Is that the one that tilts?

All the quarters I fed this game…

Gasped when I saw this. So. Many. Memories. And quarters.

If something breaks, how do they repair it? Do they call a special company or is it just anyone with TV skills?

I work as a tech at a retro arcade. Main issues are dirty connectors, fuses, power supplies, or capacitors. With guides out there, anyone handy can give it a go, but it does take some patience and tools.

Mainly Facebook Marketplace or other arcades nearby. Sometimes we pick up older ones that need some TLC.

Old electronics are the best. Fixable and repairable. Unlike today’s stuff, where everything’s sealed and a black box.

Manuals have all the wiring details, so repairs aren’t too bad. Some pinball repair folks do these, too.

Took so many of my quarters.

This and a Sega Rally 2 are my holy grails. Congrats!
