What's new
I have a lot of new products from KOWAL, Buttercade and of course Murakumo Arts to put up on the site over the next few days. If you are chasing something specific, let me know so I can put it aside for you.
Cheers.
 
Are you getting the button snap out tool for 24mm and 30mm from Buttercade? I think I'd be keen on that - if you could please put one of each aside for me to go along with my order whenever it arrives that'd be great!

Hey love the shop :), Would you consider stocking more korean joystick parts? already really happy that you have the 309MJ, it would be great to also be able to get these other parts locally, extremely hard to ever justify buying these when istmalls shipping alone costs more than a whole selection of parts.
Just a little wish list:

Yes indeed! I have multiple of each size mate - putting them aside for you now.

Thanks very much for taking the time to steer me towards the parts you are chasing. This helps me out a lot.
I will get onto this now and all going to plan, have most of this gear on the next shipment.
PM me anything you may want specifically to be set aside, should you need to.
Thanks again mate!
 
^ This is cool. @xb74 is there a fighting game community around Aust that you are/can get in on so all these dudes can pimp their sticks out?

I mean I can imagine you having a booth at a tournament and selling heaps of stuff.

I would love to mix it in that type of surrounding!
Part of this store endeavour has involved me being dragged kicking and screaming into FB and Twitter to connect to these people and groups.
It has proved very interesting and challenging and opened up dialog with many people worldwide.
I am not near a capital city which severely limits my exposure to these in-person events unfortunately.
The distance won't dissuade me from future planning a booth down south in the next few years :) Sounds like a lot of fun!
 
Pulled my finger out of the very comfortably lazy ass of mine ....

Bout time i finished off this cabinet that was sold to me as a hunk of electrical incompantence & huslled by July astrological bullshit ( it could play pcb's / mame but fuckin hell! ... ) at least it came with a bag of pot.

Small steps ,

The pcb board i like and gave it a finish close to a Steinway.

I was working on trying to emulate an original Taito E2 step down , but in 2022 i think it will be smarter to draw a fine line between keeping the 1996 aesthetic & keeping it kinda safe.
Im not a sparkie , so I figure at the 240v input I dont / shouldn't just use terminal blocks just cos "Taito did" .....

Willing to be convinced otherwise as my ocd really wants me to make the OG.



My E2 will be 100% original wiring harness / connections / etc , everything " new school " will be adaptable ....

Amazing how a 3yrs break , does clarify and clears the mind and approach problems with fresh thinking ( wank wank justification for procrastinating ) .... But shit I must of have some awesome madizm in the winter of '19 :)



Open to ideas about my mame / saidaioujou pc build , obvs not their design ( as it pretty self explanatory to understand) but this kinda open mounting i kinda dig .....Easy to adapt to a mounted arcade build i reckon ....

On the hunt for a classic OG CRT wooden cab, chammafied with a Pandora's Box in it for a bar I work in. Not after anything modern, LCD or flatpack.

Doesn't have to be flash but has to be functional. Main requirements are a working $1/$2 coin-mech and a 2P control panel for 6-Button fighting games.

For price reference, they recently picked up nice TATE Gottlieb Challenger cab for $350 but the monitor isn't easily rotatable, so they figured getting another cab and running them side-by-side is the way. Willing to move up in price, but would kinda shy away from anything over $500.

Please let me know if you see something, prefer a local pick up in Brissy but if there's something around Syd or Melbs, could always get Bill to transport it.
 
Interest check:
Arcade/fightstick display stand.

These are handmade in QLD from a variety of woods and are able to withstand the height/weight of all the contemporary and legacy fightsticks.
The example here is Camphor Laurel.

I hope to offer pricing in the $60 - $80 region as I am still in the early stages of arrangements with the woodworkers.

Let me know if you even have a passing interest. Thanks for your continued support. Have a great weekend!

Terminal blocks are fine for mains voltage. Proper blocks will be rated for the voltage and current going through.
 
On 5th September Australia Post parcel service prices go up about 5%, slightly lower prices for letters.

Looking at about $10 minimum now for any parcel.

These are amazing! Might be something I’ll consider down the line for space saving purposes.
