    Off the top of your head? OFF THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD???? There could be more giant arcades at your place that could have slipped your mind?

    Can I borrow some arcade machines?

    I used to have many more cabinets and a lot more boards. I'm not sure which ones I got rid of when I thinned things down (after building a Mame cabinet).

    I'm actually considering either giving away or selling for very little the Daytona set since it takes up way too much room.

    For me I think this happened around the 20-or-so machine mark. By the time I owned 20 machines, I must've bought and sold 50. More than once I would go out to my backyard shed to play a game only to remember that, oh yeah, I sold that one.

    It would be different if I bought one every time I sold one, but it rarely works out that way. Sometimes I mean to buy one but end up with three, or I trade two-for-one, or one dies and I forget about it. For a while whenever people asked me how many machines I owned, I was answering "20ish", which blew their minds. Then it was 25ish, then 30ish. Now it's back to around 20ish.

    I think.
