: Hey
Go to your local arcade. Look for a sticker on the cabinets that has the "owned by" or "serviced by" information. I'm guessing that there's at least 3 companies that provide video games to locations in Mississauga alone.
Call or visit them. They probably have a warehouse of old cabs that they can't get rid of, since so many arcades have gone out of business in the last 10 years.
That's what I did, and I got a respectable Tetris cab for $200cdn, with a good monitor, with a whack of old buttons and joysticks thrown in, delivered to my doorstep.
: I have looked since Febuary for am arcade cab(empty) in Mississauga/Toronto and i cant find shit. If i dont find one before the end of this month im gonna have to give up. It pisses me off because the idea of building a Mame cab rules. oh well. I will seriously appreciat eany help i can get. Thanks.
