the nostalgia of them that is just cool. I could really see where a room full if these would be really cool and as addicting as pinball machines are.

Shit u could almost add 20 of these for the cost of a NIB pinball machine....

Quoted from Who-Dey:

I appreciate the offer, I may come and check it one day. What are your thoughts on the names? I've heard that some games they play accurately and others not so much? I dont know anything at all about them. Do you like yours?

They seem pretty accurate to me, but what do I know.....I don't notice any lag at all....my guess is if u had an original u would definitely feel the difference, but for most people they would have zero clue.
