@misty the trick here is to jump straight to making the purchase and then deal with the aftermath of transporting it from wherever it is to you, finding space for it, and working out how to power the thing.

@misty I got one out of a dumpster once

I find myself in a situation where I'll have even slightly more room in my home than I’m used to and immediately jump to impractical ways to fill it

A slightly more practical version of this is to build an arcade cabinet around a Mister

@misty I used to have a Gyruss cabinet. Got it for $200 from someone at the office. Wish I had held on to it.

@misty yeah, I looked for Cadillacs & Dinosaurs every six months.

@TrashBoatDaGod I'm considering grabbing a MiSTer with one of those JAMMA output expansions! It looks pretty cool. I do have a few PCBs right now, just hooked up to my TV, so I'd be playing those to start.

@misty have you considered getting a dog or a couple of dogs

@misty Have you already reached the point where one room is dedicated to one of your hobbies?

@onelson @misty 2 dogs are better than 1

@grumpasaurus @onelson Well, that's all accurate

@jon I guess if you make the purchase without planning for it you just have to deal with it instead of getting bogged down in planning first

@misty exactly, what could possibly go wrong?
