    What sort of storage depot is that you're owning/renting there? ^^ Incredible...

    From what date is that Jeutel arcade? Never seen such a thing, looks like mid-70's to me.

    storage place he bought for his business (sometimes he even sells videogames goodies & sticks). his pinballs/arcade frenzy eats around 40% of the place :lol: .

    i figure it's perhaps 1979. first time i played on jeutel was in october 1980... that was so "new" at this time ^^. their pinout was common in france, first generic arcades i saw. loved much their psychedelic panels & sides & decos. some are stunning funny. space, amazons, rambo2, 3d relief, ...

    about 5 tons i guess... can't edit the title :lol:

    i'm nearly my end wishlist...

    scudrace not outrun2... but with $$$ anything can be converted. some do it (some hardware is needed : lindbergh mobo, forcefeedback compatible because depending the game there are many issues), . well it's there physically (800kms from where i must work), but it will need restoration. one mobo was corrupted. the other froze. i can pardon it, got it for 100€ :pray:

    luck of auctions and some roadtrips ! (rare in france :rolleyes:, but locally one of the survivors of arcade business collapsed, even with that.. we needed to pay certain amounts... there were so many sharks from the "business arcade" there to get their games .. especially pinballs and good driving twins :crying: )

    there are far less arcades, pinballs in france to get (and largely enough foes who rush and no morale to pick you things to resell them ! ..) (than usa... there auctions and "craiglist" carry so much things !!)

    and luck of space ! my good friend owns this hangar for business purpose.

    we dont have big funds, (few years ago i was unemployed most of the time :shrug:) we know there will be duty, about 70% of our machines need fix.

    dont forget there are many folks in europe who have much more than us and have time to restore or have the "place" to make the gameroom !! vossens in germany, isou in swiss, jam in france, darth nuno in belgium

    the day i can be in some wasteland with my house and ambiance i seek, there i will be happy i hope. still have to fight for ! :gravedigging:

    This reminds me of my experience with the vending machine at my company. Previously we had these machines that would sometimes take your money and not deliver the goods. When that happened, you had to let your admin know and she would give you money back.

    A new company was brought in and they had these fancy vending machines. They can detect if an item failed to drop and would cycle again to ensure that you got something.
    Apparently if you buy Doritos, the package is pretty puffy. It has a tendency to get stuck between the glass and the tray level. So the machine would spit out a second one 10 seconds or so later. That package would get stuck as well. On top of that, it would give you your money back. A simple rap on the glass would get both packages to fall.

    hi, i'm french so i size as meters, centimeters. the real problem is this warehouse is far from where i normally live.. but if you want size of naomi sitdown or windy2 i can measure them in Paris.

    the better would be to see flyers informations on www.arcadeflyers.com ;) there is much often the specs in the datasheet. or download some candycab manuals. there are many here too :thumbsup: :
