About Me


I own a FamPuter, which is a 100% fake Famicom. And I do own Super Mario Bros. and Rockman 2 for it, which you don't. :P



I'm a 32 year old gamer. I cannot hang out with most of you, and you should not contact me to buy you cheap wine or cigarettes. I do not like jail. Seriously, I own all three consoles and I don't discriminate. Gaming is for fun, not for sissy slapfights. If you consider yourself partial to a particular console, I don't care why you don't own other consoles, I don't want to hear about it. If you're going to bitch about something, you'd better bring some hard evidence of why you're complaining if you want to cry on my shoulder.

Enjoy this wonderful picture of 2 generations coming together at last...

I'd link you to the story I read on engadget, but it ain't more than what I'm posting here.

The guy has a ton of classic arcade machines including Zaxxon, Galaga, and a game called Space War.



He has dubbed his "game room" Luna City.

I hate this guy, BTW.

If I ever find out where he lives, he is getting SOOOO robbed.

(edit: My bad. Dude's name is Peter Hirschberg. Again, getting robbed...)

Pics of his joint (Linking was broken, so click the link to see pics)

XXXXXX

Jesus, I need a pair of Jamz shorts, a hypercolor shirt, and a swatch watch and I'm 11 years old again.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I sent that guy's home arcade in as a tip months ago, but an article never came of it. That was way before there was video, and dear god do those sounds bring back the memories.

@reaprar

It's 2400 square feet of arcade space in his HOME.

That room is bigger than most people's homes.

I would put a bed in there and never move out. I can sleep under blacklight.

Wow you dropped a SWATCH refference... I have one on my wrist 24/7. It is light, the bands don't rott like leather and it makes me feel cool since I'll never own a TAG. That video does take me back to those smokey filled dark arcades with their sticky floors, and the pimple faced guy that gave you change. He was also the guy that would open the pin-ball machines if you tilted them. If I only had all the quarters I spent on Dragon's Lair..... I would have a shit ton of money...... to go blow on more games.

That's nothing. I have 3500 sq ft home video arcade. It has every arcade game ever made, and some that weren't.
