The Quest for the 'Space Cadets' Arcade Game

Calling all retro arcade enthusiasts! Remember the 'Space Cadets' arcade game from the spin-off of the cartoon with the same name? It was kinda rare, even in the 80s. The cabinet design was wild, shaped like a little spaceship and all. I’ve been dying to find it again, remember putting so many quarters into that machine. There’s gotta be someone here who knows where one’s hiding, right? Or at least got a pic?

If it's that rare, even if you find it, it’ll cost an arm and a leg. Maybe try emulators? Not the same but hey, it's something.

Space Cadets, quite the collector's treasure. I actually worked on restoring one a few years back. The electrics were a nightmare! I can reach out to the owner, see if he’s willing to share pics or even showcase it. Will get back to ya if I find something.

I totally remember Space Cadets! That spaceship design was iconic. If I recall correctly there was this old spot in Nevada that had one. Place shut down years ago tho 😔. Maybe reach out to arcade preservationists? They might have a lead or at least point you to someone who does!

Space Cadets was so cool! The lights and sounds were ahead of its time. Don't have a pic, sadly. Nostalgia's hitting me hard now. 😢

Tracking down Space Cadets is like hunting for unicorn blood. I've been after that game for years. Only seen it once at a trade show in the late 90s and haven't seen hide nor hair of it since. You might want to reach out to arcade restorers or companies that specialize in retro games. They have networks and resources that us mere mortals can only dream of.

Oh man, Space Cadets was my JAM. The cabinet was so distinct, never seen anything else like it. I don't have a pic, but I'll def hit up a few collector forums I'm part of and see if anyone's got the scoop. Fingers crossed someone's got that gem tucked away!
