    FS Game: Centipede U/R **SOLD**

    **SOLD** Not really in any hurry to sell this, and with everything going on, I'm not sure too many people are keen on travelling. With that out of the way, this is an all original, numbers matching, cabinet. Everything works as it should, with a couple minor electronic issues. Parts of the...

    How important are matching serial numbers?

    Thanks for all the info here. This game will probably end up for sale soon, and I think I will mention it, as I do think it is cool that somehow, it still is all original. Serial numbers never mattered to me, mainly because this is the first game I have had that has them matching.

    How important are matching serial numbers?

    Quick question here. Just bought a Centipede upright, and noticed that all the serial numbers match. This cabinet is a bit rough, and I was going to transfer everything into a better donor cabinet, but then that screws up the matching serial numbers. How important is it?

    Looking at getting a Space Duel, and I have questions

    Thanks for the vid link. Just watched it, and that explains it better than any other video I have seen.

    Looking at getting a Space Duel, and I have questions

    I think this is what I have going on, as it is really only out on the top, and more so on the top left corner. Everything else, center, right, bottom, is very good.

    Looking at getting a Space Duel, and I have questions

    I’m debating on trying to adjust convergence this weekend, and am looking for info on how to do this without dying, haha. I have the 6100 service guide, and have read through that. You mentioned the yoke might’ve been moved, or loose. Not really sure how to check that. I assume I should...

    That was what I was thinking, but I may just live with it for now. Convergence is one of those things I worry I will only make worse if I attempt it! My Neo Geo Goldie has slight convergence issues as well.

    Looking at getting a Space Duel, and I have questions

    Game is home now, and I spent some time with the monitor. Got the brightness where I want it, and the focus is good. The only issues I see is that the blue grid test is slightly out of alignment on the edges....really noticeable in the lavender grid, and also the yellow text near the top is...

    Looking at getting a Space Duel, and I have questions

    AVG will be ordered today! I'll look more at the monitor once I get it home tomorrow, but it looked pretty good. The vectors on the left side may be slightly out of alignment, but I'm happy overall. Thanks for everyone's help in this! I am very good at the pinball stuff, and have brought...

    Looking at getting a Space Duel, and I have questions

    Well, I purchased it, but haven't brought it home yet...staying at a friends house till Sat. Cabinet is not as bad as I thought, but will need some minor reinforcement. Plays really good, but I noticed it has not had the AVG chip replaced. Is that something I should go ahead and do? I also...

    Looking at getting a Space Duel, and I have questions

    No, this one, at least to my knowledge, has no monitor issues. I am trying to research the best way to fix the cracks, but everything I am finding assumes you will be sanding down the cabinet, and using new art. I am not messing with the original artwork if it is at all possible.

    Raspberry Pi in arcade cabinet for a dedicated board?

    I second the Arpicade suggestion. I have one in my Neo Geo Goldie, and just put one in a friends Burgertime cabinet. Works great with very little hassle.

    The seller did note these cracks, so it isn't like he is hiding them, and he says the cab is solid. I have bought and traded pins with him before, and he seems to be a straight up guy, so I think I may have a Space Duel in my arcade come Thursday!
