    Not known on this part of boards so hi there

    I hope maybe someone can help me outMy man cave is now up and running and I have a corner that is screaming for a machine.

    Galaga,Gorf,Rally x were my favourites but I don't know how hard it will be to get a machine let alone a particular game.

    I see some of you folk have restored them ....is that the road I need to go down

    I'd like something with the coin op working as the lads have said they will play it like that to generate a few quid for the upkeep of the bar


    Any help is greatly appreciated

    All depends on your budget really.
    Rare enough to see any of those titles for sale in nice cabinets over here.
    You could always go with a 60-1 and a generic cabinet if your not a purest.
    I'd start there and see how it goes.

    Get onto Mitch or look for a generic cabinet with original CRT in it, you should be able to pick something up for €200-€600 condition depending, you can then buy a multi game (619 in 1 elf) to get you going, these cost €100-€150 depending on seller, most of the older games are well emulated. If you get mad into it, you can buy the originals of your favorites at a later date. These can cost alot, game depending.
    It'll be pretty much plug and play once you have a generic cabinet with the exception of adding a couple more buttons if you require 6button/player or you can do a re-wire(see my advert in the trading section;) to help you there)
