Happy new 2021.
Let's hope it's better than the tragic one that just passed.
... I hope that, as usual, we will start with Paul's ZZZ recap of the past year... it would already be a good start for all of us

Artwork / Re: Zaccaria Scramble artwork needed for restoration
« on: September 21, 2019, 09:59:41 AM »
If you use the cab in pic (Vanguard design) to make a Scramble ZZZ beware: the cab's shape is not the same.
Scramble haven't curved shape on top.
Recover original side art with a (different game) repro it's a pitty...and not a good result I think..
The "blu Vanguard style" (..love it and very rare red version olso..) usually was a Super Cobra..

Sorry for delay... slowly I have found same parts.
Now I'm looking for inside parts. If I found the PCB, i think I'm on the right way to close this cab...

Hi DLF friends!
I'm looking for a Super Galaxian PCB for complete my Zacc cab ( https://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=7371.0 )
I have some other Zaccaria stuff (Marquee or bezel mainly..) to exchange for that board.
Thanks for help me...

Thx Bela.
I'll note the what you tell me, about PCB (it's working? anthing it's ok?)...
..
inside I have the old withe connector to plug it no more, and the supply lacks too...
..my first problem is to found the marquee... if not, this will be a mission impossible for me

Arcade Lifestyle / Zaccaria Galaxia found in Italy
« on: November 02, 2017, 09:25:05 PM »
I have few time for the hobby in this part of my life... but I'll working about.
..to the worst case it will be the activity of my retirement life.. if I'll never reach it ..
Anyway: I have found this cab two summers ago, collaterally to another Cab catch in North Est of Italy...
..so I decide to pick also this one.
The Cab it's, like long Italian tradition, "jammized" inside... no CPO, inside a (ugly) 17" color monitor, no Zaccaria power supply and the transformer looks no genuine as well.
..in few words: nothing genuine inside it...
Externally the Cab it's in a decent shap, after all (..for a comparison with others cabs in Italy..).
..the CPO it's possible to repro by Paul's scanner acquisition, but to find the Marquee will be very difficult...

Restarting, with the cards you have in hand, is a courageous choice.
Turning it into a new work, even more..
It might be a "dream work" as Bela says.....or a terrible nightmare like Luigi said.
The hobby could not be a source of relaxation in everyday life, but a daily source of stress at the rhythm of the motto "time is money"...
I do not know what you did before the last 12 years ago, but I can tell you that the Italian bureaucracy kills 2 times the self employed: sometime I often envy the employees of large companies ..
..for to widen the business, you should also consider non-corporate events..
.. the most popular games, of course are the most required by profanes ..
.. if you want I alert you if I sight a Space Invaders (Italian Model Racing probably..)
Good luck.
