I think that these are great. This stuff is history and should not be forgotten. I always loved coin-op games. They are fascinating. After all, I grew up playing them. Fun!

I’ll be there. 🙂

It’s a great Arcade Expo. Not just pinball, lots of coin-ops too. 

I've heard of this but I've never attended it.  Looks like a cool retro convention!

Those are very cool and I still miss Radio Shack. 😢
I'm partial to the SONY MDR-7506. I've had an MDR series headphone since my high school days.

I like the den neat and tidy, but the headphones were always in my way, so I printed up a holder for them today.  Now I don't have to pick them up and move them all the time.  Sometimes it's the "little things"...

Same!

Got this one recently!  A really good version and an improvement over what was originally released.

One more pic of the contents. I really like their “premium” box and contents.

Here’s my recent pick up from Opcode. I’m waiting on Time Pilot to ship and I joined Season 2 of their Super Game Club, so I can receive Amidar and DKJr Arcade.

Added three more CIB Epyx games. I mostly played Summer Games with my friend on his C64. The other two I played on my Atari 800.
 

Currently listening to Tears for Fears' Rule the World: Greatest Hits on vinyl.

I did a quick video tour of the Stranger Things store in Las Vegas this week.  It is unlisted on youtube, and I put it on my blog site:

My CIB arrived yesterday and I played a few rounds of each game. I’m very happy with this purchase.
