I'll check it out, thanks :) I need to investigate other museums and
galleries in San Francisco before I go.<br>

<pre wrap="">For those going to GDC, the Musee Mecanique at Pier 45 on Fisherman's Wharf is well worth the trip out of the convention center.

Not been there no, I will eventually get around to contacting him about
his museum - along with the other museums we know about, since he hosts
everything from these mechanical items up to present day stuff, pretty
amazing.

<pre wrap="">This is an amazing website. A great find: it has heaps of info on
electro mechanical arcade games --
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://marvin3m.com/arcade/index.htm">http://marvin3m.com/arcade/index.htm</a> -- including got posters, photos,
manufacturers' info, etc. Most helpful for my current project: an
exhibition of documentary photos taken in arcades (or other spaces
with arcade machines) in the 1970s and 80s in New Zealand. Many are at
the crossover of electro-mechanical to video. I will let the list know
when it's online (due to launch next month).
Has anyone been to Marvin's and played the games?
You just gotta love collectors!

I should post this in the blog perhaps, but I think it's not a
videogame as such, although it is a game!
