Technical Area / Re: Work In Progress - Show Us What You are Working On
« on: June 14, 2017, 12:59:38 PM »
Currently working on the Walls Down cabinet (Atari Breakout clone) and making some great progress.
Did some rewiring work on the harness & front panel and got the PCB to spit out a decent video signal!
All that needs to be done is remove the jitter from the pedal (probably a voltage issue) & running into some bad luck in regards to
monitors. Can't seem to find a CRT that's the correct size and reasonably close so I can pick it up
Overall I am not spending as much time as I would like on arcade repairs the last few weeks due to the company where I work at moving locations.
But! Here is a picture of a project we are working on, as its semi/kinda/somehow/a bit related? (It's a tractor simulator to teach students how to behave in traffic).

« on: April 10, 2017, 10:34:53 AM »I am also very curious to the new one in Groningen, It's Playtime. Anyone already been there?
I've been there. Alot of semi modern cabs and redemption games.
Furthermore: http://www.rtvnoord.nl/nieuws/172863/Inval-bij-speelhal-It-s-Playtime (news article in Dutch about tax authorities raiding the place)
I doubt the place is still opened. I'll check it out when I visit Groningen again.

This might actually help me out as I have a broken clone of this board laying around.
Thank you so much for sharing!

All the rest / Re: What is your second most favorite arcade game?
« on: January 20, 2017, 12:26:16 PM »
I'd say currently that my second favorite (to play) would be Scramble,
although I must add that my "top lists" tend to change quite alot

That was beautiful!
Heiko did wonderfully on these videos.
I think he captured the essence of the Eurocade(s) quite well.

Thank you all for a great weekend.
We had a blast at the Eurocade. Wonderfull cabinets, great food/drinks and even greater people.
Already looking forward to seeing all you guys again.
And on a sidenote I'm still getting nightmares about that hailstorm of barrels in that custom Donkey Kong...
Oh, I also did a walk-around again of the arcade floor.

Once more, thank you all!

I'll head over after dinner. So i'll probably be there at around 19:00 or 19:30 or something.
We won't spend the night there. Just drop off the cabinet. We will spend tomorrow night at Olderburg however.
Looking forward to seeing all you guys again!
