First Piece Collected | Atari Tempest |
Favorite Piece | Atari Tempest |
Why It Is My Favorite | The WG6100 color vector monitor is amazing. |
Current Project(s) | Nonworking Capcom 1943 US in a Dynamo HS1 cab. |
Bio | Originally had an Atari Tempest in the 80s. Ended up losing that cabinet but found one for sale in June 2022 and purchased it. After that I went all in on the repair side of things and have been learning how to fix PCBs and bulletproof monitors. |

---|---|---|---|
Aztarac | Videogame | 1983 | Impossible to find, would just like to play on a dedicated machine at some point. |
Jurassic Park Arcade | Videogame | 2015 | Way too large and expensive... but it is the only modern game I like. If one needed a home, I would consider it. |
Mappy | Videogame | 1983 | Love the large marquee. I also enjoy the gameplay, even though Ive only seen a dedicated machine once. |
Q*bert | Videogame | 1982 | Interested in a fully functional cocktail or upright - cosmetics are secondary to functionality and completeness. |
Reactor | Videogame | 1982 | Such a unique game, and the sounds are awesome! Please let me know if there is ever one available in the arcade desert of NM. Thanks! |
Sundance | Videogame | 1979 | This game is neat and interesting. Super rare though, so finding one is unlikely, but you never know... |

Zia Comics | Las Cruces, New Mexico, United States | 3/5 | Mainly a comic shop, as the name states, but have an arcade room in the back. The video arcade stuff is mostly late 80’s/90’s. The pinball section has something from every era, and attract mode sounds are on. A fun place to visit every now and then. |
Rad Retrocade | Las Cruces, New Mexico, United States | 4/5 | Rad Retrocade is your standard barcade. The food is good and everything is 80’s themed. They have video arcade games and pinball spanning golden age to present. A few things to note would be that the games only accept tokens and that game repairs take a very long time (i.e. games will stay broken or in a partially working state for at least a week). Overall it is a nice family-friendly experience (bar is not open full-time). |
Arcade Dungeon (Pizza Mill & Sub Factory) | Alamogordo, New Mexico, United States | 5/5 | Amazing arcade and restaurant run by a KLOV member. The restaurant portion always has great service and the food is delicious. The arcade portion includes video arcade games and pinball machines from Bronze Age to present. Games are rotated out frequently and repairs are made promptly. The best arcade experience in NM! |
