Back in the late 80's, possibly the early 90's, the museum had an exhibit of Arcade games. Each game represented was unique in some fashion. Example: Robotron was there because it was the first arcad…

Share the best arcade game find story you've had in New York

Stories of warehouse finds, bulk deals, or just rare games that you found, got on Craigslist and how much you got them for.

Sadness is missing a $50 Robotron upright on Craigslist/Albany a few months ago.
I don't suppose anyone here scored it by chance? If you did, then 2 men are in conflict and must go to THUNDERDOME!!! ;-)
I live in Saratoga Springs. Where is everyone else at?

Comment by Jeff Rothe on April 9, 2009 at 11:48am: There. I msg'd most of the members here that are in NY. There is something like 25! Which is pretty good actually, you guys could have a decent sized group, just behind the NE guys :)

Comment by Awe+Mike! on April 9, 2009 at 12:06am: Baaadgod, send me any email with a picture, description, price and location. I would love to touch base. Same goes for anyone else that has an offer or a lead to some great classics for sale. (Awesummike@gmail.com) Also, thank you Jeff I am glad to have found a great coinop community. I have searched many sites and it has been hard to find people selling classics. Ebay had turned up most of my leads but after what seemed like a million google searches I found this site when searching for game room decor. I notice a lot of people selling games don't have good websites that are crawled google. I have been able to find a good source on this site so far and the community here seems quite active in comparison to others. It would appreciate if someone could make a post(or direct me to a post) on local game and part vendors for all styles of game rooms.

Comment by Nick *streetzking* on April 8, 2009 at 7:18pm: Thanks for the help Jeff. Glad to see this finally getting some members

Comment by Jeff Rothe on April 8, 2009 at 1:53pm: Good to see some activity in a state that surely has a ton of collectors.

For anyone looking to expand, remember you can do an advanced member search and find other members in the NY area to invite. I've invited members to this group as they've joined, but other member invites are always good.

Comment by Baaadgod on April 8, 2009 at 11:37am: i have one game i want to get rid of, All American Football

Comment by Awe+Mike! on April 8, 2009 at 10:28am: Well, I am looking to start-up a collection of classics for a venue I would like to run in the future. Any Classic video games from 10 yard fight to zoo keeper that I could acquire in stable working condition for $1200 or less would be awesome! Anyone that could sell a handful of games under 500$ each I must meet!
