  • In this video I go through the games purchased in a massive warehouse raid this week in the Dallas Fort Worth area. 110 games, 100+ PCBs, HUGE lot of parts, and more!
    This is the beginning of a longer series documenting the repair, restoration, and game play of these games.

    I remember as a kid my dad was best friends with a guy who was an auctioneer. He let us into a warehouse one Saturday afternoon after an auction, and it was wall to wall video games! I thought I had died and gone to Heaven.

      patluvsvettes Lucky. And here I am drinking soda pop and a slice pizza and wondering if people are saving all of them arcades at the arcade graveyard. If only I can afford a personal truck...

    I spent several days trying to find a Dig Dug MAME rom that would run on my Super Retrocade console. It's one of the most epic and iconic classic games of the entire arcade era.

    We used to thread a quarter on a string and play all day on some of those machines, lol!

    I am just now getting into arcades, till learning alot. All I have is a MAME machine and Ms. Pac-Man and also Daytona USA Twin so far.. More to come but there expensive wish I had all those arcades..lol

    • @TheArcadeGeek
      @TheArcadeGeek  Před 8 lety

      +Digital Encom That almost exactly how I started. It snowballs on you and before you know it you have 20!

    • @DigitalENCOM
      @DigitalENCOM Před 8 lety +2

      +TheArcadeGeek I actually got into it by mistake I guess you could say. I was looking for examples on what to do with my game-room/theater-room and thought an Arcade would be cool. And I found a nice Ms. Pac-Man Cab in my area by my area I mean 3 hours away..lol They wanted 350 for it and I got it for 250 and while I was there they said they had a full size air hockey table they wanted to get rid of as well because there grand-kids were all grown up. Said if I would take it with me I could have it for 75 bucks... I plugged it up and made sure it worked and took it as well. So I came Home with an Arcade and an Air Hockey table that day (1 year ago). And ever since I played Ms. Pac-Man I was hooked. So the next thing I tried was building a MAME Cab then just 5 days ago I bought a Daytona USA Twin for 900 bucks. It was steep but I really wanted it and they dont come around in my area of the sticks..lol

    Wow! Beyond impressed with this collection of game. I was hoping to see more videos on your channel of you working on them, guess that's not in the works with this video being a year old. Any updates?

    • @TheArcadeGeek
      @TheArcadeGeek  Před 7 lety +1

      heya thanks! I actually have shot new videos but need to edit them a bit before I post them. I took the winter off from working on games and have just started getting to new projects within the last week. Hoping to have a few new videos posted later this month! Some of them will be older footage from last year and others will be new projects I am working on as we speak. Stay tuned! :)

  • @train.sleep.eat.repeat5278

    Just got my parts for my operation wolf,gun,base, marquee etc. Am going to build a cabinet.any chance you could give me the dimensions for op?

    • @derekasbury
      @derekasbury Před 6 lety +1

      wish I could help, but we sold those a few years ago. Maybe try a post on KLOV as i know many people there have the game and can help. good luck!

  • @burn646
    @burn646 Před 9 lety +1

    this seems like a time where you should let your fellow DFW klov members help out with this and or at least come check out your place. at the minimum you need a review party at some point where Channelmanic and others can come and congrats you on this epic score.
    FYI this is C65Mustang from KLOV
    again super awesome deal

    • @TheArcadeGeek
      @TheArcadeGeek  Před 9 lety

      Sounds like a great idea! Once we get a little further along, we will do just that.

  • @marcosaguilera3312
    @marcosaguilera3312 Před 8 lety +1

    That street fighter 2 is a bit interesting, buttons on opposite sides? Never seen that before, I'm assuming a convert from a dual stick game....?

    • @TheArcadeGeek
      @TheArcadeGeek  Před 8 lety

      +Marcos Aguilera yeah that was an odd conversion for sure. Never tried to play it with two people but I can imagine that it would have been a pain...

  • @keithciaccio7987
    @keithciaccio7987 Před 7 lety +1

    Have any of these still for sale?

    • @TheArcadeGeek
      @TheArcadeGeek  Před 7 lety

      Unfortunately no. We sold off the games from this lot last year. I do have a few games that will be for sale this spring though. A Donkey Kong and Neo Geo 4 slot for sure. Thanks!

  • @jables3377
    @jables3377 Před 6 lety

    What was the cost of the lot?

    • @TheArcadeGeek
      @TheArcadeGeek  Před 6 lety +2

      We spent $25k on the lot and ended up selling a large portion of it for about $45k. We also each kept about $5k in games, so we turned the original $25k into $55k after 6 months.

    • @micowoods9534
      @micowoods9534 Před 4 lety

      Omg 25k all I want is robocop R-TYPE and my fav of all time SHINOBI ❤️

  • @HaroldsStuff
    @HaroldsStuff Před 8 lety +1

    So you brought all these games & hired a building, are you a millionaire? Cool haul though :)

    • @TheArcadeGeek
      @TheArcadeGeek  Před 8 lety +2

      +Harolds Stuff lol I wish. We got a great rate on rent for 6 months while we were selling them all. Was a lot of work to move 110 games in 6 months, but it was fun! :)

    • @HaroldsStuff
      @HaroldsStuff Před 8 lety +1

      +TheArcadeGeek I bet moving all these games was a pain! Cool icon by the way, we both got taste lol :)

    • @TheArcadeGeek
      @TheArcadeGeek  Před 8 lety +1

      +Harolds Stuff it was for sure, but was worth it!

    • @TheArcadeGeek
      @TheArcadeGeek  Před 9 lety

      Wish we had that board in the pile. I have an Elevator Action that I could use. That game was a conversion anyway I guess.

  • @jamieshows1564
    @jamieshows1564 Před 7 lety

    Just give it to me for free.
