Great list of machines there mate!

Would be great to see some good pictures of Bullseye and Along the Prom (haven't seen one of these in ages - last time was Southend 11 years ago). Maverick and The Guvnor are both worth a decent layout too.

I love it when a new member pops up who's a real enthusiast like me

I heard about your arcade a couple of years back and always hoped you'd find this place. That bucket of ROMs sounds very interesting aswell - you never know what delights might be in there...

Welcome to the forum

Ahh, along the prom. I rekon it's been about 12 years or so for me. Just like around the town.

Beautiful!

I don't think I've ever seen a Prize Eastenders before either

Cheers!

Would love to see a better pic of the bullseye machine, that one seems lower quality than the other excellent shots.

Wow, thanks for these, but........

........Can I suggest that you take pictures of Bullseye in different sections (all different sections), at angles (important) to avoid flashes and so, as many as possible close up with machine off. Say about 12 to 16 pictures should be sufficient, let Photoshop do the rest

Look forward to you uploading them

:devil:

Iv'e never seen the Prize Eastenders before either, I would love to give this baby a bash. Treasure Island, would that be in Blackpool? if its the same one then I was in there last summer.

I remember those prize machines - they were everywhere for a while... I ended up owning about 50 watches around that time. Most the machines of that era seemed to have conversions - and you could usually choose between aftershave, watches or thee jackpot in cash/ tokens....

and others coming, hopefully when i can get them going!

I have all the new machines too like elvis 500 and 35's and 25's, BUT people prefer the classics and WANT MORE of them!

Every machine listed above is in my arcade available to play, i dont play them as its one of my golden rules, i wish i could but i wont steal the customers money.

You can find me in VENTNOR ISLE OF WIGHT in the high street.The arcade is called TREASURE ISLAND. Im an AGC so really sorry for those who are not 18, but most of us who can appreciate the old stauf are well past 18!

i will help anyone, i enjoy it, if anyone needs any high spec photos thats fine. im getting a eprom burner hopefull next week or so. I can then issue programs.

As for the bucket of roms there are around 300, i have been given them from a friend who supplied machines.

There are some gems in there, wish i had the machine to go with it, but thats where you guys come in!!!

***Todd looks up how much it is for a fortnights holiday on the Isle of Wight***

[LEEHAM]

I'm happy to help with dumping your roms- let me know if interested:)

[Guitar]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There's someone on the mecca called bigtime2u (I think thats his name) who lives on the isle of wite.

PLEASE can we get a dump of everything. I'm pretty sure a rom dumper and laptop can be arranged.

We desperately need sound roms and pictures for Shane Ritchie and Mike Reid.

That ScorpII machine that looks like round the town but isn't. Thats unemulated and has been MIA for years.

And a bucket of 300 roms, ooh the possibilities.

Prize eastenders may not run due to the prize bit being unemulated, BUT I am planning on doing M1A after I have done MPU4. They use the same processor core so should be relatively easy. And I promise if we get those roms, I'll emulate it.

THANKYOU for coming this way Treasure Island. If I ever get the chance to visit I.O.W again I'll make damn sure your the first arcade I visit.

[fuzion]

I'd certainly throw in a tenner to this guy if we can get some of the 'most wanted' roms dumped ie Bullseye £6 token version.

Count me in for for a quid if he needs to post them (can get loads of roms, pictures on a couple of DVD's).

EDIT: Did Treasure Island not say he's ordered / thinking of getting a Eprom Reader on the first page?

:devil:

Hopefully some exceptionally good times ahead for fme.
