Right here!

Actually there's a few of us. There were some other guys talking in the SVC locations thread in the News and Rumors section.

Flintown represent here though.

I grew up in FlintTown. My brother and I use to play up at AFE all the time when I was in high school.

I moved to San Diego about 3 years ago. I still have lions season tickets and will be in d-town for the first regular season game.

No I haven't. And for the other guy, sorry about your fandom with the Lions.

Winning Season does not equal Lions.

I use to drive by wixom on my way to work in Farmington Hills every day. There is a big Ford plant there if I remember correctly.

Lions won't win much this year but they will be good in a few years.....GO LIONS.

Apparently there is a SvC cab at Pinball Petes in downtown Ann Arbor!

I used to live in Michigan and will be up there for 2 weeks in December. My wife's family and my best friend still live up there :)

So, in a roundabout kind of way, I am sort of a Michigan member wink

BTW, I lived in Detroit, Dearborn Heights, and Westland...

I live in Michigan but it's in the Grand Rapids area. About 3 hours away from Ann Arbor. Unfortunately, I know of no good arcades in this area. The only arcade I go to is Chuck E Cheese where I take my kiddies. There might be arcades about but none that I know of.

While technically I'm a member of this forum, I mostly lurk these days. I'm in Novi, right next to Wixom.

>>Vans skate park- Novi

Really? I would never have thought to look in there. Is it any good? I've always been tempted to poke my head into the Chuck E Cheese on the other side of the mall, but I doubt they have anything good either.

I went there last week and got spanked by Zero. I think the area is kinda shady. I'm gonna wait for a better place to get the game. I'm going to practice on the AES, then walk into an arcade and clean them out!

Yep. One of my favorite pictures, too bad the card sucks. :)

Ebay. I can't think of any import stores in this area. Maybe in Ann Arbor.

Speaking of Ann Arbor don't forget about Pinball Petes. I think they have a four slot MVS with Bust A Move and at least one Metal Slug (I was too into the Para Para Paradise machine to notice last time).

I'm also from Michigan. I live close to Wizzards.
The area isn't safe at night, however.
