I bought this from an old operator so it's unlikely that it is the same machine as the one from ebay.

199, damn!
The table is almost fully functional. I am currently troubleshooting an annoying loud hum from the speakers. Monitor has been rebuilt, the pcb fixed and a lot of other cosmetic stuff has been done as well.

I have had the privilege to poke around (and carry around parts of) this collection of games in person. Awesome stuff!

Since I have already requested help here on the forums I guess I should at least present myself. Name is Kristofer and I am from Sweden and I know at least two other members here in person (pinge and rogerxy) as we usually go on arcade roadtrips together and used to arrange Scandinavia's biggest retrogaming convention (at most we had 4000 visitors!). I have been collecting video games since 2001/2002 something and used to focus mostly on NES and obscure console and retrocomputer stuff. I bought my first arcade cabinet back in 2008 I believe, and that was a Capcom Noname. Since then I've had a sane relationship to arcade collecting. Up until about a year ago or so when it all escalated. These are the machines that I currently have in my possession:
* Capcom Noname
* 2x Italian wall-mounted Aleph cabinets (JAMMA)
* Wall-mounted Atari Breakout in cabinet built by Cherry
* Atari Breakout cocktail table
* Atari Breakout consolette (serial number 62!)
* Pac-Man upright (serial number 932!)
* Galaxian upright
* Midway Space Invaders upright
* Kee Games Super Bug upright
* Gran Trak-20 upright (not picked up yet)
* Star Castle upright (Rock-Ola built)
* Atari Anti Aircraft upright
* Centipede cabaret
* Allied Leisure Paddle Battle
* Atari Pong (yes the original
)
* Too many arcade pcbs
I added a couple of pics here to the post, let's see if they stick Otherwise, I post updates every now and then on my instagram account (https://www.instagram.com/kristoferhanssonaspman/).
Anyway, I am trying to broaden my horizons and it feels like an arcade roadtrip to the rest of Europe will happen in a not so distant future.

The monitor of my cabinet is not working. A fuse and a couple of resistors are badly burnt. Still, it seems as if the cabinet has never been put out to operate on location. Except for the burnt parts, everything is shining as new and the coin counter is on 00089(!). Also, the serial number of the cabinet is 62.
I found the below post where someone repaired a consolette-monitor, but my french is too rusty to figure out the details. Will see what google translate has to say about it when I have time to sit down with my cabinet. http://forum.system-cfg.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=5594

Yes, hard to see but mine's a little bit different. Mine does not say Consolette on the front for instance.

Hi!
I recently acquired a Breakout consolette style cabinet and I would like to know more about it. The monitor chassis and neck pcb says "Atari Europe" and the serial sticker on the back of the cabinet says Atari Theatre. Mine does not say "Consolette" like the ones I have seen pictured here on the forums. Were these common throughout Europe? Where were they built? France?
EDIT: I guess this one looks more like mine: http://www.flyerfever.com/post/98616925348/breakout

I sent an email to the seller of the Space Attack now. I asked if he would be willing to put it on a pallet and have it shipped to Sweden. Odds are he might not be interested in that so if anyone on here lives nearby, I'd be happy to pay that someone 100 eur or something to help out in picking it up, putting it on a pallet and having it shipped to Sweden. Shoot me a pm if you can help with that
