Hi guys, only recently discovered this forum and have enjoyed having a browse through each sub forum. Lots of interesting threads to pour over.

I’ve been into video games for a long time but missed out on the golden era of arcades having only been born in 1988. I do however keep an eye out for arcade cabs in the wild even though it’s rare to come across anything worthwhile.

These days my favourite home consoles are Famicom, PC Engine, Mega Drive and Neo Geo although I also really enjoy Saturn, J360 and N64 too. My main reason for joining the forum is to delve into the world of PCB/Supergun and to learn a bit more about the technical side of things. I am in the process of clearing out a lot of stuff I have accumulated over the years to focus more on arcade gaming, less is more after all.

My electrical skills are poor but I have managed to wire up a crude supergun setup this year and have now got the bug. I currently have no space for a cab but would love to own a Sigma and a few PCBs to accommodate my MVS collection. I also want to experience the frustration/pay off only this side of gaming can deliver :p

Thanks for reading, happy gaming :)

Tom

I am trying to reign in the console collecting. Got a few PCB purchases in mind, mainly games that I really want to play to death and 1cc. This hobby can get gluttonous sometimes. Nothing wrong with that but it is nice to step back and have a clear out once in a while
