Anyone? Also willing to trade for something else. Lemme know. Would love to get my hands on a mortal kombat or street fighter machine.

Trying to sell this thing locally and on the interwebs and thought I'd check here for possible trades. A buddy of mine is looking to get one of those crane games where you can win stuffed animals, so I figured I'd see if anyone has one they're willing to trade for. I have no clue what these...

After much fiddling, I think I found the sweet spot on that thing. Been fine the past few days. Now on to the width issues...adjusting the width coil doesn't seem to do anything...

Hello, I'm new to this whole thing and am trying to get Donkey Kong up and running. Here's what I've run into so far: Loud hum - ordered the cap kit from Bob Roberts and that solved that. Power supply - The -5 volt rails weren't working, only got a white screen when that was hooked up. Got a...
