Room, what's that? I have a Dig Dug cabaret cabinet that has a 60in1 board in it in living room, an old Data East convertible cabinet (horizontal/vertical monitor) with a 2600 or so game board in it in the shed/shop, and in storage unit an original working Crystal Castles cabinet, a Subroc original cabinet that plays but has a couple cosmetic issues, and another cabinet with a Boom'r Rang'r board set in it. Have a complete wire harness and spare board for CC, some misc components, a spare Boom'r Rang'r board with some issue, and more parts like buttons and joysticks. Have a spare 19" arcade monitor and I think two Zenith TVs with the right CRT to be donors for arcade monitors. It's a sin to place an LCD screen in a real arcade cabinet! I believe they are now making CRT for such things in Korea maybe?
Have some of the old octagonal rotary 8-way joysticks like for Heavy Barrel, Ikari Warriors, etc. where the boards broke at the connectors. I was thinking I might be able to direct solder some wires at the edge of the plastic case to get them working but haven't tried yet. My intent was to make two cabinets MAME machines, one each for horizontal and vertical games, but that stalled out...a while...ago. Still have a couple small form factor Dell desktops that run Win2k I was going to use for that. Aaaaaaaand yes two Atari 2600 and two Colecovision systems with a good number of games. Even the adapter for Colecovision to play the Atari games in.
