Make sure the coin box on that thing is secure, she can then pay a dollar per game if she wants to use it!
Is playing it more fun than being walked like a dog beside the Torrens for hours?

Aaaagh! What a way to drive a dart player insane, it's skew-whiff, the 20 is supposed to be at the top.

You forgot the bikini posters.


What about one of those big tacky Chiko Roll posters?
You can introduce Jane to the world of deep fried Aussie food in all it's denutritionalised beauty. Chiko Roll, fillet of unidentified fish, minimum chips and a potato cake (potato scallop in your neck of the woods). While you're waiting for your fish and greasies impress her with your prowess on the pinball machine or the game console just like the one you've got at home.

I need to get me one of those.

I bought it from a slightly dodgy website that no longer exists. You can probably find a place that sells similar units with a little Googling.

What's the fun in buying? The fun is in building the arcade cabinet yourself.

I had one, then I took it to a large lot of land owned by a friend of the family and shot it full of holes in .38 Special. It didn't work for darts well anymore after that.

Heck! I'd just do it for myself :lol:


I can anytime I'm home and never do. I go downstairs to use the treadmill & my yoga ball, though.

There's also a TV on the wall and some surround sound speakers wired in I never use/that seldom gets used. And there's quite the well stocked bar. And a bunch of beer/alcohol signs and things, some decent native art, a few framed hockey jerseys and stuff.

Blew large chunks out of the back on the exit. The whole thing practically fell apart by the time we were finished having fun. It hung without use for years, it was definitely worth it.

It's got Donkey Kong. It's approximately 2,000 games in one.

After eating every fried dish in China Jane will be unimpressed by our paltry efforts.

Sounds like our upstairs living room that hardly ever gets used for anything. I had a yoga ball too but I had to sacrifice it to repair the chaise longue.

You need a friend to play some of those games.
Do you have a friend? :mrgreen:
