I love seeing guided tours of people's home set ups like this, I don't have the space for anything like this myself, but it's really nice to see which games people choose or happen upon and what they mean to them. Thank you for sharing. ❤
Loved the tour! Random favorites: the plush Snowbee on the Anti-Aircraft, Q*bert cocktail with the tiny 13", Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters, Mikie (w/ Locomotion!), Pac n Pal, Elevator Action (w/ Sea Fighter Poseidon, a really fun game!), and one of my all time favorites Smash-TV :)
How in all of the ‘70’s & 80’ Arcade in the mall by the movies, our childhood was great” were you able to move your collection anywhere!!!!! Awesome collection Arcade Gal! You must have the best parties! And thank you for your choice in your professional to help those who often who can’t help themselves and are many times without a voice.
Holy God lady, case manager / social work is insane. I'm a physical therapist at the hospital and I see your pain. I also stabilize myself with comforting things like video games from my favorite era and videos like yours! Thank you for your content, and thank you for the service that you provide others every single god damn day. I'd love to kick it with you in a game room like that for sure.
What an awesome collection! I just gutted a pacman woodgrain arcade 1up to a 60 in 1 jamma system, I also have a recroom masters mame machine and a few arcade 1ups like star wars and golden tee deluxe. Arcade games are hard to find and expensive where i live unfortunately.
Your video popped up on New Year’s Day for a reason. As a reminder, don’t let up on your dreams. My dream of having my own personal arcade/man cave in my forever home with my family. 2025 WILL BE A Great year! Win The Day! Thank you for the content!
Always LOVED the cabinets for Dragon's Lair & Alien Syndrome. Both would look great in your arcade collection, especially the latter! ❤ Dragon's Lair, I had to get the Replicade for my office desk shelf. It's very cool.
New subscriber and thank you for sharing your home and game cabinets with me! I also in the home arcade community (Arcade1Up's, MVSX, AtGames, Irrcade and etc) i have over 50 cabs and pinball tables... Maybe one day i can display my room to world like you but i have to say that you have awesome collectionof games that go back to my childhood....
Gran Trak 10 is insanley cool... Cloak & Dagger (speachless) Q*bert cocktail is a gem. Love Crystal Castles... (I have the humble ALU multicade version) Your acrade is an incredible lense back in time....
As someone who works for Parkland Hospital as a medical language interpreter & therefore w/social workers at both the hospital & clinics, I can see how hard, both physically & emotionally draining the job can be. I'm a big arcade machine fan, & while I have a bunch of games, I always wanted an arcade cabinet where I can play all my ROMs with. Not yet sure whether or not to go with a cocktail, cabaret or full size arcade cabinet. That'll of course will have to wait till I move from my apartment to a house of my own. Thanks for sharing your collection! ❤ Now I feel like dropping by.
A regular full size cabinet will probably work best for what you're wanting to do. Nothing crazy big like a Darius or big konami cab. Atari dig dug style is common and cheap. Or a namco pac man style. A dynamo cab is better for fighting games if u need a lotta buttons. Cabarets and cocktails don't offer a lot of space inside them. If you're planning on putting a PC inside the cab. You could use a jamma harness and a Jpac to connect to the pc. They work well.
Moon Patrol is one of my absolute favourites, The first machine I bought was a Low Boy with Mr. Do! another of my favourites. I bought that when I was 21. The was 28 years ago. I still have the PCB ;) at that time I bought a Street Fighter 2 PCB for $15, still have that and a Bad Dudes PCB as well. Cheers from Melbourne Australia and happy to become a New Subscriber.
love ur channel and collection! Just subbed, so jelly of so many pieces, I am a devout pinball collector and fixer, but adore all things arcade, I DO own an original Neo Geo candy cab 29" and a standup asteroids deluxe I converted for a multicade which is SO cool with the blacklight background (I think igs on my channel if u look). SO glad u are open to a pimball, and happy to help if u wanna message me, I'm in NC. I own Black Hole, Firepower, Godzilla, Pulp Fiction, Strikes n Spares, Meteor, Flight 2000, grand slam, 2001, and Bank a Ball, may start a pinball channel/podcast but talk arcade culture in general. Please keep posting content!
Just picked up a spy hunter cockpit project in great shape for $1200. Definitely a holy grail for me that I’ve been looking for years to get one. Cant wait to work on it
Last night while my son was doing dishes, I shouted to him, "Hey, Arcade Gal has a new video", and he was like who is that? I responded, "someone who doesn't make nearly enough videos". LOL Happy Holidays to you and yours Arcade Gal, and your video was great as always, as it takes me back to a much simpler time of life. When figuring out what machine to put a token in was the depth of my issues at the time.
Very kool set up! I’m actually in my bsmt Monsta’ Kore! Arkade setting up 2 pinball machines & storing all my treasures under neath so we can FINALLY come down & play. Monsta’ 2k25 to all! 💪🏻🕹️🎮🤙🏻
This is really good. I am an avid retro gamer/collector myself. I am planning on doing a basement arcade as well and am curious as to the utility cost of running your arcade? I know costs will very depending on what you have and how long you keep them on and price per kilowatt. I have a large collection of the replicade desktop games from new wave, pretty nice. Thank you for sharing and I have subbed to see more.
This is a fantastic mini arcade that you've built for yourselves. It looks and undoubtedly feels (I imagine) just like a full size arcade. It has that womb-like quality that draws you in, surrounds you with warmth, comfort and love, and doesn't assault the eyes with such nonsense as natural lighting. It's soft and dark - just how it should be. Unfortunately, due to a lack of space, I only have two games, an Asteroids Cocktail which is in virtually mint condition, there's not even any screen burn, and a Mr And Mrs Pac-Man pinball, which has never had a run of more than seven consecutive days without something going wrong, but it keeps me on my toes. Could I ask, do you know of anywhere I can purchase a volcano switch? My 2 Player button works but it doesn't flash. I am in England but will happily pay the price and shipping. I cannot find one for sale at all. Finally, thanks for the tour, I confess to being extremely envious, but also very happy to see there are people out there who continue to love and cherish these wonderful old games.
Nice collection! So jealous of basement homes (not a lot of basements here in CA). Love the Mario question block tissue box, btw. Where did you find it?
Hey Cassandra. I'm getting ready to move in 2 months. I have 7 machines including a Simpsons and a gauntlet dark legacy (big heavy machines) . My question: Do you take the monitors out of the cabs before moving to the new house? (I will be having a moving company doing it). I'm trying to decide what the best or safest way to move the machine without breakage.
Monitors are always safer inside the machines. I did move a few into the basement without the monitors just due to that I did it myself and I was too weak to lift em assembled.
Just wanted to say that your comments are turned off for the newest video of your liberator you sold. Also, I do have a question of how much did you sell the liberator if you don’t mind me asking? I ask because I own an all original liberator in pretty much mint condition. Not planning on selling it but there isn’t many liberators sold to know an exact value

This tour was an unexpected holiday treat. Thank you!
Outstanding collection. It's like you're a docent of your own video game museum. Everything's so tasteful.

Great nostalgic Arcades, thank you for that video to be able to see back into the 80s.
Wow Trak 10. As a kid I’d spend an hour after school playing that. There was a similar two person game like it.
Love your arcade collection, Arcade Gal, You Rock keep does videos coming 👍🏼
Loved this tour video. Would love to see more of your videos. Your wiring video helped me a lot as I’m newer to arcade but into it deep.
Great video, love the tour! Amazing arcade collection!
That Qix cab is so cool!
Great setup you have.
Cheers!
Thanks!
Beautiful games room! I love these little cabarets ❤
Thanks for the tour... very cool! 👾
Nice little holiday treat at the end with the c64 Christmas demo! One of my all-time favs! :). You’ve got some classic cabs - very cool!
Your arcade is awesome!! I absolutely love it!! You have some really cool arcades.
Thank you! 👾
Nice arcade setup. I loved zookeeper when I was a kid in the 80s.
Loved Anti Aircraft...I never saw one before!!

Thanks for the tour of your awesome arcade! You have done an amazing job saving these games.
Dug the tour. Dig the collection! Thanks for inviting us in.
Nicely Done! Now this is an Arcade has known and Rare machines.. Well Done. Most Arcade Tours I see now. Have the same boring games.
I was wondering if you had Qix and it was one of the first shown. Used to like that game.
Amazing collection and home for them
Gran Trak 10 is insanley cool...
Cloak & Dagger (speachless)

Incredible tour and awesome knowledge! Thank you!
Very cool. The way you describe doing videos like this is how I was doing it but no one watched 😂. Awesome stuff
Awesome collection & video

Nice setup. I do miss your videos.
Sega Master System was my first gaming system. Phantasy Star IMO is the best 8-bit game ever made...
Agreed
It’s a good thing I don’t know where you live…because I’d never leave your basement lol
Good seeing you back on here! Thanks for the walkthrough! Do you have a recommendation for a good dolly to move all those games into your basement?
I use the kind with the “kick back” extra wheels

Nice collection, what type of led lights are on the ceiling??
They are made by Govee!
amazing lineup
damn that 80s/90s intro vibe made me a sub
sweet turbo
New drop, let's GOOOOOOOO!
Nice collection! So jealous of basement homes (not a lot of basements here in CA). Love the Mario question block tissue box, btw. Where did you find it?
Etsy!
I'm in love!!! Shhhhhhh. . .. :o)

Nice tour. Can you tell me where u got the neon lights on the wall near the ceiling?
Amazing!
I need a barn, a big barn.
Nice 🤘
Gorgeous setup! Does it affect your electric bill much?
Not so much, it’s rare they are all on at once
Love the name of your channel! Why are there thick black lines running through most of your screens?
It’s the camera 👾 sync of the monitor vs the camera shutter speed
Q-bert Cocktail graphic issues could be the RAM. Use Zero tolerance DIP I.C. sockets for the RAM, if you decide to re-install the original PCB.
I’m having an issue around the object priority … it works but sprites blank out objects above.
Just wanted to say that your comments are turned off for the newest video of your liberator you sold. Also, I do have a question of how much did you sell the liberator if you don’t mind me asking? I ask because I own an all original liberator in pretty much mint condition. Not planning on selling it but there isn’t many liberators sold to know an exact value
I think like 2500 ?
I need cooler neighbors..
You're a social worker? Dog bless you, that's a rough job.
It’s rewarding but tough!
