Wow! I can't believe how quickly time flies... It's been well over a year since my last blog entry and sooooo much has changed since then. I've moved house, sold loads of machines (as I've got rid of my storage unit), sold three cars and bought two new ones!!! I think perhaps my new years resolution should be to keep this site a bit more up-to-date!
Anyways... Currently my machines live in my home office/ study - I have left;
- Asteroids cabaret
- Asteroids Deluxe cabaret
- Naomi Universal cabinet w/ Naomi 2+GDROM (currently housing Monkey Ball)
- Neo Geo cabaret (original UK license)
- Pac-man cabaret
- Q*Bert
- Star Wars
- Toobin'
The Star Wars has been faulty since January (didn't appreciate the house move...) and I've fixed it TODAY!!! Yayyyy!!! I've also replaced the 'Big Blue' capacitor and recapped the ARII board, so hopefully it shouldn't go pop again any time soon. It's taken me a whole 11 months to source one AVG chip (137179-001) which is all that went wrong with it before. Typically enough (like buses) I actually ordered two from a guy in America and then found one on eBay UK... Still it's always nice to have spares of these hard to find items.
