  • I had a wheelbarrow, the wheel fell off.
Wii golf is lame, it cant detect soft strokes properly.

I have created a thread in games and consoles about Neo turf masters, go to it and see the light :bowdown:

Where abouts have you been getting the games from, I always have problems finding them and surprised there isnt one download around with all the games?!

Usenet tbh, but I am sure there are torrents etc knocking about, though if you see the turf masters thread all you need to do is google the filename...

Nice candy cab!

I was looking at getting an sega astro city a few years back, but where to difficult to get hold of :-(

How much did it set you back?

See previous page.

If/when property prices fall I wouldnt mind a standalone rotated one, but getting cabs is even harder now the main chap doing imports has quit.

Where did you get the cab from? Ive been looking for a more modern cab for a while. Would obviously prefer a Naomi Sega one, but cant find any cheap enough

Arcadeotaku has taken over from Killercabs, its still finding its feet but theres a couple on there. I have seen them on ebay now and again too, the new net citys are nicest.

I have a dreamcast, but got a proper atomiswave board to install instead of it.
