It took a motorcycle accident to motivate me into making this video of my curated retro gaming collection. I trashed my bike, and I'm lucky to be alive. (It was a freak occurrence, and thankfully no one else was involved.) Call me a quitter, but I'll never ride again.

I should have listened to my wife.

Now that I'm ambulatory, I feel like I have a new lease on life, and I'm not putting things off any longer. Producing this tour was a footnote on a long list of stuff I've wanted to do. In a dramatic departure from my patented perfectionism, I banged out this walkthrough and blog entry in less than a day. I don't even know myself anymore.


Enjoy the video!


BONUS: If arcade cabinets are more to your liking than playing on a TV, join the club! Here's a look at my coin-op games. You can see the arcade in more detail here. This setup was at the previous house, and these behemoths are currently in storage. They'll have their day soon enough, and you can check out the new arcade here on Retro Injection. Spoiler alert: It'll be my biggest game room ever!
