Metrocross is DONE!!!! Yep, its in the Arcade now. Lots of pictures on the Conversion page.

Many Thanks to Ron Corcoran for the 11 new 2600 carts! Those have been added to the 2600 page.

Updated the Arcade pictures. I had to move some games around and I have left some room for a couple more games. There are currently 10 games in the room and I think I can squeeze 2 more in comfortably. Probably going to be Joust and Donkey Kong Jr.

I plan on making a Nintendo Row to go with the Williams Row :-) Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong JR., Popeye, and maybe Punch Out.

Games close to being done are:

  • Popeye
  • Joust
  • Robotron #2
  • I've started work on the Mr. DO! Cocktail. Pictures will be coming later.

    I recieved my two 2600's, 7800 and 5200. The 5200 and 7800 need power supplies which are specific to those consoles. I may wind up hacking one in so I can juse use a standard power supply. If you have an extra PS for either console and wouldn't mind parting with it, please drop me an @EMAIL@.

    So my Galaga died today...
     
    I'm not sure if it's coincidence or related, but I was turning the power off on my Defender by the power switch under the control panel at the exact time it failed. The switch was a bit tough to toggle so it was like in the half way position when it happened. Both games are on the same circuit.

    Restoration/Preservation has begun on my Kickman.
     
    It's not a full restoration, but more of a preservation of what is there.  I like trying to keep things as original as possible.  With that in mind, I can take a few chances on this one as the damage is already done.  I'm mainly trying to prevent even more damage when I can.  Worse comes to worse, I'll do a full restore on it down the road.
