...and it's been converted... I can't believe it. I normally don't complain about games being bastardized, but I have my limits... this is a damn shame. What's worse is that apparently this has happened to a bunch of these cabinets!

I found the ill fated Galaxian 3 in the back corner of the Islandia Dave & Buster's on Long Island. It's been converted to Air Raid... which sucks. It's fun for a little while, then gets old REAL fast. It was originally an Attack of the Zolgear, and the the front marquee and stickers are still there, but being covered by military camouflage. It could be possible that the boards are still lurking the back, but I doubt it. The projectors have been replaced as well.

Nick from Arcade Hunters beat me to it and shot this video of the exact machine I found. I want to save this thing and restore it to what it should be, but that's just a distant daydream for now.
