Typical - I've just driven from Sheffield to Wales and back today. I wonder if I passed to barn/warehouse along the way ...

Probably, likely a pile of classic Atari stuff, maybe even a MC cockpit.

Thinking about it, it had to be in Wales, I mean, it's logical. No one goes to Wales, nobody wants to go there, therefore perfect place to stash a load of classic cabs undetected...

Busy .....

There was a really cool meet over on J+. Chappy had another fun scots meet, and the ukvac boys did an epic arcade raid. All in all a great day for the arcade scene.

I dont see the need for any negativity this weekend.

That place looks familiar

Can someone that went to this tell me what the two mystery cabs were?

Was I close with my guess?

As were a few other UKVAC + JAMMA+ members. Indeed it was (and still is a great place). Perhaps not as many dedicated classic cabs in there as I would have myself but there's still no denying it's very, very cool seeing and hearing all of those cabs running at once. It really is the best arcade I've been in (for video games alone) since probably about 1990.

I believe the two mystery cabs were a Dig Dug (which I already knew about) and a Zaccaria Pac & Paint (which coincidentally I didn't know about but actually almost bought just before Julian did) so not absolutely everything in there is Electrocoin stuff.
