I think this is worth another bump, as it needs only 400 more supporters with 24 days to go. Also, the idea submitter added a Hang-On build to the project: And of course it leans. :D

My order (placed March 31) shipped today.

I know I'm repeating myself, but I really don't mind the waiting. The lack of communication is the sore point. Bearing in mind there is no option to cancel an order on the Jammaboards website, I can only assume I would need to send an email to do so. An email that the past month has shown me...

I'm aware that it is a side business, and have kept it in mind. I don't mind waiting 30, or even 60 days for my order to be fulfilled. The lack of communication is the only real issue. Asking for a status update on a 3 week old order is reasonable, not difficult or demanding.

Sure thing.

I just got finished sending a message to that one. We'll see what happens.

I placed an order March 31st for an in-stock JAMMA PCB to Pacman cab adapter. A week later I used the contact form on the site to request a status update on my order. I heard nothing back. I've tried calling the phone number at the site, but it just directs you to use the web form or email...

Montgomery fellow here, just down the road from you. Congrats on the nice find!

Hey guys. I have a Ms. Pac-Man that sat in storage for several years. After I pulled it out and brought it to my house, the sound stopped working after about 30 minutes of play. This happened some time ago, and I've just been too busy to deal with it. Other than the lack of sound, it's...

I replaced the remaining 3900s, and swapped the new ones around just in case, but it didn't change anything. I was about to replace the 74174s, but noticed that the chips on the board are 74174Ns, and the chips I ordered are just 74174s. I don't know if that's okay, so unless someone tells me...

The static is still there. Also, the 'Invader Destroyed' sound gets faster and sounds kind of wonky after playing for a couple minutes. I have a couple 74174s I can replace. If those aren't the problem, I'll be ordering more parts. I have to order some Ms. Pac-Man parts anyway. We'll see...

I replaced another LM3900 (at 29) while at lunch, and the 'Invader Destroyed' sound is back. I was so happy I forgot to check for the presence of the soft static. :)

My parts came in today, and I replaced the LM3900s at 26, 27, and 28. I got back the base shooting sound, and the base destroyed sound. So there were simultaneous failures of multiple parts. Oddly, when you first shoot, the game starts making a soft static sound that continues until the...

Thanks. It was actually the owner of that site that referred me here. It's been a very helpful page though. It's helped me get as far as I have.

I got an old Taito Space Invaders Part II cocktail a week ago. All of the sounds were working fine until 2 nights ago. Suddenly, the 'base fire', 'base destroyed', and 'invader destroyed' sounds don't work. These three pots are all located adjacent to each other. (pots 2, 3, and 4) I'm sure...
