I seen an ad on craigslist for a Super Mario for free that did not work and figure what the heck I see if he still has it and pick it up. He gave me another monitor with screen burn and missing I think the amp board and another power supply with it also. Condition of the game was not to bad, missing one of the wood board that sits on the ground and another one was off. Coin door bad shape with nothing on it except a front of the coin mech. Also the harness was not hacked up but they replaced the light fixture with 2 light sockets with 15 watt bulbs which of course was burned out or the fixtures are bad. I plug her in and it look like it was resetting ( like my old nes if it was dirty) and the monitor is way out of adjustments. So I pulled the board out and made sure it was all there and notice one of the chips had skate kids printed on it and the main chip was Super Mario. Came back inside and looked about info about skate kids and it is a mod alt graphic hack for mario. So I reseated the chips and surprise it actually booted up. Still playing around with the monitor but when it first starts up the top inch or so has lines through it and is smashed together. After playing around it a little today and actually played it for a while the top of screen actually straighten up some. Figure it may need a cap kit. I figure this was not a bad deal for free with it working at least after reseating the chips. Now to just get the regular chips for it.
