Hi there

[Redsenga1]

Hello all, I'm Andrew 90’s gamer and video arcade veteran (player not maker) based in Berkshire (recommend to join by @Monstermug - really helpful guy) and happy to be here and looking to learn as have a Taito cocktail I purchased 10 years but finally getting the time to start my project finally, also looking at buy a Candy Cab (Astro city, SNG or Mini Cutie original or reproduction) as finished or to refurbish but no idea where to start on where to buy one and what essentials I need to consider - looked at I oorti g but advised most are fake from China etc (any knowledge on Candy cabs would be great to share or threads anyone can recommend I should read to get my learning up on this space).

Any guidance appreciated as well as any support or learnings I can share then happy to help and support.

Thanks in advance

Hi and welcome aboard.

Sounds like you have a nice starter project with your Taito cabinet. What game is it?

As for candies, they do come up for sale here, but you got to be quick.
Importing is not the option it once used to be.
Place a wanted ad up on here when you have decided what you want.
