I was looking for cabinet for a MAME in Montreal so google ''arcade montreal'' and maaca is the first site. Lots of info and the french section is good for me Don't post a lot but looking everday. I still don't start my Mame project, but I'm helping a friend to restore is Cue Ball Wizard with the advice from a couple of guys here.
Maybe we can have and auction here in Montreal too like Starburst in Toronto.. A lot of people pm me for DEAD cab at 125$, not really a deal.

Long story short, arcardes were the family business in the late 70s to the mid-80s and after having numerous games in the basement from the age of 5 onwards, I miss it. then the GF tells me I need a hobby since I seem.. bored.... woohooo!
I googled last night, "montreal arcade" and this site was the first hit.
My wife keeps telling me I need a new hobby too.. except it HAS to be home renovations

I sold a pin (Cirqus Voltaire) to pins only, hasn't everyone? He mentioned this site and I have been enjoying it since. Great to find others with the same interest, some great info and tips. I am starting to feel like I know some of you guys from the frequent posts.
Found it on some old timey pinball 'webring'. I guess they're still useful for something!
