Hello From Newark

[Qubit]

Hi All.
I've been using the forums for a bit now, mostly chatting to forcefulfil about my new pride and joy I just bought from him, a Robotron.

I'm in my mid 40's and as everybody else on here seems to be I'm reliving my youth. That game ate my lunch money for 2 years

. I'm pretty good at it tho so it obviously paid off.

Other games I'd like to own are Scrambler, Tac-scan, Tempest, Ladybug, Space invaders and Hyper Sports. I need to move house 1st tho because I don't really have the space for the one I've got. I've had to strip it down just to get the bloody thing up the stairs because it was way too heavy wit only 4cm clearance.

Anyway, good to meet you all. well sort of.

Have fun.

welcome to ukvac

 

[Qubit]

It's the greatest game ever made in my opinion.
I'll never get bored of the thing.

 

[Qubit]

PS I meant to say sort of meet you since we've not really met as such. What i wrote seemed a bit rude.

 

[Alpha1]

We have meets! So just come along to one

 

[Qubit]

i might just do that! I didn't know there was still so much interest!

Hi,
I just realised that I signed up for this forum ages back but have been lurking and reading posts. Qubit, you're not far from me (Lincs) and around my age group too, although I'm scaling back on my arcade stuff rather than expanding. Always good to see the variety of folks that enjoy the old arcade scene.

I guess this counts as my first-post intro. Oh, I love Robotron too but hopeless at it.

There. I really should post here more, friendly place

 

[DanP]

Hehe, welcome too delta. Lurking a bit and getting a feel for a place before posting is no bad thing

Post up your collection details in the Members Machines section, show us what you've got.
