I have an original Punch Out in a great condition cabinet. I am attempting to restore this unit.
The upper monitor has bad burn in as the image NEVER really changes on the top monitor that displays score, life meter and opponent etc......
The lower monitor where the game is played has started GHOSTING and blurring some images.
I don't assume I would get lucky and this could just be a cap-kit replacement?
The game itself plays very well. Audio is crisp as you could ever want for a 25 year old machine. My issue is monitor related. I have been told that Punch Out monitors were special in the sense that you could NOT just use another monitor from a DIFFERENT GAME? A lot of the early generation monitors were swappable just like old chevy parts.
I would really like to avoid having to use an adapter in turn replacing my monitors with standard TV's as it is JUST NOT The same Hi. res.
any suggestions?
