Hello from West Michigan

[Now get brutal]

Good morning!

Thanks for the add!

Ever since I was a kid, I was enthralled by arcade machines and someday I always wanted to own at least one. The question what one(s)?

Well, last week I was able to pickup a Big Buck Hunter Pro from an arcade closing in a neighboring city. It needed work, but the price was right. This being my first unit, I am new to all of it, but am quickly working to understand how to replace parts, trace wires and now understanding computer basics. I need to replace the computer and am hoping this community can help me understand and tackle this project. I'm excited to be here and learn a few new things!

Nope. Most of the cool people are completely out of space at this point.
Or they soon will be!

I am also from west michigan hastings area, sounds like your on the right track, older computers are really fun to get working, not really I have a terminator salvation delux I am currently replacing bad memory, bad graphics causing power issues but making progress, good luck on your project.

Welcome to the addiction. You will find no help in owning just one here. I think it is actually impossible. Remember when Lays said "No one can eat just eat one"? Well..... same thing. Arcade Games "No one can own just one".

Enjoy!
