Galaga Coin-Op Arcade - FREE! (san jose west)

I'm giving away this classic Galaga coin-op arcade game.

It used to work, currently does not. It powers up but the graphics look a bit wonky.

It had this problem before. Some geeky friend of mine replaced a chip in it and it worked fine for years. But alas, it has the problem again.

I have lost touch with the guy that fixed it. I have no idea what he did. I bet a nickle if you replace some chip you'll also have a working machine. You are on your own to get it working again.

You must haul away on your own. I don't have a truck or van.

If this post is still up that means it is still in my garage waiting to find a new home.

yeah man you have a good monitor, controls, semi good board why the f isnt it taken down from craigs yet? very sad.

I just brought home two more games today.. I'm out of room and already drove way to much today. Someone else go get it though....bring it to CAX for crying out loud!
 
C'mon people - this one was easy! :D It still has the Xevious front bulb panel graphics.

I might be mistaken, but can't a Galaga PCB plug into a factory Xevious harness?

you are mistaken. two completely different pinouts.

Galaga shares a pinout with Gaplus/Galaga 3, Bosconian, Mappy, and a few others. Xevious, like many Atari games of the era, is unique.
 
I was the second person to reply about half an hour after it was posted. He told me the first guy was going to get off work at 5:00 but I could have it if I beat him to the game. I could of, but told the guy I would pick it up if the first guy did not show. He said fair enough. Well he called me back and let me know the first guy got it. Hopefully it was a KLOV member.
