Finally, my Gun Fight is up and running!!
I'd like to thank Alan(Alan173) for babysitting me thru many, many checks on the power supply, boards, and monitor. Replaced one transistor on the monitor board and put in a cap kit; that took care of the monitor problems.
Jim(YodaInMn) came over tonite and actually did the work on the monitor board. Thanks Jim!! He also soldered in a broken off coin door wire and fixed the start button; so now both coin slots and the start button are good to go.
Alex Yeckley(Elektron Forge) fixed the boards. They had multiple problems.
Andre'(Rhombus) fixed and rewired the power supply; which was completely hacked up...you wouldn't even believe how bad. It was putting out over 22 volts!
Thanks again to Brian(prOk) for reproducing the "shots" decals for the bezel. No matching font was found so Brian cut them by hand....
After playing about 20 intense games with my wife I had to call it quits because she kicked my ass all over! I won maybe 4 games....how disgusting.
The last time(before tonite) that I played this game was at a KOA campground somewhere in South Dakota in 1979. Gun Fight was the only arcade game(cocktail version) in the gameroom. There was about 7 or 8 pins and a jukebox.
I'm so happy that its finally running! And its a blast to play; the sounds are really awesome, too....
Oh, and the "pardner" parody is really on the screen. When you have more than 1 credit in the game after a game is finished, it says "Hey Pardner, you have credit." Not partner....not sure if the Japanese did that on purpose or not!
