Hello all,
I am going to check out a Chicago gaming arcade legends that is non working. Ive looked around for restoration videos and threads to no avail. Some upgrade kits though. Are these worth restoring? Do i need a specific pc? Can i buy upgrades at this point? Thanks!IMG_2460.jpeg
 
Great multi.
Usually just a dead cmos battery.
Follow instructions on how to change coma coin cell and reset cmos to correct settings and youre all set.

If you can get it cheap, it's worth it for sure IMO
Thanks. I played one of these at a company i worked at. Just concerned it will be a money pit. Guy has it listed for $200

$200 is chump change. There is $200 in parts there.

EDIT: $50 is chump change. There is still more than $200 in parts there.

I'd go with an ARpiCADE personally...

Yes $50 was a great deal for whats stillin in the cab and the cab itself. Im thinking of going with a pc like original as im short on time these days and plug and play is attractive lol. I will definately check out ARpiCADE which might be just about tje same thing. Thanks!
