Don't do that! Such horrific images really aren't good for my poor, weak heart. I need to go lie down now. The Horror...
Ouch. That...that's sad. I remember thinking that the home consoles would NEVER catch up with the arcades, and even if they did, could you imagine what the arcades would look like?
tragic. hell yeah at that four player nba jam cabinet though. amazing.
@blehman
My point exactly. Too bad we were far too young and dumb to understand how impractical arcade machines really are. Arcade graphics still look amazing too me though. Something with the style...
I weep at that image.
I really miss the arcade experience. The sound of all the games mixing together, the thrill of running to get more tokens before the continue timer ran out, and the temporary friendships forged over games of Alien vs. Predator. God that game was a blast.
It's like looking at a picture of a huge grave dug for hundreds of people slaughtered during wartime. But with arcade machines.
WRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Ill gladly take any of those cabinets :(
I...actually shed a tear...
Its worse than Goatse....
Im working on my own MAME cabinet right now, so far I have most of the cab built... so I've basically barely started
Oh god!
Some one should really form a PETA for retro video games...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
*tears*
i went on a major cabinet bender about 2 years ago, it ended when i moved into a 2nd story walk-up :)
I weap deeply.
oh that hurts....
damn i'm a dork
Butmac: If you don't sign up for Allpeers and DON'T, under any circumstances, add me as "BrandonUndead", you may not find that I am sharing a folder of MAME cabinet resources. Just sayin'.
I must find this junkyard and get what scraps I can...what a shame. The retard that threw all those cabinets out must have no clue how much money those are worth.
And I would give a kidney for that NBA Jam T.E. cabinet.
The title says it all. I'm gonna go die now.
blast
Nooooooooo! All those dead coin-ops! :'O(
@brandonundead
welcome. welcome to my friends list.
oddly enough I was not going to sign up for allpeers tonight because a bunch of the other people in the CBM aren't on it and not sharing things.
Like I told D - I'm not going to put Flight of the Conchords - One Night Stand on it tonight. And my username will not be Butmac.
Remember when Pit Fighter had graphics that made your eyes bleed? What a rip-off though. It cost 50-75 cents to play and the mechanics were shit. But hawt damn it was pretty.
THE HORROR!
I just had a hernia
how terrible!
Arcade auctions for the win!
Seriously, if one is nearby consider going. There are amazing deals to be had if you're patient and willing to take what you can get.
why would someone do that?????? i don't fucking get it.
Oh god oh god oh god oh god oh god oh god
The horror... the horror...
That hurts, right here. *points to heart*
"The horror...the sheer, unadulterated, PG-13 horror!"
hamza, i couldn't have put it any better myself.
Damn, it says something about how obsessed I am when I actually felt a pang of sadness over that dump.
Oh the carnage! :(.
