Happy new year to all of you  :-*

I miss the 'golden years' of arcade collecting, the road trips, the arcade meetings, the dramas about emulation/original stuff  ;D , all the WIP on some fabulous cabinets,  ...well I miss a lot of you guys
Now the world goes crazy...who know how long and what's coming next...
Whatever, enjoy live!  :)

Galaxian Theater / Shooting Simulater 6! No Galaxian³?
« on: November 05, 2020, 05:55:47 PM »
I've just found this one on the web I've never seen before.
Interesting fact, there's no mention at all about 'Galaxian³' ... just "shooting simulater6"
One of the earliest made to announce the game to come? Anyway, here it is ->

Galaxian Theater / Enhancing PS1 games with A.I. GALAXIAN3
« on: September 08, 2019, 12:47:16 PM »
Have a look at this video :

He use a technique to enhance the original (low quality) video on the PS1 version of the game. The result is really impressive!
Too bad that video cannot be re-used in the game. Let's hope this can be done in the future...

I'm selling my working Dragon's Lair II board. This board could be also used for Space Ace 91 with appropriate roms.
Still protected since my last test (few years l8ter). It was my spare one but never had to use it, and I do not have a DL2 cab' anymore...

Dragon's Lair / Space Ace / [COSPLAY] New Kimberly are in da place ^^
« on: November 04, 2017, 08:58:45 AM »
Kimberly, the "Princess to rescue from Space Ace" so to speak...is unfortunately not a mainstream character to the public, not as much as the lovely true Princess Daphne from Dragon's lair. For that reason none or very less cosplayers are interested in this character...  :-\
however, some girls tried to put themselves in the shoes of the sexy/funky/disco lady.
I remember the very first Kimberly cosplay I've seen... click the picture below  :arrow:



Now just found two other girls who have taken the plunge too  :arrow:

Galaxian Theater / Darth Nuno's Galaxian³ *repair Log*
« on: July 10, 2017, 07:36:13 PM »
For archives, I'll describe here some majors issues I got on my Galaxian Theater.


AUGUST 2015 : No more boot!

At power on, the boards inside the PCB rack 2 don't boot... no led... no activity... nothing  :arrow:



Note that all the boards from rack 1 are on, and there's power on rack 3 (LD/Amps).

The +5V to feed theses boards are coming from this industrial power supply, over the huge red/black wires :



...and that power supply doesn't provide the 5V anymore : no tension at all. That iS the problem!

Let's remove it :



Of course, this precise power supply model is no more available. But I luckily found one, second hand, in China (very expensive  :?):



...same reference ... (old vs 'almost' new)  :arrow:



Let's test it before firing up the theater... yeah!  :-*  :arrow:



Now let's hook it up to the theater...



...and let's go for a first test... yeah... the boards are now powered  :arrow:





Yes!  :-*
