Mr. Do Update: Better Luck Next Time :(

Well, in a little over 24 hours after we made the push to try to get Mr. Do back into Rusty Quarters, it looks as though it has been bought.  Sadly, not by us.  We'll keep an eye out for another Mr. Do cabinet, and hopefully it will be more local and therefore easier to pick up and bring to the arcade.

There is actually another cabinet that is available in the Twin Cities (and for an INCREDIBLY cheap price) that may be a game to consider getting.  The game is Rush 'N' Attack, a Konami classic that was very big on the NES when the system launched in the mid 80's and has a great Cold War vibe.


While the game is not on the Top 5 List of games to get, it's still a pretty great game, especially for the price the seller is looking for ($100!).  As it has been mentioned before, however, the FORQ funds are tapped at the moment due to the purchase of Street Fighter II.

We have had a friendly dialogue going with the seller, and while we encourage the seller to make sure he can be successful in finding a buyer, we are on his short list, if we're able to raise the funds.

If you're able to donate, please do so by clicking here to access the PayPal link.  The more classic cabinets we can get into Rusty Quarters, the better!
