Luna City Arcade - Blu-ray Forum

Maybe a few of you have seen some of my posts where I talk of my hobby of collecting and repairing arcade games from the early 80's. Well, while looking around the net for parts today, I was directed to this site. And my collection(small) was humbled. I am not ashamed to admit that I am jealous.

Take a look.

That is awesome. The place looks absolutely authentic with that carpeting.

With my buying and trading I have seen some nice home arcades. But that has to be the best I have seen. When I finally get around to finishing my garage, I'm thinking of using some black-light carpet like that.

They have a Tron arcade machine. That alone makes them awesome. I've never seen one of those in person.

That is so cool. All it needs is someone walking around with one of those belts that has all the quarters on them.

Are you talking about the Discs Of Tron machine? I almost got one at auction a few months back, but got outbid. They don't come up too often, especially in one piece.

That dates you, for sure! I've seen them. I've played them. And for a quarter a game.

Yes sir, I am. I've always wanted to play it but haven't had a chance.

Bit of trivia. It was originally supposed to be a mini game in the original Tron game but it was cut out and improved then released as a stand alone. I know I know, who cares. It's a sickness.

That's an interesting little tidbit.
