  1. There is a support brace ill have to partially route out if i get the coin door. I bought one for the miss pac cab and there is something surreal about plinking quarters.
  2. This looks so slick though. I still wanna stick volcano buttons and a real coin door on my 1up legacy tempest
  3. The volcano buttons can be mounted on button hole plugs with a bit of dremel work. Believe me i thought this out. It still $35 for a pair of replica volcano buttons though...
  4. Most modern games apply swear filters on the player names, pretty sure all online games do.
  5. This was literally his dream home, 3 decades ago! Hold yer quarters. "Look ma, i can goes to the arcade whenever I want!" ?
  6. This. P1 initials go in the blocks. There is no swear filter. And I've since replaced the top slot...
  7. Oh, noes! Crystal Castles has a dirty word in it... How do I get this off? What's my age again? ?
  8. My home 1up arcade. Left to right ms pacman cocktail, tmnt, star wars, atari legacy tempest. That tempest legacy cab; She's a thing of beauty. Spinner and trackball respond well, and I upgraded the stock buttons. I wish they made the volcano style drop ins for p1/p2. I might even put in an X-arcade coin door like I did with ms pacman.
  9. Can I be both? OMG HELLO KITTY PACMAN! ? OMG HELLO KITTY PACMAN! ? OMG HELLO KITTY PACMAN! ? Curious how those new mazes play out. Instant buy... ?
  10. It's spent at this point. I've cried and moved on. The screen and the cabinet are gorgeous. I have already ordered the mod kit to convert it to a mame box with a highly curated set of roms. Just classic vertical 4-way games with 3 or fewer buttons. No fillers. As a bonus, I get to play all the best Nintendo, Atari, and Namco titles all in one unit. I've decided to resurrect an old dinosaur Athlon XP shuttle pc and install linux mint/mame on it. It should run a lot smoother and be easier to setup than those Pi thingies everyone raves about. I'm even building a cigar box trackball "mouse" for centipede. There is a ton of space to work with inside that cabinet.
  11. I screwed up badly. ??? My 12v supply for the led mod somehow got pinched underneath one of the button contacts and shorted out the control panel circuit board. The arcade itself is still functional but all controls are unresponsive unless I want to stare at the ms pacman attract screen. If anyone knows of someone who can offer a replacement pcb or has a pinout diagram for the ribbon header, please let me know. I also really don't like the fact there is a proprietary glop top on it, so I can't just wire the controls to the pin header.
  12. I used a router on the mdf. Wear a mask if you do it. Dang thing smoked so bad it set off the fire alarm. The cab is still full of dust...
  13. I went to the hardware store and bought castors with 3" wheels. That helps, plus I got a pacman stool coming in the mail, which will be a bit shorter than my current barstools, sans the leg extentions. My replacement buttons and coin door came in as well. Blue and cotton candy pink... ??❤ Plus there is something deeply satisfying about the cha-chink sound a quarter makes... ? 20210312_040948.mp4
