Recently I attempted to boot up my 4P X-Men board which was in storage for a while. It played fine the last time I ran it which was a few years ago. Now when I boot it I get any one of the below issues and the game doesn’t boot. I tried cleaning it with a dust pad and some contact cleaner spray...

Obviously just about all games can be programmed to play on however many coins you want, or none at all even, but does anyone recall which game was the first where 50 cents became the norm for play over a quarter? I can't recall ever playing a Konami Beat Em Up back in the day that was more than...

I'm looking to raise some dough, so i'm considering selling Battletoads. This one seems to be quite rare, I don't see any that have sold on eBay or on here lately, and the only ones I see listed there are for pie in the sky prices above $500, and I don't think it's worth that. What would be a...

Anyone else notice this trend lately on Craigslist, or is it just me? Someone will list their cabinet for some absurdly high price, say a Ms. Pac for $1200, and it sits and they repost and it sits and they repost, and it goes like that for maybe a month or two. Then all of a sudden after a...

Ended up with a duplicate of this that I'm looking to get rid of. Everything is 100%, sound is fine, boots up fine, plays fine. Looking to get $130 shipped. PM me with an offer

Interesting look inside an Arcade factor circa 1980 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOh9HL-dOdQ Pretty interesting to see how much of that stuff back then was done by hand on an assembly line. Love the clips at the end of them finishing production on the NES stuff, including Howard Lincoln who...

Yeah, I know, me and everyone else. Just thought I'd see if anyone had any side art or CPO for TMNT for cheaper than Gameongrafix. Don't really care if it's repro or NOS. Anyone have anything?

There's someone local looking to sell a Nintendo Red Tent for $600, which I know is way out of the ballpark. I'm thinking about lowballing him to see if he'll bite, since it's been listed for quite a long time with no takers. What would be a reasonable offer? Is $200 too unreasonable? How about...

Last arcade of much significance in Connecticut bites the dust http://www.ctbulletin.com/articles/2011/08/11/news/doc4e43b983745ef253717646.txt Obviously we're not a big state, so it stands to reason that there wouldn't be much left in this day and age. Smiles was a place that wasn't great...

The saddest looking Simpsons cabinet you'll see this week So every once in a while my fiance and I go down to the last surviving roller skating rink in the area. Besides Roller Skating, the place also has a small Arcade, decent selection of games in good shape considering the place is in a...

I know it's a long shot, but I'm trying to track down these two Konami games. I see plenty of full cabinets for Bucky O'Hare for sale, but I rarely ever see just the PCB. Moo Mesa doesn't come up very often either. I'm sure someone here must have these, is anyone interested in letting them go?

http://www.lasvegasweekly.com/news/2011/jun/30/bizarre-lawsuit-has-pinball-hall-fame-playing-defe/ Didn't see this get posted anywhere else. What an asshole, the fact that morons like this guy are even given the time of day in court, let alone have a legal leg to stand on pretty much sums up...

During my usual weekly stops at the Goodwill and Thrift stores this week, I made a rather odd find, a brand new factory sealed copy of Berserk for Atari 2600. Now I typically pass on anything pre NES, but given that this was only 3 dollars, I picked it up as a conversation piece if nothing else...

Woman sues Chuck E. Cheese on allegations that they are running a gambling operation http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/05/12/san-diego-mother-sues-chuck-e-cheese-allegedly-allowing-kids-gamble/?test=latestnews It's funny how this comes up right after the discussion about games like Stacker and...

Just wondering, has anyone been to any commercial campgrounds lately? Do they still mostly have arcades? I remember my father for into a camping kick around the late 90's - early 2000's, and just about every campground we went to had an arcade full of classics in their rec room. Some places only...

Best way for the unskilled to get a recap preformed? About 9 months ago I picked up a Sunset Riders cabinet that seemed to have spent much of it's life on location outdoors in some fashion. When I first got it, it was displaying the telltale signs of the need for a recap, a wavy picture...

http://cgi.ebay.com/X-Men-Children-Atom-Arcade-Machine-/220754747221?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3366021f55 Good lord, I've seen some ugly conversions, but this one is definitely up there. What did this monstrosity used to be before it got turned into an X-Men COTA?

Ok, this might be a weird question, but what was the deal with the Winner's Don't Use Drugs screen that appeared on games around 1991-1993? As far as I've been able to find out, there was some federal mandate stating that it had to appear on all games imported during that time period, but as...
