Howdy!
Here is an all new and complete tour of all my 30 classic arcade games in my home arcade! I go through them one at a time (I go pretty fast since there are 30 of them) and give a brief overview of each one. These are full sized arcade games from the 70-90's, the real commercial coin-operated machines. The games in the collection include:
Arkanoid
Asteroids Deluxe (Cocktail)
Batman Part 2
Battlezone (Cabaret)
Black Widow
Centipede (Cabaret)
Cloak & Dagger
Crystal Castles
Donkey Kong (Red cabinet version)
Donkey Kong Jr.
Elevator Action
Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters
Jungle King (Cocktail)
Liberator (Cabaret & Upright)
Mikie
Moon Patrol
Ms. Pac-Man
Neo Geo MVS
Out Run (Cabaret)
Pong
Rally-X
Simpsons, The
Smash TV
Space Harrier (Sitdown version)
Stargate
Star Wars (Atari version)
Super Pac-Man
Tempest
Vs. Super Mario Bros.
Thanks for watching!

I have been going to Ocean City Maryland on family vacations for the past 30 or so years. I am 10 years younger than you, however, the Playland arcade is still up and running and going strong. It does have a few classic arcade machines but many games are newer or redemption. The sounds, the lights, energy and ambience on warm summer nights are still awesome even today!

Hello! This was a really neat video. If your channel hasn't crossed the radar of RetroRalph, I'm sure it will soon! It's really neat that you have Escape from the Planet of the Robot Zombies. I always loved that game and played it often! Your collection is really nice! I was really impressed with your Space Harrier cab too! My top 5 wish list of games to actually own in person would be: 1) Xybots 2) APB (with the sit down seat) 3) STUN Runner (but wow is that thing huge) 4) Spy Hunter (Stand-up) 5) Rasten

Stellar overview of your collection and always enjoy the historic info and backstories! I too being born in 71 used to enjoy family summer vacations in the late 70s and early 80s in Ocean City and Atlantic City casino arcades. Not sure and recall completely if I ever visited that particular one you went to though. I remember the indoor casino ones mainly but forgot the names.

Howdy Cassandra, I hope your doing well, I watched this video probably 10 times now lol you have so many of my favorite Arcade games, that I played as a kid, as they debuted, and still play, and own some of them today, do you have any children, and if so, have they shown interest in becoming electrical engineers too, like your Dad, and do they have the same love for the classic Arcade games like yourself ?? I've been subscribed to your channel for the past 2,3 years now, and I gotta say, I really appreciate your knowledge of the games you own and restore, but the history of these games, and So much more, I really enjoy watching your videos, and learning such in depth history of these games, and the companies who built them, Very Cool indeed, Stay safe, Stay Calm and game on my Friend, Peace

Awesome collection. I wish I had space to go that big. I guess I technically do, but I love my console games as well, so I had to keep it to 5 cabinets (I may be able to fit one more if I get creative). I have that same Centipede cabaret, which I play a lot. I also have a Neo Geo MVS, a Nintendo Popeye, a Time Soldiers that was set up as the original game in a Dynamo cabinet, which is kind of weird, and a converted 4-player Sunset Riders that has been at least two other games, but I can't tell which. It was at least a Crime Fighters and something from Taito, but they did enough 4 player games that I'll never know for sure most likely. I like having an LS30 rotary stick cabinet. I sometimes swap in my pcbs for Guerrilla War, Gondomania, and Heavy Barrel, or the odd vertical JAMMA board like Devastators. The Sunset Riders I swap in several boards as well. I have... Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, GI Joe, and Desert Assault that all have the same 15 pin connector for simple switching. I have other 4 player PCBs, but they're a pain to swap because of different pinout on the 3P and 4P harnesses (WWF Wrestlefest, US Championship V'ball, Ninja Baseball Bat Man). I have a bunch of other JAMMA boards I swap in from time to time in the MVS cabinet with a converter. A few that aren't all that great that I got for cheap, and several that I just love from my younger days like Rastan, Tecmo Knight, Black Tiger, etc. I think I have about 50 pcbs and a bunch of MVS carts (as well as one of those 161 in 1 banana yellow carts). I play Neo Geo more on AES, since I own more games on it, but that multi-cart gives me access to a few games like Money Puzzle Exchanger I may not have tried otherwise and loved!

I spot Jungle King at 0:20! This early incarnation didn't last as Taito was sued by the estate of Edgar R. Burroughs, who owned the rights to all things Tarzan. As a result, Taito changed the name to Jungle Hunt, and replaced the Tarzan-like character with a game hunter.

I didn't start getting arcade machines until 2018, when arcade1up hit the scene. My first one was the Street Fighter 2, but because it was a wave one cabinet it crapped out within a couple of months. Then I got a Final Fight cabinet, luckily that one didn't crap out like the first wave cabinet so that was a plus. Then it was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Ms. Pac-Man, The Simpsons, Capcom Legacy Street Fighter 2, and the Class of 81. I sold 3 of my cabinets to make enough money for the Class of 81. I currently own Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Simpsons, Capcom Legacy, and Class of 81. My all time favorites are The Simpsons, Capcom Legacy, and Class of 81

What you are describing sounds like a Pandora's Box which you can buy for under $50 on ebay. They usually come preloaded with 1500+ games and are usually plug and play if you already have a JAMMA setup. If it is CHAMMA then it will require CHAMMA to JAMMA adapter but those are usually less than $20.
