NEW ANNOUNCEMENT STUFF!
We have a client portfolio that would make most advertising execs cream their pants!
Some of our clients are MADMAN Entertainment / Anime Lab with Kotaku, SONY BMG, Hewlett Packard, Ingram Micro, Smiths Chips, Sports clubs and dozens of Advertising agencies around the country. Also lots of people who just want a touch of nostalgia in their homes. Seriously, why would you trust other guys when big names contact us for their promotions.
Every one of our cabinets has a premium option. Our cabinet style is our own design so if you see it elsewhere it's an inferior clone at double or almost triple the price. Why pay $3000-$5000 elsewhere when we're the original designers and manufacturers at less than half the price?
Just because we're cheap doesn't mean that the quality is cheap buddy. We're trusted by huge companies for a reason. We also have over 25 custom designs!

We now mod and upgrade Arcade 1-up machines. If you've made the mistake of buying one it's ok, we forgive you. I mean you can get our own mini arcade (pics below) for $950 with custom graphics and 30,000 games, but it's ok, we'll upgrade yours.
We now accept trade-ins too. (I don't know why this is in DANGER red and yellow)
OK OK fine, we'll also fix your machine you bought elsewhere and they won't help because they have shitty service. Jeez. FINE!

Custom Built Arcade Machines, Arcade Repairs and Upgrades
(and maybe some swords, If I'm feeling cute, I dunno)
TWe also accept Bitcoin and Other Crypto
Except shitcoins, but you can always convert them to real coins
Pssst! wanna buy the best arcade machine on the market?
Sure, you say, but why are you wearing a trenchcoat and hiding in a dark alley? (one might also ask)
You see, our machines are so popular that other guys are cloning them, even our ads! so we've had to resort to flashing people in alleyways, among other things.
In fact we've fixed so many of their machines that we do it free for anyone that has been burnt by those fine individuals. You can even ship it to us free on our account if you pay the return shipping.
Don't take our word for it, check their Google reviews. Oh wait, they don't have any...
All of our cabinets (Except commercial ones) come default with over 30,000 games built in. WTF you say? 30 thousand? (We had to spell it out because people think it's a misprint). Simply plug it in, turn it on and slightly pee yourself (or on others) with joy.
All Cabinets are designed and hand built here from the ground up, so they're fully customisable, size, colour, electronics, design, any mods you can dream of.
NOW DOING REPLICAS TOO! Seriously, you guys are stressing me out here. Original replicas which we'll charge you through the nose for, or our machines with replica artwork which will cost you less and save an argument with your significant other, or with yourself. We don't judge.
Have your own design? no problem!
NOW WITH CUSTOM GRAPHICS!!! OMG!!!!!!!!! honestly that wasn't mehones
For mobile users, click the "show more" button for more pics. i know i know, we shouldn't have to tell people that.
Check out the entire build process video below in time lapse, or check us out on Facebook and Youtube

You can see the infamous blog where I destroy difficult clients at www.taint.net.au though or....
I'm doing my reddit posts on YouTube every week.

OMG shutup Chelsea!
We design, build, fix and upgrade arcade machines, We've been in the industry since the late 90's, yes we're old, that means experience as well as senility.
WE DO accept your designs and can build whatever the heck you want, we don't ask why. ok we do but not often
WE DON'T copy other guys cabinets though, that would just be plain rude (send us an email and we'll work something out...shh)
WE DO accept cash, Paypal, credit cards, slaves, marriage proposals, bags of stolen money and we'll even trade for stuff if it's something interesting enough.
BUT we won't accept any junk or Apple related products (except pie, everyone loves pie) no iphones or ipads or anything like that, it's complicated, don't be annoying
WE LOVE people dropping by for a coffee and a chat ( please call ahead ), play a few games, get beaten miserably, don't make it awkward though, come in, hang around a little then go away.
Sick of all the overpriced (and cheaply made) boutiquey, Nancyboy arcade machines out there that feel so cheap and nasty they might give you an std?
What? Your friend has one with a 19 inch screen and 60 games you say? Laugh at them and call them girly names this instant.
We've been building these for over 20 years. I even wrote some of the software so I know these intimately. In fact, Our machines are so popular other sellers even copy them poorly! Naughty. Ok they might be a little cheaper but half their games don't work and they're clueless in general. We know because we fix their mistakes.
Everything is built by hand from scratch, the cabinet, the electricals, everything, so you can call the shots as to how big or small you want it, how mean or girly etc if you're into something a little different.
All the classics you remember are on this, as well as all the ones you don't remember, the ones your friends remember but you've never heard of, the obscure Japanese ones that you scratch your head at and all the ones you also hated.
Comes with over 860 pinball machines, true replicas of all the old classics from the days when you were a stud muffin pinball wizard with a cool moustache.
Machines can also double as a jukebox, piss off your significant other by cranking 80's funk whilst conquering Galaga, then get told off for being stuck in the past.
You can also crank 80's rock and any other appropriate (or inappropriate) music.
Is your mate trying to one up you with his shitty import cabinet? No problem, throw in a USB drive and watch a movie, surf the internet on your arcade machine and google his name followed by a derogatory comment and put him in his place.
Wow him with the shear number of games he doesn't have and then point and laugh at his inadequateness. Yours is bigger after all.
You will either be adored by millions (or just Shane around the corner) or possibly hated by them because they're haters. who needs them anyway when you have one of these. (I'm so lonely)
We've crammed as much goodies in them as possible. I actually die a little inside everytime i sell one. They grow up so fast.
