New Life Games Tech Forums

First of all, I took these pictures before I got a slot machine.  The slot is an IGT S+ Money Storm located against the wall opposite the pinball machines.
I just recently sold a couple other video games to make room for the Sinbad and Eight Ball Deluxe pinball machines.  This should be my 'final' game lineup, although I've said that before.

NICE Setup....THANKS for sharing!  :3-

I think this is only about the fourth 'final' lineup.  The problem is, once you get all your games working you have to pick up a project to have something to work on.  Then you don't have room for it and have to get rid of something.

But I'm sure I don't have to explain that to most of the folks here!

Love the Tempest

Thanks!  Tempest is my favorite game, and I've owned 6 of them and 3 have been restorations.  I buy one, restore it, buy another converted one, then sell the recently completed one to fund the next resto.  Too bad I loose money when I sell them, it costs more to restore than the games value.  The feeling of bringing one back from a bad conversion is worth it though.

Here are some pictures of my latest restore.  I plan on keeping this one!

Yeah, gotta love the Tempest.  Still trying to find one on the cheap....

Nice setup...

Tempest was one of my favorite games back in those days. I almost bought one from an arcade for $200 back in the mid-80s (or was it the early 80s?) when they were getting rid of it to make room for newer games. I just didn't have the room for it in my tiny apartment. :37-

Great job restoring those machines Paladin. :3- :3-

Great looking restore you got there. I also loved the Tempest game.  :89- Always is a blast to play. Good looking arcade, i wish mine was that big.  :96-

Good work and thanks for sharing, it made my day lol.

You've taken on some diverse projects.  :3- :3-
Have you considered mentioning newlifegames.net as a resource on the page detailing your fix of the Bally E-series Harrah's machine? It's just a friendly suggestion, of course -- no pressure.lol. :96- :97- :97-

Great suggestion StatFreak!  I just added some text and a link to this site.

Very nice job!!   :3- :3- :3-
