Hello everyone.

My name is Timbo.

Thank you for creating a fantastic website. It's a shame the arcades are not like they were in the 80's and 90's when you could spend so many happy hours there.

Hi All,

I've recently re-discovered fruit machines and Emulation in general after a long while away, I am currently working on a MFME cabinet. Hopefully with Coinmech and Hopper(s) so it will take and payout real cash.

I have obtained a Star Wars a New Hope Full size real machine which I was hoping to resurrect, but I think that might be a step too far, the cabinet is water damaged (the glass is....... interesting) and the seller sold the game card to someone, and essentially gave me the remnants.

It would appear I would need parts that I can't get (specific security chip and the Flash Software for the Game Cart) so I think it may just get stripped for parts.

I have been collecting bits for the cabinet for a while and think I have everything I need now.

Thanks for having me

Pete

Welcome aboard WibbleWobble, hope you eventually get your cab sorted.  There are many knowledgeable people here and on the other FME forums so don't be afraid to ask for help if and when you need it.

 Thanks for the welcome DAD, also thanks to you and all the other talented layout artists   who make all the fabulous layouts of the machines I fondly remember. Also Wizard for coding MFME.  I hopefully will find something I can do to add to the scene rather than just leeching.
