Thanks, yeah...I got bit by the pinball bug and needed to get some funds and room. Sold it this morning. Was sad to see it go.

I live in California...our cars can be outside all year long. But you're only seeing 1/3rd of my garage. I can still pull a car in if we needed to and occasionally do when unloading something big or lots of groceries.

The majority of the games are on two 20 amp circuits. I have outlets every 4 feet and they alternate between each circuit.

You have 5 arcade games. An arcade is a place that houses arcade games. Or did you mean that you have five separate venues featuring arcade games?

See, an arcade is a type of roman architecture. It's room made up of a series or arched hallways. Often these were used to house shops and stalls in antiquity.

In our time, an arcade game was a midway type game that was coin-operated, and could fit into... You guessed it; shops and stalls... A "Video Arcade". Hence they are "Arcade games".

Those pics with the lights off and the cabs running is awesome! Is that a Neo 25? I've never seen that topper before- just the one with the 4 slots for the mini marquees. You've got a setup that I dream about.
