Howdy,
I am in the position now to begin a collection.
I have been around the video games since the late 70s as I am sure many of you have too.
My first piece will be an original bubble bobble pcb, then I shall need a cab to obviously.
I have been a game player for years probably because I am an Indie game developer which as some people think isnt cool. Lines of code day after day can get a little mind numbing but figuring out how to do stuff keeps your mind in trim I guess.
Anyways, nice to meet you all :)

Hiya and welcome to the VAC. Original BB boards do come up from time to time but are quite pricey, you've picked a popular one for sure. If I were you I'd get a cab first and some not so expensive boards just to get used to handling them, plugging them in, etc.

What games have you released and on which platforms? Anything we might have played?

Dan

hmm, not sure if youve played any of my exclusive games but they are available on IOS and Android.
More on Android. My games website is in my profile( not sure if I would break rules by posting it here.)
I have worked on several code modules for some popular microsoft xbox and PC games though.
I did recreate several of the oldies,i.e. Galaxian, Space Invaders and Asteroids etc. However even though they didnt use the original sprites etc I had a run in with Taito and Atari and I decided to not fight when they asked for me to remove them.
In fact Namco have released lots of their retro game sprites last year; you are able to use them for free if you give them a cut of the revenue. Sprites included Galaxian. However they have only been released in the far east atm.
