Thanks everyone for the business advice. This isn't something I came up on a whim this weekend, it's been in the planning stages for 4 years now and a lot of thought, changes, strategies, consulting has gone on in the background. Over the years I purchase a total of 12 arcade machines from sit...
Looking to start up a Retro arcade and wondering if there is a place to purchase some inventory. I know Captains exists, is there other options out there people recommend?
Thanks will start a thread there. I understand your opinion. I have about 10 machines I've collected over the years and understand they can be problematic, especially monitors. But when starting up an arcade I would want to stock it up and purchase in bulk. Also my area sucks for Facebook ads...
What are the alternatives? I'm looking to open a retro arcade and Captains seems like a nice one stop shop, even though it's on the other side of the country, is there anything similar or alternatives for a large-ish quantity of retro games to start up a retro arcade?
Is Captains not posting the prices anymore? I went on there today (Nov 10th) to see what things sold for as I like to see trends and keep tabs on how much machines are going for and for the first time they are listing items as sold and no final price. :(
Yes converting it to Mortal Kombat 2
I figured coin door, marquee light etc is already wired to the current jamma harness, would it be wise to put a new jamma harness and leave the old one? Would just make for a rats nest. Plus I never see that cabinet ever going back to Radikal Bikers
I believe it's a Well Gardner. Not sure the model. I think it's a u5000, not sure.
How do I find out which model number it is?
Also I think I see some areas that have a brown liquid at the base of the cap. Are these a concern?
Finally does this chassis need an isolation block?
I'm looking into converting my Radikal Bikers jamma into a regular Jamma. I guess Radikal Bikers didn't use a standard jamma.
I'm trying to avoid cutting wires so I want your opinion, what is the best way to convert this to a standard jamma?
Is it easy to just remove the wires from the...
Wooops, I did drive. Thanks, I'll have to go back and adjust again. This one is hard because the cardboard really covers the pots. I have to go up and over the cardboard and down again and feel around to find the pots.
