I actually have a prototype of the Generation NEX. When they first came out we were able to preorder them for pick up at the Classic Gaming Expo, When I went to pick mine up all the units weren't in yet and they said by end of show they would have them. When the show was getting ready to end they hadn't got them in and was telling people that they would send them to our house. well since the show was ending he asked if I wanted the prototype that they were displaying instead of having one sent out, I took the one they had. It works and everything but you can see that different boards were used and see wires in the unit that aren't in the other ones. anyways just thought I'd share.

Here's the old NES collection in it's prime... the games are 3 deep.
Here's an older photo of my Saturn stuff. I'm working on new updated photos as I've moved everything, picked up 2 new shelves and have many new games.
This is my Red Tent (sister playing), such a fun little arcade. I need to get the other side working, it has Castlevania VS

And then you have to invite me over to rock the crap out of 2 player Castlevania VS!

All of these pictures are awesome. I'm not in a permanent home right now so most of my stuff is in storage :/ When I get the chance I'll post something.

I picked up the Red Tent for $100 on KSL.com (Utah Classifieds). It was missing some buttons and 1 of 2 monitors. I put about $250 into restoring it, powdercoat was most of the cost and lots of time. There's basically two monitors and a PCB board with two NES on it. Up to two games can be loaded into it at once, mostly 2 player. But some games can be loaded on both sides for 4 player action. Some of the games are VERY similar (and older) to their NES variations, and usually have better music and are much more difficult. The games(rom chips + cpu + security chip) can be purchased online for around $40 and placed into the PCB. This guy has an amazing site about this particular arcade and is the best resource out there for it:

There are great resources out there for finding new or original replacement parts if someone decides to take on a project like this. My personnel favorite is KLOV:

Lots of very helpful people there.
