my arcade is possessed: Sega Top Skater green convergence tweaking
so in the midst of every other friggin game hard drive, monitor or power supply crapping out, our Top Skater's convergence was all SCREWED out of nowhere.
it's a 50" Hitachi rear-projection, and all the buttons are in Japanese on the remote.
from what I can tell, the red and blue are fine, it's just the green is wavy, bowed, haywire, tweaking out, etc.
anyone have experience with fixing these? I read a few times that there's some ICs or transistors that control the convergence, and they fail, and I think there's no replacements available or something.
in other news though, the top of my PlayChoice-10's lower monitor isn't crunched anymore. I swear this place has dirty power!
