Not Telling
Hi there all !
My name's Eric, I'm from the South of France and I'm very happy to join this nice forum !
I have already posted a topic about my hobby, but it is not the only one I have.
I am fond of books, manga, movies, motorcycles, rock music and other things...
I also like writing (already been plublished in a mag here but nothing serious) and I draw cartoons
when I have some time.
Happily married with a cute japanese woman I am of course trying to learn the language but it is
a bit hard, especially the kanjis..;
Oh, I teach English at a local high school, too, that explains why I like the language !
Bye for now !
Ah I have also two fora that I have started very recently. One is for bartop building, ans is in English.
You'll find it in the thread I have started in the DIY section.
The other is in French, so if you want to brush up your French there you're welcome..
It's there :

Building your own bartop arcade machine

Hi there !
I'm new on this forum and have not found out where or if there is a thread to present oneself, sorry !
Maybe I haven't looked too thoroughly
Anyway, as I see that there is a DIY thread on this forum, I may as well present my own hobby.
I have always been interested in arcades, have not the space in my flat or the cash to buy an actual full-size cab nor a Japanese candy cab, so I decided to build my own.
Notice that all the invaders on the build are ceramic tiles assembled in a mosaic pattern, painted and varnished for UV resistance.
This is a vertical shmups bartop. There are only arcade shoot'em ups on it, nearly 230, never had thought there were so many !
Anyway, I have also created a forum for bartop enthusiasts, I think it's the first and only one of this kind.
If you want to visit and hang around there also, you're welcome. We're very few, it's just a place for the kick of talking about our builds and whatever, but of course you're free to join us, even if you don't plan to build a bartop.
Be careful, though, it is a very addictive hobby
