    Cool Goodwill Find

    My neighbor picked up a working Pheonix (in good shape) at our local Goodwill for $40. I was shocked...didn't know they'd ever have anything like that.

    Best cab for an Atari Tetris conversion?

    According to the Klax pcb schematic and manual, if you take out R102 you can then put a <100 Ohm resistor (or just a wire) at the open R105 position and shift the image to the RIGHT, or do the same at R103 to shift the image to the LEFT. But I'm guessing this shifts by a fixed amount. I have...

    Best cab for an Atari Tetris conversion?

    Here's a pic of my cab. At this point I had just finished all the woodwork and put new vinyl on the front sides, and t-molding. I have it more put together now, but will have to take some more pix. This is a Stern cab. I have no idea what game was in there before because it was thoroughly...

    Best cab for an Atari Tetris conversion?

    I am fixing up a Tetris and I also put in a double jamma switcher and a Klax board. It works great but I have one issue. I can not center both games horizontally. If I center Tetris, then Klax is just a little too far off the right of the screen, and if I center Klax, Tetris is too far left...

    6100 HV cage - "What went wrong!?!?!"

    Those pictures make me sad. Thanks for posting your troubleshooting discussion on the forum. I'm sure it will happen to someone else in the future.

    Tempest vector glitches during non-text screens

    I have had this issue go away after reseating the PCB interconnect cable, and also the incoming power edge connector.

    WTB: Full NOS Atari TETRIS art package :)

    Hey man, Game On Grafix has repro Tetris sideart, bezel, CPO and marquees if you can't find NOS. They even do custom sizes if you have a weird cab. I'm going to take measurements and place my order tomorrow! Cheers.

    What to do with Tetris?

    Yeah that shape is *very* close, but it is definitely a Stern cab, looking at the speaker placement and the coin door (these don't match the pictures of Thief that I found). Anybody have any idea of the monitor type?

    What to do with Tetris?

    Yeah, looks like it is a generic Stern cab, as I found multiple games with that big red STERN logo across the side. Definitely nothing I'd want to restore. There is nothing original left except maybe the CRT, and that has been cut out and rotated horizontal. The perfectionist in me really...

    What to do with Tetris?

    It might be Armored Car. There are some pix on the web with a giant STERN logo going down the side in RED. There are a couple of scratches on the left side paint showing red underneath the black. So unless that was a generic side art that Stern used...

    What to do with Tetris?

    And if it helps, the cabinet is 24 1/2" wide.

    What to do with Tetris?

    One more pix so you can see the orientation of the monitor.

    What to do with Tetris?

    Here are the pix...any help in ID'ing the cabinet (and Monitor too!) much appreciated. The paint job on the sides is awful, and the monitor bezel is missing, but otherwise very solid.

    What to do with Tetris?

    Will post a pic soon. The cabinet shape is like Robotron I think.

    What to do with Tetris?

    Kinda why I picked it up. For the 2 player head to head action. It's just one of those games everybody knows how to play.

    What to do with Tetris?

    At this point I'm thinking of the following: 1. I probably don't want to spend the $$ to restore the cabinet back to whatever it was before the conversion (but I will try to ID the cabinet just in case it is a hidden gem). 2. I don't want an emulated multicade. 3. So if I don't restore I...

    What to do with Tetris?

    Of course if I discover that something awesome was converted to Tetris, I might be forced to restore it. :)

    What to do with Tetris?

    Hmm KLAX is interesting, haven't played it but having another puzzle game from the same era might be cool. Or should I just slap a multi-cade in there like this? http://www.jammaboards.com/store/138-in-1-classic-horizontal-arcade-multigame-jamma-pcb.html
