Millipede / centipede game play speeds up and slows down Machine is very clean, bone stock beyond a K7000 and multi-pede kit I installed. Original AR, heck it's got original fuses in it. Big blue is original, have a new one, haven't put it in yet. So far power checks out everywhere I've...

Doing a PITA broken focus pin repair on an RCA tube on my D9200. the neckboard on this chassis is massive, what do you guys recommend as far as glue or adhesive for helping to secure the neckboard to the tube? On all my other displays I don't use any, but most of them are old WGs with small...

Hey dudes, Was in a hurry on a cap job and put c40 in backwards on a k7000. Check r91, d13 and r101. Mine were toasted, r101 was within spec but the pad on the PCB was smoked. Just passing on the info in case anyone else makes the same mistake. :)

What is everyone using these days for replacing the POTs on a K4900 ? I have a couple chassis and know I need to replace a few pots on at least one of them. Was just curious what everyone feels is the best replacement out there?

Inspired by the bad luck thread, I decided to start a good luck thread. My good luck stories have far outnumbered my bad luck ones thankfully. One that really sticks out in my mind was a pin pickup. Saw an ad for a Bally Fireball Classic pinball for $100. Machine was complete but did not...

Got a call from a friend of mine who lives about 260 miles away. Information was a bit sketchy, he has a neighbor who has some arcades that he has to get rid of ASAP. About the only thing he knew was that one game was called 'Joust' and he thought there might be a 'Pacman'. I say 'I'm...

Arcades in Saint Louis MO ?? I'm heading to Saint Louis for 2 weeks due to work and will naturally need access to an arcade to keep my sanity! Does anyone know of any good arcades in Saint Louis, or facilities that have arcades and pinballs? I found some place called Demolition Ball on the...

Was visiting family and the conversation turned to video games. Father in Law mentioned he saw a Pacman a few blocks away on the side of a house. We drover over there and it was still there, complete I might add. I talked to the owner and he said he just wanted it out of there but I paid the guy...

The thread about bad experiences was the inspiration for this post. What are everyone's best arcade memories? Mine would have to be dropping acid every weekend for about 6 months straight and playing "Alien Vs. Predator" at the local arcade with my friend until after our high would peak. I...

I'm normally an arcade guy but this thing was just too awesome to pass up and the price was smokin' Found a Bally Fireball Classic. Original owner's daughter. It was about 2 miles from my house. Now I gotta get it running, its been in a garage for 3 years and lights up, but the LEDs and...

I've got a Hantarex 19inch MTC900 CRT in a cab that is running MAME. The horizontal width coil is shot. It hasn't been that big of a deal as I have configured AdvanceMame to output a signal which compensates for the width issue. Works great actually but at some point I'm going to want to replace...

I think we all know the answer... the seller is smokin' crack. I thought about emailing him and asking him if it was a typo? In reality he means $18.00 or possibly 180.00... not 1800.00! http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/vgm/1431545404.html

Buddy of mine bought a Tekken 4 machine recently, machine is in great shape but was in the home of a smoker and the cab smells like an ash tray. We were almost thinking some febreeze and re-painting the exterior. Anyone dealt with removing the ash tray smell from a cab?

I've been a long time arcade player. Loved a multitude of games growing up in the 80s and 90s. How in the hell I never found these forums before is beyond me. I guess because the primary game machine I've owned for years never broke down and I never thought of messing with it (if it ain't...
