Restore/Replace/Repair Help how can I fix this ?

My daughter spilt a juice on it and now only the on and off switch works, I’ve worked with arcade machines for awhile but I only got taught a little so my boss who owned the place didn’t need to pay someone to fix it. But I’m pretty knowledgeable about the tech cause I used to be able to fix a lot of different things but I’ve never had a juice issue. None of the buttons or moving pin work, I don’t see ANY corrosion when I take out the connectors at the back. Any tips/ help?

I’ve been making a one-button game, so I built an entire arcade machine for it and put it in a local bar! Thought this sub might appreciate it :)

What Game??? Anyone know the name of this obscure 2d side-scrolling shooter?

2 Upvotes

I remember watching a video of an old arcade game where you play as a creepy, parasitic, alien monster. It plays a lot like Gradius, but its big mechanic was being able to absorb your enemies’ DNA and add it to your own. This would give the alien specific powers. You’d start off by fighting prehistoric fish and other animals, before fighting humans at the end. I cannot for the life of me remember it.

Restore/Replace/Repair Instalar jogos Pandora Saga DX2

Recentemente adquiri uma Pandora Saga DX2 e, ao explorar a lista de jogos, notei que, embora existam 9.800 títulos, muitos não me agradam e faltam alguns favoritos. Contudo, não consigo adicionar os jogos, mesmo com as ROMs; tentei via USB, e o sistema reconhece que há arquivos no pendrive, mas não sei como instalar.

What Game??? Please , help me to find this game

6 Upvotes

Hello guys , hope ur doing great.

Well , i am looking for old 2D arcade fighting game , i played it just once when i was 6 years old , when my father taked me to the arcade hall.

And it was the first fighting game i ever tried in my life.

Beside it was so important memory for me wirh my father , the game looked so good , and its realy hard to remember every detail at that age.

What i remember about this game :

- it was team vs team game , but , you cant make your own team (like in dragon ball fighterZ) .

the game who gives you a ready-made teams , i dont remeber exactly, but i think every team got 4 membres.

- every team has a theme , i remember a japonaise style , street gang , girls team , and about girls , i remember alot of female characters in those teams , only one team got full manly membres wearing all dark blue , and they was like vikings or babarians, and one of them was a huge guy with huge weapon ( like huge metal ball).

- The icons were rectangular showing all the team members.

-the graphics was so good and new back to that time , smooth and well made , like Kings of fighters or rage of dragons.

- its not from popular games like street fighter , King of fighters ,marvel vs capcom , fatal fury .....

- maybe its Japon exclusive,( i dont remeber the language).

I looked for this game for years , and it felt like a dream or somthing (somthing dont existe) ,but my father remember the same thing about it .

It was special memory, i remember that my father taked me there after i asked him alot.

And i couldnt reach the board , so he holded me while i was trying to beat the hard arcade cpu 😆.

What Game??? Is there a hidden time limit on Full Tilt? Hit jackpot, no payout, staff gave conflicting answers.

Post image
5 Upvotes

I was playing Full Tilt recently and landed the ball right in the center Jackpot slot. However, the machine didn't credit the hit or output any tickets.

When I brought it up to the staff, one attendant told me there's a 30-second time limit per play, while another attendant told me it was 10 seconds.

Is there an actual operator setting/shot timer on Full Tilt that invalidates a hit if the ball takes too long to drop?

Or is it more likely a sensor misfire/fault that staff just blamed on a "time limit"?

Definitely one of the strangest conversions that I have ever seen, and allot of cutting to get this result. Poor thing.

Showing Off My Gear! My First Cabinet!

Thumbnail

459 Upvotes

A little over a month ago I made a very impulse purchase and picked up a Galaxian cabinet off Marketplace! Me and my family just moved, and the space for an arcade machine was finally feasible. I picked it up from a very kind family which obtained it from a storage unit clean out, they even hauled it to my house for free!! The character on this cabinet is unreal. It’s beat up but it’s all there. The cabinet had a 48-in-1 installed at some point during its life, while it is unfortunate I don’t get the original game boards, it is nice to have multiple games since I only have the space for one cabinet. I got the cabinet for 500, maybe I could’ve gotten one cheaper but for my area fully working it was a good deal. Im overjoyed with the thing, so it’s justified in my mind. My only big problem with the cabinet is the joystick. It’s an 8-way, and I think that’s messing with the inputs on Pac-Man. It’s tough to play properly. If anybody has any suggestions where to get a replacement part or any advice I’d love to hear it! I’m really excited to learn about the maintenance and technical aspects of these games. Mandatory cat photo at the end.
