Updates to the site. Slow, sorry.

Recieved a very large box containing my precious Rygar #3. This board is very nice looking, so hopefully it will work perfectly and last forever. And I shall sherish it as long as we’re together. I got a little surprise in the box as well, the auction was for the game itself, a manual and …

Added some quick navigation links for my System Motherboards page. Go check it out!

I put on a sunsceen onto the bezel glass in my MAME cabinet. Took the oppurtunity of grabbing some photos of the insides, as I almost never take the glass of (the monitor doesn’t rotate, because it’s too big to be in vertical position). Go to the cabinets page and click the little picture of …

Took a better photo of my Metal Slug X cartridge for my Neo-Geo MVS. Because of this, now there’s also a high-resolution image available for it. I have a package at the post office. Perhaps it’s another game? I sure hope it is. And it was my Japan-package containing a Seibu SPI Motherboard (I’m gonna …

Received a much awaited Twin Cobra PCB in the mail. I’m gonna hook it up and play it as much as possible this weekend.

Added a stats/counter to my site. It’s fun to check out the activity. After all, without any activity, what’s the significance of having a website? Also added a couple of links to Swedish arcade collectors in the misc section.

Reworked the games-page with links to every single game to speed up the browsing. I’m considering doing the same for the system motherboards-page later on, but since I only have 5 games there it’s not worth the effort right now. Added some more links in the misc-page. Changed the appearance of weblinks. They are no …

Changed the layout so that the whole webpage fits your browser if you’re browsing in 1024×768 or using a widescreen monitor in 1280 x 800 and such resolutions. Added some more pcb photos for games that I also have artworks or marquees for. Added some more links in the ‘misc’ section. Uploaded this webpage to …

Did some cosmetic fixes to how text is displayed, so now it should look as good in IE as it does in Mozilla.

Started work on these pages, i.e. designed them and did some basic html. Then got carried away and put up all my games with lots of nice info. Because, who really want’s to browse empty friggin’ pages, right?
Hi folks,
I'm a bit too old (born 1974), father of two girls and one boy and have been an avid arcade game fan since I first got to play Knuckle Joe (the game's really crap, what was Taito thinking?) but it got me hooked. Me and a couple of my friends used to ride our bikes around town just to check out the latest games. And we we're really good at playing them. Luckily for me, the game operators responsible for the machines around my home town really had a great feel for what games would be popular.
Look at my collection to see some of the titles that I now as an adult had do have. I was too young to play at the local video rental (they had two NSM cabinets and later switched one of them to a JK Cabinet) and the best operator in town, Video Games was their name.
I stood there watching the older kids play. There was the 15 year age-limit and I was only about 13 at the time. I also played a lot on Aleph cabinets. The operator that favoured those is called Adon-Bolagen.
