Well, all of this seems like pretty good (albeit costly) news. And thanks for the rep! I appreciate it! Sounds like I need to talk to Arc.

. Could you explain this like I'm five? What is a cold solder joint? How do I figure this out? Thanks for your time!

I'm not sure. What is this safety/interlock switch of which you speak? Is that the thing where if you pull it all the way out or something that the game totally shuts off? That thing seems to be in the right position, as I moved it once and all the lights went off. Figured that was wrong, so...

Yeah, no kidding. Yes. How can I tell this? I have the set-up/maintenance manual for the game. When I hit start or when I flip that little flippy thing on the coin slot, nothing happens. I hear nothing. I guess that would mean does the neck of the monitor light up when I turn the...

I bought a Battlezone machine about a month ago. The guy I bought it from said that it just needed a PCB auxiliary board. OK, so I got one of those from Bill on these forums. I put that in and hooked it up. Now when I turn on the machine, the monitor doesn't come on. The marquee lights up...

How has no one mentioned Twilight Zone yet?! Twilight Zone and Addams Family are definitely on my list. Whirlwind would probably make an appearance. Not sure about the other two. I'll get back to you.

If I was closer, I would SO take this off your hands for you. Looks great!

Thanks! And I think that females are missing out on a great thing! I keep trying to get them to come over to the dark side, but the majority of them want nothing to do with it (for more than five minutes, at least). =)

Story of my life. =/ Seriously though, I hope you can fix it. Good luck!

Why are they called candy cabs? I never got that.

That's how I ended up building the desk and some other things. I kind of just figured it out as I went along and it all ended up working out. Now I really want to give this cab thing a shot! Thanks for that! =)

It is now definitely on my list of things that I want to do. I have zero experience with any sort of restoration or building from scratch, but I think it would be awesome to learn how to do those things one day.

Hi. Thanks! The pile of wood was the makings of a desk for the study in my parents' house. I think it was maple. I'm not really much of a woodworker or anything like that, but I can build things. Why I've never thought of building a cab before now is completely perplexing to me. =)

Hi. I'm new here too and I just got myself a Battlezone a couple of weeks ago! All mine needed was an auxiliary board. Fortunately, I found one here and it should be arriving any day now! And yes, it's totally "normal" to look at all of those Craiglist locations. I drove for three hours...

Here are some pictures of my stuff. In the one picture, the Gauntlet and the Meta Fox are my cousins. I was just keeping them at my house until Christmas Eve one year so that he could surprise his kids with them. I'd really like to get the Gauntlet from him one of these days. The Battlezone...

Thank you! I've never listed any of my games for sale on CL. I just buy them. Though I am thinking of selling my Zaxxon. The other three are keepers for me. They give me great pleasure and I have awesome memories of playing them in arcades when I was younger.

That is totally awesome! Yeah, keep her around for a while. At least until you're done restoring games. =)

I swear, I'm all chick! =) Having a supportive wife who doesn't play (eg or give a fat rat's ass about video games at all) is absolutely awesome. You've got yourself a keeper!

I'm doing my best to spread the word! It's so much fun. They have no idea what they're missing!

See, that's what I think! I think you guys are extremely cool for being into this sort of thing. I don't get why more women aren't into it. When I was helping set up on Thursday before CAX, the guy I was helping with his machines said that he had twenty of them. I was amazed. I asked if he...
