TMNT Jamma Boards are not a hard thing to come across.

TMNT Turtles In Time, now thats a tough one, although, I still managed it.

TMNT 4 Player Arcade Machine £450

For the Jamma boards alone its

TMNT 2 player £30
TMNT 4 player £50

TMNT Turtles In Time 2 Player £80

Well Mr. "I'm the undisputed king on TMNT gaming" for most of us it would be awesome.

Seriously man if I had any clue how to hook up an arcade machine I'd be all over it green on a turtle!

But obvioulsy to you it's nothing special. You do afterall have both arcades... lucky son of a gun... Where did you get them anyway? My collection will never be TRUELY complete without them. Of course I could always just say I have all the console and GB TMNT games because that's entirely true. Until the new ones come out in less than a month... if I don't buy them right off the bat. GCN's price drop is fabulous though. Now I'll be able to get a GCN, TMNT, and a memory card for about 170 bucks. Not too shabby I'd say.

Turtles in Time is my next project. I'm just happy that I managed to find the first one for the moment. I mean, MAME runs it just fine, but it just feels teriffic to own the real thing.

I got them both from a place based in the UK called Arcade Warehouse
www.arcadewarehouse.com

sadly, they dont ever update their site anymore, but they still sell stuff on ebay,


And yah i agree, before owning the arcade machine i played it on MAME (of course, i had played it before in arcades when i was 3 years old)

While MAME seemed excelent at the time, nothing compares to the real thing, the speech is crystal clear, and when you hit a parking metre it doesnt make that horrible hi toned Clang.
And the music doesnt skip and you notice that the drums are much more clearer, and they bassically rock. You could actully nodding you head to the music while ure playing the game.

Good thing with my TMNT cabinet is that i hooked up a mircroswitch that dangles out of the coin slot. so i press the contact button on it, and it gives me a credit. press it really fast and her it go COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COWABUNGA!!!!

Of course the real machine is always better than emulator. Too bad it's very hard to find old arcade machines here.

Good idea. Good luck winning a million dollars or striking it rich in the mines or something.
