Check out a tool called winutil. It's a powershell script / applet that debloats W10/11 pretty fast (if you haven't already) you can opt out of stuff like the AI etc etc

Every now and then, a YT vid comes along and you just become glued to the screen. This story is so fascinating - I can't imagine the amount of time effort and research that went into it. Welcome back Uncle Derek

Another cab candy from the archives - this one will be the one featured in the full tutorial video. Love the SNK Neo

WB no one cares about Game of Thrones. Sincerely, everyone.

oh damn didn't know you stopped! hope you've been doing well

Video of it working (takes any coin)

This was my first arcade designed for a CNC machine. The idea was to capture the same essence of an Astro City while trying to keep the design within the restrictions of "flat pack" / panels of MDF. Even has a working candy cab style coin mech.

Will probably revisit this one again later on!

Any Third Strike fans? I use a small frontend that allows me to make themes fairly quickly. This one is based on Street Fighter III: Third Strike

Galaxy World, Sydney (More picture after the break) The second arcade I visited whilst I was in Australia, which was called Galaxy World, had a great selection of games. The most exciting for me had to be Stern Pinball…

Australia, specifically a franchise we had called Galaxy World. old write up about it here arcadeheaven.wordpress.com/galaxy-world...

ooft yeah I remember seeing tons of these in arcades in the 2000s, heaps of blast clones
