Visit Michael Jackson’s Arcade – Without Getting Molested

Michael Jackson's Arcade Machines

The king of pop is dead. So is his awesome collection of arcade machines, as he had to sell them all off earlier this year when he ran out of money and needed to try to get his life back on track (shoulda held onto those, eh?).

But seriously, if there is one thing that Jacko and I had in common it’s our love of arcade games. This guy’s collection really took the cake, the whole damn bakery even, and pretty much every noteworthy arcade cab ever made appears in this 3D virtual tour somewhere. He also had some spiffy vintage bicycles, ride on toys, and movie memorabilia too.

I’d really love my own arcade – it’d be perfect for entertaining the kids (not mine – other people’s, of course).

Where did I make him sound like a creep? I thought it was a very sympathetic article. He was well known for entertaining lots of children over the years – he certainly touched a lot of them in a very special way.

I’m quite honoured actually, “hack” is the closest I’ve ever been to being called a proper journalist.

:D
