It's me

[JMP]

Hello all, just joined. Only got the one vintage arcade machine at present, a rather nice Marble Madness but also a couple of pins; Judge Dredd and Dracula plus Junk Yard on it's way shortly.

Hopefully moving in a couple of months to a bigger house and games room so looking to expand the collection. Nemesis in an original Electrocoin Goliath cab would be nice !

Located near Preston in the NW. Grew up with the Blackpool Arcades of the 80's and have some great memories of them.

Anyway off for a scout now. BTW, I can't reply to PM's do I need a post count of ten before allowed to do this? Ta.

Hi and welcome!

Get some pix up of your Marble Madness and your pins!

If you get stuck for a Nemesis - I have a pcb somewhere which I would sell.

I think you need 3 posts before you can PM - at the worst it is 10 - so you are only 4 off

Here you go, very cramped currently. The two pins will be shortly up on their arses so I can get the Junk Yard in before I move:





Thanks for the welcomes BTW. Just been reading the arcade raid thread from over the years, fantastic stuff ! Can understand the thrill of the chase, been doing this with vintage synthesisers for 25 years.

Thanks for the Nemesis offer, that's what my PM was about from someone else but can't reply yet. What do these tend to go for? I haven't got a clue. Hoping to get one in an Electrocoin Goliath type cab eventually but realise that's probably not going to be easy (new to video arcade machines). This and MM are my favourite arcade games of all time.
