    I just saw an arcade and pinball video of this guy who has been collecting pinball machines since he was a kid and I feel I need to show you.

    He said he has like 90 machines. I swear this guy has more money invested in this basement than my dad has in the house I live in, and I live in a good neighborhood. I mean just Twilight Zone alone can be $9K. I can tell you this, I would love to spend Friday night in that basement. I wonder what this guy does for a living that he can afford all that.

    There’s a question I have to ask, and I’ve already asked YouTube with so far no answers: Where is there a good place to buy arcade machines excluding eBay and Craigslist? I don’t want to have to travel cross-country to pick it up and I don’t want to spend an arm and a leg to get one. So where is there a good place to get arcade games easy?

    Pinside.com

    They have an active marketplace with geographical searching and a LOT of really cool and knowledgable collectors on that site. It’s pretty much the go-to website for pin collectors.

    Of course, you can always order them new in the box from the manufacturer and have them shipped right to you.

    I know about Pinside, but that’s for pinb~~~~. I’ve already built up a major wish list and I get weekly updates every Friday. I want a site for arcade games, not pinball games.

    I have just one mechanical game .. the old Elvira & Party Monsters which I use almost every day. Thanks for posting this as pinball in the evening is something that has become, quite often, part of my new life.

    Build your own arcade. Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator (MAME). My brother built one and he has over 1,000 arcade games on there. I visited one weekend and finished till the end an arcade game that I played when I was a kid. Good times.

    How does a women change a light bulb? She holds the light bulb in the socket and expects the world to revolve around her.

    I play fetch with my Doberman inside the house: that’s about the only game I have a taste for these days.

    Society asks MGTOWs: Why are you not making more tax-slaves?

    I think I found a site and it’s better than eBay. It’s called Game Exchange (https://gameexchange.biz/). The prices are better than eBay and the shipping it reasonable. The only downside so far is that it doesn’t have all the games and pins I want. If anyone has any further information that they can pass, it would be appreciated.

    Here are the games I want and if Game Exchange has it or not:
    Pinb~~~~:
    Whirlwind – NO
    Indiana Jones – NO
    Star Wars Trilogy – NO
    The Addams Family – NO
    Twilight Zone – NO
    Monopoly – NO
    Theatre Of Magic – NO
    Twister – NO
    Elvira And The Party Monsters – NO
    NASCAR – NO
    White Water – NO
    Ninja Turtles – NO
    The Simpsons – NO
    Funhouse – NO
    Bugs Bunny’s Birthday Ball – NO
    Roller Coaster Tycoon – NO
    Terminator 2: Judgment Day – NO
    Mustang – NO

    Arcade Games:
    Mortal Kombat I – YES
    Mortal Kombat II – YES
    Pit Fighter – YES – Cheap
    Street Fighter II – NO
    Ninja Turtles – NO – DAMN IT!
    Turtles In Time – NO – DAMN IT!
    The Simpsons – NO
    Final Fight – NO
    Ridge Racer – NO
    Gauntlet – NO

    It looks like only 3, but that’s a start. I’m going to look further into it to see what else there is to land.
