I made this table on casters with a 36" height surface to match with my basment arcade. Previously the consoles were in the way and didn't fit in.

Capcom's Ghost 'n Goblins (Arcade Bootleg)
I recently picked up this cool bootleg of Ghosts 'n Goblins. This is the same as Capcom's version, just some bootleggers copied the hardware and ROMs and sold this cheaper to arcade operators back in the 1980's.

Propcycle Perfect Run & World's 2nd Best Score

Fixed rattling coin mechs in Donkey Kong
The coin mechs in my Donkey Kong cabaret arcade cabinet would rattle whenever Donkey Kong jumped and made the booming sound. This was because on a Cabaret cabinet the mechs are right next to the speaker. I used some foam to deaden the sound and it fixed the problem.
PropCycle World Record High Score Practice and Morning Exercise

So far I have scored over 15,000 points, the world record is 18,000 so far I am in second place. I also talk about a few other things at the end of this video if you want to skip ahead.
