You'll be able to follow the bouncing ball with Ron.

That's very cool!! Do you remember what machines were the top earners for your business, back in the day? 💰😊

Thank you Kent we appreciate you watching as always man! BTW I always think the background of your avatar is the state of texas, lol

IDC, the connector that says "I Don't Care"

Thank you Lab Nine, if you ever make it back to town stop by and check us out!

@@LyonsArcade I will!!!

HA! It is pretty much the exact same thing! 😄

Thank you for watching Martin, we don't have the manpower to use a nicer camera or more lighting, it's very hard for 2 of us to put out three videos a week as it is, a nicer camera means bigger file sizes which means more editing time, more uploading time, etc. Just not possible, sorry.

@@LyonsArcade I understand, please consider getting a portable studio light with a stand, I noticed that the quality is a lot better when you record something with more light, just to make things pop a little more. I record a lot of videos with a smartphone and using a good light changes the quality a lot.

I've often wondered the same, especially at a place called "Funspot" @ Weirs Beach in New Hampshire. The largest arcade in the US (maybe even the world). Place is absolute heaven. Next time I go I'll have to take a look at the service drop from the street or ask the manager for a tour of the electrical room.

We actually don't have too impressive of a system, but we upgraded a bit when we moved in. The front left wall has it's own 20amp circuit, the front right wall has it's own, and the back has 3 circuits on one side and one on the other. So we have everything plugged into 6 circuits, but we usually don't have everything on either. The most we ever have up and running at once is about 50 games.... Some of them though only draw an amp or so, the pinball machines draw 3 amps or so usually. There was a big thread on pinside awhile back where the pinball hall of fame was doing pictures and stuff of the build of the new building, and they showed the huge power setup they need to run all those machines. Pretty wild!

There's several things it could be, ripple or bad connections on the power supply or the power supply connection on the MPU, bad sockets on the MPU, or a bad 'interconnect' board between the MPU and the Driver board, that would be what I would look at first. I've also seen bad roms that after they heat up they start being problematic.

@@LyonsArcade thank you for the reply! Same person here, just a diff channel (am on my phone now) :) Among the things I’ve tried are: -recapping the power supply and MPU -re-pinning (M and F) several connectors, including the ones that deliver/receive power (though they’ve always tested out w/ good voltages, as far as I can tell) -replaced U18 w/ 6116 NVRAM -tested voltages at several of the other chips and they seem good, too -believe I’ve check the transistors and those have seemed consistent, as well -replaced fuses, though they haven’t blown since I fixed a stuck pop bumper switch when I first got the destroyed game in I’ve wondered if there might be issues with other ROMs, but I’m not sure how to test them beyond voltage expectations. I bought a logic probe, but am not sure how to use it to test those or if it’d be helpful here :/ I’d really prefer to find and fix the problem(s) on these original boards, rather than shelling out $500 to try a new MPU when I don’t even know if it’d work! I’m wondering if it comes down to various chips that might need replacing, and there are definitely a couple that get insanely hot to the touch pretty quickly, I just don’t know how to test them and I haven’t got a means of burning ROMs. Maybe a good next step (ideally after testing, rather than shotgunning?) is trying to hunt down replacement chips for all the sockets and see if it helps?

Nope :)

yes unfortunately he has chosen to sell the business, we've been using our buddy Riptor at www.TwistyWristArcade.com for many years now too, so we're pointing people that way when we can (this video was filmed awhile back)

The sound board works separate from the main board so it can be bad and the game still work.... it's the same as a Black Knight, we work on one in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/as5-o7lymtWUhaM.html

On this particular one I believe someone has added blinking bulbs, it was pretty common on EM's so a lot of people put them on Solid States in certain places too. Thank you for watching Mariano!

Your batteries are probably dead in the backbox, open it up and replace the batteries. If there is a bunch of acid damage you may have other problems but hopefully not.

The code is bad

I hear him say it like that all of the time, but I never got the inside joke as to why he does.

@@ChadAmI80 because alot of people get offended at that term..they say..."Oh it's UF, not Microfarad" so he sticks it to those people by saying Microfarad or Microfarads lol

@@naytch2003 Gotcha! Thanks for clearing that up :-)

@@ChadAmI80 Sweet as:)

If your going to do something, do it right or don't do it at all.

@@viscountalpha I agree. Drives me nuts how many people just say F it and don't fix the knocker. I understand free play and all, but it's part of the machine and often doesn't take much to troubleshoot.

Knockers are awesome people come on now 🤣

@@naytch2003 I lobbed that one across the plate. Glad you swung! LOL

@@irieman442 Oh hell yeah..I swung for the fences lol 😂
