Creative Ideas / Items Needed for my Gameroom – Please!

WOW – lots of great ideas so far!

Let’s see:

1) Popcorn Machine – Anyone know of one made that is 16″ deep or less?
I would love to have one!

2) Soda Machine – Got one (see picture 5) – dispenses 3 different
beers (Guinness, Bass & Sammy Adams) and 9 different sodas – to deep
for this area, but a MUST HAVE!

3) Wall Game – Anyone have one in the Mid-atlantic area – always
wanted one, but never seem to find it . . .

4) Vintage Gas Pump – Cool idea, very expensive (to me) since I like
interactive things; but if the price was right, I’d grab one!

5) Neon – always like neon – right now I have the Playboy Bunny Head
and always keeping an eye out for something cool (maybe a wall of
neon??? Nah).

6) Tolken or Change Machine – I stupidly have everything on Free Play
or I would have jumped all over this idea

7) Booze Barometer – a possibility

8) Cigar Store Indian – Another Great idea – will keep an eye out for
one.

9) Candy Machine Rack – already have 2 machines that total 11
different candies – a big item for the kids parties.

10) Ice Cold Beer game is to deep – Damn!

11) Classic Vids – Are there ANY 16″ deep or less??? (PS – I will
hold onto the Neo-Geo – love the games and I really do not see having
the space for a lot of single game vid cabs when I can have multiple
choices in 1 cabinet! Then, again, I’m a pin guy at heart). Also have
the big screen TV with SNES, N64 and PS2 wired in and just got a
Megatouch. Think I’m OK with vids for now.

So right now, the ideas I can use in that spot are the Popcorn Machine
(under 16″ deep), the Cigar Store Indian and a Booze Barometer (I still
want a wall game for a different spot in the room).

Keep the ideas coming . . .

Thanks,
