my next restoration(s) - what'll it be???

[Superully]

Ully, what about your Joust 2? Are you waiting for Andrè to work on the board? Have you reinstalled the electrical parts? Your vacations could be perfect to go on also with this proj, aren't they? 

joust 2 is almost done, all the electrical parts are in there, but the power supply is shot (led1 is out). i was told i could either rebuild the original power supply or - what's obviously better - replace it with a switcher. with the help of colin (thx man), i've ordered two williams power supply replacement kits for both my moon patrol and the joust 2. they are on their way from belgium to germany as we speak, so by the end of the week i should know whether the boards are working or not. thx for asking, i'll keep you posted!

to all of you who have voted for my next restoration projects, THX A LOT! the results are in and the tribe has spoken



the games YOU have decided to get the Superully Treatment are (thankfully) exactly the games I was gunning / hoping for:

- Moon Patrol
- Jungle King
- Domino Man

it's going to take a while before the restorations threads will pop up, but rest assured: the restorations are on their way ...

YESSSS ! My top 2/3

[Superully]

alright guys, time to dig out an old topic of mine (hopefully not too old to get your attention). with moon patrol finished, jungle king waiting to be wired in the christmas holidays and frogger being in its final stages i have space for probably one more game up here, so please help me decide which one it should be and which one you'd like to see (i'll give you some options). there are games i could finish within a day (like klax) or a week max (like galaga), but i'd prefer one which might take a little while longer to keep me occupied

so here are the candidates (if anything else comes to your mind, feel free to post it):

- death race
- championship sprint
- a nintendo game (junior, 3 or mario bros widebody)
- domino man
- zookeeper
- rampage
- a b/w game (night driver, gun fight, sea wolf, ...)

the most complicated out of those games would definitely be death race!

So deathrace it is

Domino Man!!!!!

Of course Death Race !!!!

LOVED playing it again at Funspot after 30 years. One of the very first I played. My bro loved the theme, it was very radical BITD. Besides its a unique cab shape and the artwork is fabulous. And its a BW

+1 for Death Race.

[Superully]

No and it makes the whole point of this thread useless.

You're just to scared to start on that Death Race, aren't you Ully ? It's too big a challenge even for you, right ?

every single time we carry a game up into my apartment patrik asks me "when are you going to do THE GHOST?" (referring to death race). fact is: i have all the parts i need here (along with a nice surprise), so i guess death race is going to be the next candidate ! there's only one thing that could stop me: the cabinet's size: it is oddly shaped and i'm not 100% positive it will fit through the stairwell. i will have to do some measuring first befire we get stuck in the middle ...

[level42]

Indeed it is oddly shaped !

Glad my little teasing seems to work

Death Race is so......essential. So basic. And so f-ing rare over here ! Get it ready for Eurocade 201x
