Long story short, a fan of my YT channel, and now a friend, stopped by to work on the neighbors scissor lift, which i was borrowing. He works for a forklift service center. He just happened to stumble on the shop because he was there for business.....well hello there . Anyway, we got to bullshitting about gaming and such i told him i might make some arcade cabinets with my new CNC. Turns out he is a huge arcade game enthusiast. I told him my dream was to have my own properly working, coin operated Donkey Kong or Galaga machine. He told me he would look into it. Less than 24 hours later he hits me with pictures of a PRISTINE Donkey Kong machine his friend is selling. All original except i think the side stickers were redone and he had the mainboard re-capped. It looks amazing! Inside and out.

I am jealous!!

I mean it's not like i can't play this game on my PC or my xbox or some other console. But a real stand up machine is just something special about it. At least for us 40+ year olds

it might SEEM like a waste of money but for the price i got this for it is totally MONEY IN THE BANK. It will never not be worth what i paid for it and will most likely always be worth 2-3 times what i paid. I really got a deal i couldn't refuse and it was IN TOWN so i didn't have to ship it
