Hi all and intro myself

[arcadecalgary]

How doo all , this is my inaugural posting here, first about myself, I am from Calgary Alberta Canada and have been into collecting arcade games for about 10 years now(hence the handle) , I recently won my first paschislo machine from ebay and am sure I will catch the bug the same with these as i did with the arcade games. The machine I won is a streetfighter 2 and would like a few opinions on it if possible, would like to win a lasvegas eventually as well as maybe a terminator but the funds have to replenish after xmas lol. looking forewards to your replies and looking foreward to many years here on the forums and hopefully eventually helping out other newbies as I delve deeper into this hobby

You are a member of a new nation, Pachination

The concept of PachiTalk was to bring together anyone and everyone who has a passion for these amazing Japanese creations. Once you stepped through the doors at PachiTalk.com, you become part of the Pachination.
You are no longer Japanese, American, English, Italian, German, etc. (If I missed you I am sorry). You are now considered a Pachinational, put that on an application! We are all one big entity amongst ourselves and our Pachis. Segregation is not our philosophy and the seperating of diffent cultures will not happen, we are one, under the Pachi Flag.

We are the United Nations of Pachiland....

WELCOME TO PACHITALK

[Chrisdice]

Welcome to Pachitalk. I have a Street Fighter II also. I enjoy playing it. Its not one of my favorites but it earned a place in the collection. Good luck with it.

[arcadecalgary]

yeah from what i have read on it its a solid machine, but not extordinary by any means , kinda fits with the theme of the poker den(converted our entire garage into an arcade/poker room). wife will spend more time out there friday nights with us cus she now has a slot lol. needed at least one to match the arcade thing , now its wide open once i get the cash together to fund a whole bank of em of different styles, the wife wants one or 2 with a native american feel to it too, if anyone has suggestions there it would help as well

Also have you read through the first section on the main page at the top titled "So You're New To Pachis" It goes over alot of the basics, and will answer alot of questions if you are new to the hobby.

Welcome to the fun!
Congrats on your 1st machine but one will never be enough.
I predict you will keep buying them until you run out of room and then buy some more.
Because if you don't have the fever yet,you soon will!!!

Hello there. I bought one in the year and now we've got four! addictive definitely. Enjoy your machine and dont forget you havent lived until you own a 'King Camel' pachislo. The greatest living tease slot on the market, never predictable and always amuses. Looks amazing too.

Welcome to PachiTalk, Arcade! You certainly have the right attitude, you'll fit right in here.

[rodtrotter]

i got my first pachislo 2months ago how i have 11 but i must say i only got some to sell on any way i got two street fights just to sell but now iam keeping one i like the 5 reals plus the battel mode is great but you must get a 'King Camel' i got one after wathing TJ's videos they play even better than they look and by the way welcome to the club

[slothappy144]

Welcome aboard! clear out the garage and setup more stands these things are more addicting than nicotine. they multiply like rabbits in heat. Don't watch tonyJuniours videos or you will rent a Uhaul and empty your coffers getting machines.

Welcome!

One thing you should try as you look for your next machines(s) is peruse the ebay auctions and the dealer sites that are linked here. If something catches your eye because of price, theme, whatever, come back and do a search for it in the forums, take a look in the museum or post asking for opinions. You'll make a much more informed purchase.
