I can only stand outside this thread looking shiftly in a brown trenchcoat for so long

Not sure if anyone has a Japanese cabinet with a missing ashtray arm thingy, but there's a dude over on AO putting together repros for 20 quid each and they look pretty good. (I've been on the lookout for one now for years)

Those black ones that were on hinges, its like every cabinet in the country had them dangling off the sides. Even quirkeys had them, but I never remember anyone smoking in there. Barneys was a different story!

Distinctly remember one of the lost world guns having a cigarette hole burned right through the casing, you could only do that by hoofing a smoke and sticking it there over and over and over!

I don't care for candy cabs but I have to admit that cab looks cooooool af Jack Burton

Is it a JVS to Jamma? If so the coin mech wont work, well doesnt on my NNC

I think i have a maplins stepdown somewhere , weighs a tonne.

That's the exact reason I'm trying to get a Namco board for it!

I need a full new set of locks for my Cyber Lead.

Anyone be able to recommend me someplace to buy a set? New or used doesn't really matter to me.

I was thinking of getting a few of these type of locks

If they fit. I'll have to measure up tonight

My nephew and niece was up tonight and wanted to try out the arcade1up.
Don't have the 2nd player joystick installed yet so they took turns.

Threw on metal slug for my niece and she said it was better than Roblox or any PS4 game! She's about 13 years old.
My nephew who's about 6 got distracted by all the synthesizers keyboards so was having a little rave for himself instead of playing the arcade! :pac:

Just great to see the younger generation enjoying the action and addictiveness of arcade games, they were something special.

So my airlink stepdown the cyberlead finally arrived, plugged it in and nothing....****.

According to the plate on the cab it needs 100v and 97W. The airlink stepdown gives 100V and 100W so should have been perfect. Talked to O1s1n and reckoned the power from the wall was a bit weak so it's not getting enough juice. The AO wiki lists the machine as 120W as well so that could have been it too.

This morning I got the same converter I used for my blast city for years. 110V and 350W. Should be more than enough to run it and still inside the allowence to not blow up the cab.....still dead

Had a quick check inside and seen this crispy joy

I've emailed Ronnie about it, I didn't have much time to really check everything out between work and stuff. Next step is to check out all the fuses.

Needless to say, so far, there's nothing sweet about this candy

So I plugged the cab into our Irish mains.... nothing. Checked the fuses and it blew a 4A fuse, I thought could have been an issue from being underpowered with 110 so tried a new one. Blew the **** out of it instantly.

So something is rotten in the state of Denmark
