Latest update. I finished running an extension cord and balanced the games between the gameroom power and my office. I was bale to power everything up last night without blowing any circuit breakers!
Because I can't get a picture that does the setup justice, I have the layout below. Sorry if it is not very readable, I had to squash it down to make the size limits
At some point I will move the StarWars Pachinko machine over with the rest of them and add a couple of pins next to the Mata Hari.
I was going to try post some pics from last night with just the cabinet lights, but I think I need to pull the tripod out as they came out real blurry.

Archway open to below?!? Second floor arcade?! Wow, I am in the basement.

Yep. I ended up repairing the power supply to get it working. It had a nickel welded across the input lugs on the transformer. I ended up selling it to pay for the Joust Cocktail project that is still sitting in my garage.

In this part of Texas, the basements are on the second floor. If it was in the ground, it would be an indoor pool in no time.

Aww shucks. Would have been cool to know one of my old games ended up in such a classy collection.
Oh well, the cabinet needed a fair amount of TLC, can't blame you. Besides I guess technically it is not a Williams game anyways, just a Irem-licensed game in a sweet Williams cabinet (sorta like Atari/Namco with Assault ... funny how my fav Atari title wasn't designed by Atari and my favorite Williams title wasn't designed by Williams ).

Looks awesome! The only thing I can think of to add to that game room is more williams! Dump that black widow and get a blaster in there, maybe a defender instead of pachinkos. Yes, i can picture it clearly. MORE WILLIAMS!!!
