I would, but that might tempt me to sell them, which I could never bring myself to do.

Most 5 screw variations arnt worth anything more than the 3 screw. Only the extremely rare 5 screw games have more value like 5 Screw Mega Man or 5 Screw Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!. Some variant collectors will pay a few bucks more for 5 screw but not much more than the typical 3 screw.

Awesome set up, by the way. Love it.

Thank you sir.

I have the entire third floor, which will be my arcade. I'll post more pics when I get the chance.

Amazing call Hobes. How you even find my posts in this jungle of threads still surprises me.

I've got few rooms for my fellow racketeers, but I've got a three day gtfooh rule.

If any one is interested, I've got the third floor dimensions and pictures. Any advice on how to build my arcade is welcome.

Well, if you are talking about having actual arcade games up there, my only advice would be to make sure they are games you want to keep for awhile before moving them up to the third floor.

No joke. I'm moving in to my my new place from the third floor down. By the time we all get really tired of moving boxes and furniture we'll only have to move things to the first floor. Should be a relief.
some pics of the third floor

Suggestions welcome.

Oh and we listened to Appetite to Destruction while eating our chicken and drinking champagne (I keep it classy). After dinner my wife cuddled up with the pup in the living room and they took a nap. Unfortunately I woke them both up
