I'm trying to get a Battlezone upright project ready to sell. It was working then I put it in storage for 6 years and dragged it across the country in a Uhaul. It powers up and the screen comes on but displays random jumping lines. Other times no lines, the background displays but you can't see...

Hi everyone. It looks like I'm moving overseas and that means I have to get rid of everything that isn't essential. Unfortunately that means these have to go. These are just starting prices, you don't think they're fair, make me an offer. I'm a reasonable guy and want to make a deal. I've...

Oh and I saw a Guerilla War with a wonky controller for 175. But I was never a fan of Ikari Warriors.

What's the general consensus on this game? I got a line on one for 125 but I gotta drive 3 hours each way for it. Is the gameplay that entertaining to justify 200 bucks in gas? Or is it just so so and would be worth picking up if it was local?

Absinthe IS legal to buy online and have shipped to your house!

Fair enough. I'll keep an eye out for monitor orientation. I've seen up to 1096-in-1's. Seems that alot of the boards throw in alot of junk games. Various releases of the same. Still haven't found one with the "perfect" set.

Years ago I began building a small mame cab. I moved across the country a few times and it's been collecting dust. Now that i'm settled i'm seeing all of these multi jamma pcb's. This looks like a simpler solution. No computer to setup, ipac, arcade vga etc etc. I understand that these can plug...

Yeah I remember thinking Pit Fighter was great. I played it the other day. Ugh. I went through the same thing recently with the He-Man series. Growing up nothing was better than He-Man. I found some episodes and I can't get through an entire one. Either I didn't know any better growing up or...

Wow. That's too bad. I was thinking though. It's one thing to muddle around and fix a game, it's another to be caught upside down in a game because you didnt know what you were doing.

I didn't realize TT was that common. I figured not many of them made it out of the factory since the game sucked so bad. Hell it would be worth 500 bucks just for the weirdness of it. Definitely not a game I would expect to find in somebody's gameroom. 15k? Wow. I never would have imagined...

Now that I am finally somewhat settled down and have room for fullsized arcade cabs, I've been thinking of games that really fascinated my when i was growing up. The two that really jump out at me are Time Traveler and R-360. Granted Time Traveler was an atrocious game, but it always amazed me...

Poor Narc? Poor me for having played it! Seriously, I would never convert a crappy game into another cab but damn Narc sucks. I was thinking maybe my memory was wrong. So I fired up mame last night and yep it sucks. Sorry to all you Narc lovers.

The panel looks good. The left stick wont center at all and the right stick, kinda centers. The left stick is wrapped up in electrical tape. So I guess just a left stick and the parts to get them to re center.

I'm needing a set of controllers for Battlezone. The set I have now, dont recenter themselves and they're held together with electrical tape. Anybody got a set?

Lindsey thanks for the tip. If the problem gets too bad, I'll definitely be giving them a call. Pacmandude, thanks for the advice on rings. I knew that sometimes pc power supplies could hold voltage but I wasn't 100% that a power supply this old could do the same. Mongo, i'm going to take your...
