ziggy2031 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Been chainsmoking bushfire smoke for a week now. A bit of rain last night and clean air finally. ahhhhh Longtime arcade player from the days of Space Invaders, Galaxian, Asteroids, Donkey Kong, Moon Cresta, Pacman, Qbert. Also they days of rubbing your school shoes on the carpet to generate static electricity then zapping the coin slot with your house key to get 99 credits. Stringing pinball machines and the era of the 2 cent trick while it lasted. lol. Good times I have a sweet little homemade 3/4 size rpi3 arcade machine with all the faves. Now building a mini (27")virtual pinball so need a forum :) Looks like steep learning curve ahead :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
