My dream, your nightmare
X-Men vs Street Fighter Volume
Well, I'd like to start with thanking the mods for accepting me. I've been a long time collector of console systems having 95% of consoles since the Atari (multiple models) all the way up to all the next gen systems, but I finally got the room and the income to start collecting arcade systems, and I want to start working on them as well so I have something to teach my 3 year old as he grows, and he has the same passion for video games I do even though I try to make sure he does more outside than I did
.
Well enough about me, so my first purchase was here locally I purchased World Class Bowling, X-Men vs Street Fighter, and Soul Calibur. All were supposed to be in great working condition except Soul Calibur needed a power supply. Knowing enough to know that if that was all that was wrong with it it'd be a cheap fix for a nice game with the art work in amazing shape I bit the bullet and paid a little more than I wanted to at $600.00 (these would not have been my first choice in games but live in the middle of no where) and scooped up the lot, but once I got the games home there was an issue with X-Men vs Street Fighter.
The volume was so loud my neighbors 300 yards away could hear it lol. I opened it up it has the test button, the free play button and what looks like it would be a volume knob. I twisted it and it wouldn't turn the game down at all. So I went into test mode and went to where the volume was and it says its at 39 (less than half way) and I can adjust it at all. I turned the sound off but that only works until you start playing or drop a quarter.
Any suggestions on what to try next? I've looked up countless pages on google, as well as downloaded the user manual and so far nothing helpful. I've always been able to fix all consoles but this is a new area for me and dont know where to start so any help would be appreciated, and I'm sure I'll have many more questions as I learn and go. Thanks for your patience and understand in advance, and sorry for the drawn out message.
(Also in the 4 player world class bowling is there any golf/bowling combo game that I could swap it out so I could play both without adding a new machine?)
