Aero City Underground

[AeroCityMayor]

Hi y'all,

I thought it was about time I shared my arcade stuff with you guys. I have been a little reticent as my hardware/game choices are not a natural fit for all of the serious tackle you have here but I figured "what the hell!"

Cabs:

Aero City #1: the guddler
Aero City #2: the richy13
Aero City #3: the Fosters
Aero City #4: the Mellor
Aero City #5: the LoRez¹
Aero City #6: the thomj
Aero City #7: the LoRez²
Aero City #8: the Dundee

Aero Table: the cools

I fully concede that this choice of game/hardware my not be anyone's cup of tea on these boards but there are some interesting pieces amongst that lot.

I am most proud of my Psikyo arcade game collection as I am only missing Pilot Kids on Sega Model 2 hardware.

The Mahjong stuff has been very interesting as there is little, actually no information on the internet in English about any of it. I don't speak or read ANY Japanese so even getting this lot working was a feat of which I am immensely proud.

I have recently finished my cellar conversion and invited a load of mates over to help celebrate my birthday this year. You can read all about it here:

I am fortunate to have a group of friends and the cellar gets some great use 2 - 3 times a week at the moment and the centerpiece is a Vs Street Fighter setup. (which I don't actually play

)

I am going to blame guddler for the games room for two reasons. Firstly, I bought my first Aero City cab from him: secondly he "convinced" me that I could fit a kitchen which was finished at the same time as the "Fungeon".

Here's what guddler made me do!

Any/all feedback gratefully received.

Game on,

Ralph.

It's the awesomist collection of sega cabs in the UK

 

[strykr]

Its a very special sight seeing that many Aeros together

 

[RaveN]

Hi Ralph, superb job with the cellar!

 

[IDCHAPPY]

I love seeing all that crazy Mahjong stuff, even though I don't understand a work of it

 

[ZedEx48K]

I don't understand a work of it

Apparently English is a problem too

The conversion project was very interesting indeed. And I agree utterly with your characterisations of the original cellar design - definitely inspired if not actually used by serial killers. And the cabs - lovely!

Chapster - don't forget that now you're a mod you have the other option instead of a rimshot: offensive tag lines

Or just account password resets

Ralph is still mayor of Aero City.

I really need to learn how to play mahjong...

 

[JohnnyChaos]

Are you sure you don't want to sell me an aero city. You have far too many

Unsolicited, random, anonymous gifts FTW!

This bad boy arrived in the post yesterday and I picked it up this morning!

Well worth the arduous journey to the post office to pick it up.

Thank you very much to whomever - really appreciated.

I've picked out a spot for it already - I just need not to have consumed so many Foster's before affixing it

Cheers,

Ralph.

Thanks y'all for the kind comments. This was a mega project: I certainly bit off more than I could chew so I'm well pleased that it's finished.

Cheers,

Ralph.
