The greatest find I think I'll ever get.

I just bought a Playchoice Arcade Machine for $125 and I'm going to pick it up this weekend. It was on my local classifieds, and we are going to pick it up very soon (most likely this weekend). I will post some pictures when it's in our home. There are some really good games in it, Mario 3, Tecmo Bowl, Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2, Super C, and....Fester's Quest? Anyways though this may not be a huge deal, but to me it is, I've always wanted my own Arcade game since I was really little. Now I have 10 of them!!!

    That's a fantastic price. You could sell off some of the titles that don't "wow" you, and easily get a free cab out of it. Congrats.



    Be warned though: once you buy one, you'll want more. It always works out that way.

    I have to say, that's the TRUTH right there, lol. They're like potato chips, can't just have one, lol.

    I have NO room for any more cabs, but if I found  PC10 for $125, I'd be all over it. Nice deal man!

    Single or Double monitor?

    Hahahaha... this is so true.  I bought a Playchoice in July 2008 to "round out" my NES collection.  Now I have no NES collection (sold it all off and have a PowerPak), but currently have 10 working cabs in my gameroom and have had 3 others which were sold/traded.  I'm 100% out of room outside of maybe a countertop game (PC-10, Megatouch, etc) but if I had the room I could easily throw another 10 cabs in my line-up.

    Here's my original PC-10 pickup thread.   I can't believe this was only about a year and a half ago, it feels like much longer... http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=10&threadid=10238

    Oh... and congrats on your upcoming score.  I say GO GET IT NOW BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE OFFERS THE GUY $150 FOR IT!!! image  And post pics once it's yours.
