Greetings everyone; After visiting a friend's home arcade a few months ago I decided to spice up the arcade in my basement, including painting the walls of the room to make it look less raunchy and cleaning up the machines themselves.
Unfortunately each machine has some kind of issue which I can't fix myself since I'm not that tech-savy of a person and the only guy I know that can help with it isn't readily available (though he is coming this week). Three of the four arcade games (Tempest, Sky Shark, and Mr. Do's Castle) have monitor issues which range from moonier to severe, the other arcade game (Assault) has a broken right joystick. Ice fever meanwhile has two broken bumpers, several burned-out lights, and a target feature that can't be hit properly due to the "goalie" blocks not retracting fully when hit, causing the pinball to shoot up instead of maintain it's movement forwards when aiming for the target behind it. The LED lights on the scoreboard are a bit screwy as well, with the second digit on the Player 1 and Player 3 scores being completely absent.
Mr. Do's Castle is the only game you see here that I'm not overly satisfied with; it's my least favorite of the collection and the Mr. Do series as a whole (not to mention I already have it in the 39-in-1 JAMMA board in my primary console game room upstairs) and I'm fully willing to trade or sell it for a better game (as I'm not too fond of the Scramble cabinet design either).
Bellow is my VAPS which should go into a bit more detail on the condition of the collection, along with the machines I'm seeking out. Being an arcade collector in the middle of Long Island does have it's flaws.

If I find myself with many games at some point; the air hockey table will be the first to go as it alone hogs up the whole right wall.
Once I get the room into a more arcade-like atmosphere and fix it up more (or if anyone wants to sell/trade), I'll consider invitations.
