    Didn't I see this game in Soylent Green?

    At least it LOOKS like the game in the apartment of the rich guy who got whacked....

    I never understood why people take these into their shitty driveways to take a picture of it. Do they have little kids locked in cages inside their house and they don't want people to see?

    @Sean Scrooby Grube: They probably keep them in their garage, and it's easier to wheel them out to the driveway to take a pic than to maneuver them through all the child cages in their living room to take a pic.

    @Hello Mister Walrus: "I prefer to sit down while playing video games."


    If by "sit down" you mean "lay dormant on the couch with head propped up by three pillows with the keyboard teeter-tottering across your belly while slurping Mountain Dew through a Flexi-Straw so as to leave the can parked stationery next to your head", then, yes, I agree with you.

    @Software_Goddess: I admit that when I was twelve I was building arcade cabinets that looked remarkably similar to this, except I was using components from Radio Shack to make things move and lights flash. Still, the concept is the same - minus the actual technology to have a working arcade game, mind you.

I'd set that box up on the porch, climb deep inside its mysterious darkness and pretend I was a refrigerator ready for shipping!

    AND YOU SHOULD MENTION THAT ALL THE PROCEEDS GO TO MUSIC FOR RELIEF. THESE WERE DONE BY GREAT ARTISTS.

    That's looks like an old Pole Position machine. I have a PP upright, and just like the old Bally/Midway uprights, I'd recognize that cabinet anywhere.


    Anyone that turns a classic machine, into a MAME machine, or any new game, should be shot on general principle.

    off topic: whats up with articles disappearing? the paintball turret and system 7 on iphone articles are gone, and articles have been disappearing randomly in the past too.


    Just wondering, would be better to atleast provide a "default" explanation for the reason of removal just to avoid giving people who click on a link to a post the old "404 page not found" error
