Well maybe he’s watching the thread.
You! Yeah you with no pictures of your game room, you know who you are (said in a funny way). Why don’t ya take and post a few pics of your game room! You know ya want to.
Hope that helps!
Be kind happy Santa.
Oh and BTW we all like to see each others game rooms. I know I do.
I’d be happy to post my game room, but is there a specific place we should? Merry Christmas to all the Secret Santas. I’ve been shopping and snooping all day. Tons of fun!
Oh! And the arcades will be replaced with pinball machines as I restore all my projects. Except Pac-Man. That’s my wife’s favorite!

The best place is on your profile page. If your collection is up to date with no pics, you might be sad when santa sends you sideblades to your favorite game...that you already had installed.

LOL. I seriously looked for 10 minutes to find where to post them and it showed up for me in my profile after you posted this. It’s a Pinside Secret Santa Christmas Miracle!! (PSSCM)
Quoted from LesManley:Love the DataEast Shoot Out pics and cool to see you still have yours too. Brings me back to when we were talking about scanning the art practically 10 years ago now. I see you don't have the side art on it. I have NOS side art for it that I haven't applied, not sure if I had it way back when we were talking before.
[quoted image]
Has it been that long? Yea, you and I talked about the side art, had someone that “may” have taken on scanning and vectoring the art, but it wasn’t high priority for them. Just got use to not having it, lol.
It’s now become my son’s favorite arcade game, even over the multi. Never did get an actual Shoot Out cab, it’s a Karnov that’s still wired as original, just added a second harness and custom adapter, so I can swap between the two. Also, my go to cab to play my Multi Williams JROK board, that funny enough, I received from a KLOV secret Santa.
I’m excited to do this, but man my secret Santa has barely used pinside lol. They didn’t even post in this thread. I guess they get something a little more generic because I have so little to go off. Oh well.

My secret Santa is the same. Luckily there were a couple ideas included with his information.

I've seen in past years others look elsewhere on other platforms (Instagram, FB, etc) if you can figure out their handles. And depending on where you are, Etsy has some unique customizable pinball items that can make nice gifts... Good luck, it's the thought that counts!

I feel like people are calling me out (do I have multiple Santas this year??? 
) so I took pictures. For me, my game room is a theater with some games in the back (aka: lobby). I have not hung up decorations because wall space is very limited.
Now the foyer before the theater has a bunch of movie decorations and props. There's also a wall of prop replicas on the stairs leading to the basement, including Freddy's arm coming out of the wall.
Anyway, enjoy, and sorry I haven't done this sooner (and I've been here since the first SS!). Please forgive me, Santa(s)!

Oof, that's something I hadn't thought of... Looks like I'm taking some pictures later tonight... Fails from a first-timer... Good lessons for year 2!

I think it will be a good idea for everyone to upload pictures. It will help a lot.
Quoted from Percula:I wish my guy had pictures of his game room .
Think outside the box, gift(s) doesn’t have to be game specific, or Gameroom related. Think of something that could be universally used or enjoyed, either for the machines or not.
Remember, it doesn’t have to be an item from their list, or ideas, just something where thought and goodwill was put into it. Message me, and I can give you some ideas to run with.

Exactly this!! Last year (I think? Years run together), my Santa bought be Jaws on 4k UHD as one of ny gifts. Was awesome, as my daughter loves shark movies. First year of this, I didn't buy my person anything pinball related and the person seemed to love it.
Got my Santa....Already been stocking them and funny thing is, its a person who I've seen and communicated with before in some of the threads I follow. Already bought a few things for them...More to come!
I’ve given suggestions and not given suggestions. Got great gifts either way.
I see a spot on the profile for uploading gameroom pics. Someone mentioned uploading other pics to the profile- where us the upload button for that?
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Pics of game wall, I love ""pin bits" and pieces.
Love the "pin bits" -- I have a little of that in my basement workbench area, mostly because I don't want to throw away stickers.

Interesting paint scheme. Looks good!
Quoted from dirkdiggler:Interesting paint scheme. Looks good!
A cold weekend project 
When I look at pictures of rooms I look at shelves ,tables all the back ground area to find clues . Stuff on the shelves and tables give me ideas depending on the pictures of course , so it’s just a little more fun that way. The picture that Hay farmer put up there’s a die cast motor cycle so maybe I would get him a die cast . If he was my person . That’s all just more fun for me.

Actually been playing it at the Ottawa Arcade, super fun game but damn punishing. Nip-It, played it a few times and know someone that has it in the area. Totally surprised by how fun it is, and cool to see that Gator working!
Sinbad got me back into pinball after a 20 year hiatus, used to play it every day in college, regret selling the one I had, was a 1 owner ,new condition

Quoted from TroyS:Awesome walls !!!! I see Harley in there. I got a Street glide and an old springer.
Thx! Was fun to just lay out tape with no measurements and hope for the best. The little Harley is a von Dutch. I have most of them , except 2 of the rarer, expensive (in my eyes) . I'm a 60s fan, Ed Roth. Von Dutch etc
20221120_185052 (resized).jpg20221120_185102 (resized).jpgSome last minute ideas, may come in useful if you wait for too long before shopping 
*****
So, personalized underwear anyone..? (@LesManley, let's also ask underwear size next year?)
Fruitcake.. fyi, fruitcake will last two to three months in the refrigerator without spoiling, and will maintain its quality if stored up to a year in the freezer.
How about a 6-pack of Natural Ice beer? Nothing says "Merry Christmas" like washing down a hefty slice of fruitcake with a couple of lukewarm Ice beers!
Honest, my Santee is going to be one lucky Canuck!
