Yeah happy with it. Look decent but not much effort. Have a lot of those boxes already, 2 quid a pop.
Got artwork off Internet, printed them in the library on the way home, got some laminate stuff in Mr price, all done.
Works out about 2.70 per finished box which isn't the end of the world, and I'll do them in batches so I don't feel stupid forking out for a load at once!
Nice one on the bubble bobble. Been meaning to get those lost cave/redux roms for the boot I have. Picked up two tetris games and two golf games the other day, corroded leg on one eprom snapped off, another is missing an eprom, one is plain dead.
I need roms, is what I'm saying
Where'd you get the boxes? about time I replaced the pieces of crap I have mine in!0 -

Some local stationary shop, "missive by bankers box", and the product number/code on the box is 72721.
I was really after some black boxes but there's only so much effort I was willing to put into cardboard
Fed ex boxes are supposed to be good too but no idea where to get them I'm afraid.
It does look a helluva lot better than bubble wrap when it's all done though0 -

I got myself a My Arcade Dig Dug Micro Player the other week.
Turns out you can change the jumper connections inside it to play its versions of Galaga and Mappy as well. It can also play Rolling Thunder but that requires two buttons instead of the one the Dig Dug unit had.
I somehow killed the audio of mine during the process

Borderline retro I guess but got a ps3 slim yesterday and a couple of controllers for 40 spots. Turned out to be a model that could be modded for custom firmware. Looking forward to checking out Journey, The last of us and maybe the HD remake of Shadow of the colossus and googling tonnes of best games lists

"new create city"
Got another few of these boxes done up this evening. Some of the artwork created for arcade games is amazingly good, its a bit of fun going through the best flyers and whether the euro/US/jap versions are better.
Wont post any more as im sure people get the drift, but it encourages you away from the aul bubble wrap :P

New arrivals. Got nice deals on all of these...
Fatal Fury, the first game in the series. It has dated severely compared to its arcade rival Street Fighter 2 but it is a still classic.
Metal Slug, first game in the series and one of my favorites.
Samuari Shodown IV, I have never played this one, apparently its is pretty bad. We shall see.
League Bowling, this is one that my local arcade had. I played this to death when I was a young lad.
Samuari Shodown II, easily one of the best 2d fighters ever made. Have never played this one except on an emulator. Fun times ahead.0 -

Samurai Shodown IV is highly regarded actually. III was a bit of a disaster as the series transitioned from the fighting style of 2 to 4.
I'm not a fan of 4 though. The series went more combo heavy and lost its identity to become more like other popular fighters. Still think 2 is the best in the series as it relies on finding an opening and getting in big hits. Last blade kind of took over where Sam sho 2 left off.
Apparently the latest Samurai Shodown is incredible and a return to the style of 2.

are you mixing up sam sho v ,v special retro ? i've always liked 4 anyway but do agree 3 is the most average of any of them.
No not getting them mixed up. However Sam Sho 3-4 and V - V special and very similar. 4 is like an update of 3 where they fixes all that was wrong with 3. Similarly V Special fixed the mess that was V. 4 had quite an active tournament scene even if the balance was way off.
Love Fatal Fury as well. I don't think FF is dated compared to SF2, it's more a continuation of the first street fighter but just made more modern and actually playable, it shares the same director as SF1.
And even though it's a dirty rotten blatant rip off of SF2, I'm awful fond of Fatal Fury 2 and the series only got better with subsequent releases and iterations with the Real Bout special games being amazing.
