    Quoted from metahugh:

    I got to play the Star Trek Mirror Universe game for the first time. I was most impressed by the Nixie tube displays. That has to be the only game in the world with those installed, right? So amazing.

    Thanks - glad you enjoyed it.
    No, I think a couple of ?Italy? machines had nixie tubes. I stole the idea from a Xenon at TPF many years ago. However, I had to reverse engineering the existing plasma displays and make it work for the nixies. Was a lot of fun!

    Quoted from Hardsuit:

    I actually have a website bookmarked that has a modular Nixie tube breakout board available for (I think) $25 per tube. Planning on using them for the score display on a full custom steam punk Airship Pirates themed game I'm doodling up rough designs for right now.

    I *may* have 3-5 displays in various states of assembly... if you want something.

    Quoted from Hardsuit:

    Ugg, no, please. I have enough on my plate just getting my retheme of Student Prince to Polynesia done properly first, and I'm already distracting myself as it is with the ideas for Airship Pirates and Tiki Hut: Curse of the Black Pearl full customs.

    BWWWAAAHHAHA. Good, because I really have enough on my plate too.
    See - I know the feeling all too well.
