UPDATE: 02-15-2010
Got the replacement 74LS399 from Craig(aka bit_slicer) for the Battlezone PCB and it's now back up and running. Thanks again Craig!!!
UPDATE: 02-12-2010
Worked on the Mario Bros. monitor a few days ago and needed to order a couple NTE198 neck board transistors. They arrived and the monitor now has a beautiful picture. Even though there's a way to go on this project, we just had to add a Mario Bros. page to the site.
UPDATE: 02-07-2010
So far we have only received the sideart for the DKII project... seems like this is going to be one of those sit and wait deals...

So, instead of just sitting around looking at a sad Nintendo cabinet... we ended up buying a Mario Brothers kit from Barry (aka shilmover) over at the KLOV forums.

The kit arrived and it was in decent shape for the price we paid. I've been working the Plexiglas with some Novus#2 to work out the scratches and stains and it's coming along nicely. I still have to rewire the cabinet and get the monitor working but this project is progressing nicely. I'll get some pictures up shortly.
UPDATE: 01-25-2010
Still waiting on parts for the Dr. Mario-->Donkey Kong II conversion but I did add the Tempest, Battlezone, and Armor Attack pages. Enjoy!
UPDATE: 01-18-2010
After playing Dr. Mario for about a week we decided NOT to keep it. Then my son said something wonderful... "Dad, why don't you turn it into a Donkey Kong II?" So, that's what we are doing. Ordered the DKII artwork package, a DK PCB, a couple DK harnesses, and a DK control panel. This is quickly turning into our most expensive game btw!!!
UPDATE: 01-06-2010
Picked up the first game of 2010... a Nintendo Dr. Mario. Not sure if we're keeping it or passing it on to a fellow collector yet. The wifey and son "kinda" like it.

Also noticed I didn't update the site a few months ago when we picked up an Armor Attack and Star Castle. The Star Castle is no longer with us but the Armor Attack will be getting a page here since it's a keeper. We also have to make pages for the full-size Battlezone and Tempest we picked up.
UPDATE: 12-18-2009
Just wanted to say we are still alive and well! For the months of October thru December another hobby takes over my soul so updates here grind to a halt. That hobby? Christmas lights of course!!! Here's the website: MaineLights.org
UPDATE: 09-18-2009
The Millipede is sold and being picked up tonight. The two surprises that were supposed to be here last weekend haven't arrived yet because we happened upon some FREE stuff... see for yourself... picture 1, picture 2, and picture 3.

Needless to say the arcade has run out of room.

And still... there are two more surprises coming so it should be an intersting weekend.
UPDATE: 09-08-2009
Wow... the past couple weeks have been a blur. The "surprise" was a full-sized Tempest and was picked up a couple weekends ago. It was complete, but in non-working condition. It's still non-working but it's not because I haven't been trying. The main PCB is putting up a fight and I hate to admit it, winning as of right now.

The Battlezone on the other hand is now back to a functioning state. It's fully playable but the joysticks need to both be rebuilt... which I will get to soon.

Next weekend there are a couple more surprises coming... and we are also selling the Millipede for $300. Email me if you're interested.
UPDATE: 08-29-2009
Added the page for the game we picked up last weekend... the game... a Battlezone cabaret

And it looks like tomorrow is the day for the "surprise" game.
UPDATE: 08-28-2009
Picked up another cabaret last Saturday which just happens to also be a vector game. I'll add the page this weekend.

I am also going to be picking up another game in the next few days... this one is a complete surprise to the wifey and kids. One hint I'll give is "it's the same... only bigger!".
UPDATE: 08-02-2009
Thanks to my wife and son playing Tempest at Videotopia, we made a new addition yesterday... CLICK HERE to see just what we added.
UPDATE: 07-29-2009
Uploaded a bunch of videos from our trip to Videotopia to YouTube.com... click HERE to see them.

Also started working on the Centipede page. There are still some broken pictures but everything should be finished in a day or two so check back then.
UPDATE: 07-24-2009
Made a trip to Rochester, NY to visit the Strong National Museum of Play! Besides being an incredible museum, Videotopia is there this year until November 1st.

UPDATE: 07-15-2009
Jumped on a Centipede that was posted on Craigslist down in Quakertown, PA thanks to a post over at the KLOV forums yesterday. The drive was supposed to be about 2-1/2 hours but turned into 3-1/2 hours thanks to a broken down rig in the Lehigh Tunnel. I did get to chat with a truck driver I was parked next to for about 30 minutes or so and it's amazing how much you can have in common with people you don't even know... made the delay actually enjoyable.

$75 was all the Centipede cost and with good reason. It is probably the dirtiest game I have ever bought. Someone painted the outside of the cabinet with house paint and a brush... there was a resistor duct taped to the ARII board... there is oil(or urin) on almost all of the inside of the cabinet... it's a mess.

BUT, that's the way we like 'em... cheap!!! I'll try to get a page created with some pictures soon.
UPDATE: 07-11-2009
Added the Omega Race page. It is the largest web page we have started a game off with... loads of pictures and descriptions of what was done to get the game working.
UPDATE: 07-07-2009
Bought our first two cabaret/mini arcade games this past week. The games, Omega Race and Missile Command. The Omega Race was bought non-working and it now works... the Missile Command was bought working and it is now non-working. You have to love this hobby!

I'll add pages for both games this week.
UPDATE: 06-17-2009
Added the Punch-Out!! page.
UPDATE: 06-13-2009
Installed a new control panel overlay on Track and Field and picked up another Nintendo game yesterday. What game you ask? Why a Punch-Out!! of course! I'll get to adding it's page here later.

I also update the Gyruss page since it's getting very close to being done. I just put the front of the cabinet back together and installed a new control panel overlay. Check it out.
UPDATE: 06-01-2009
Added the Track and Field and Crazy Climber pages to the website while retiring the two pinball game pages to the Old Games page.

I also finished all the wood work on the Gyruss rebuild. I painted the new front panel and re-installed the coin door and control panel. Almost looks like I didn't do anything... which is how it's supposed to look. I'll update the Gyruss page with some pictures later.

Finally(yep, busy game weekend) I started on the Track and Field. I replaced the power cord, installed a new on/off switch in the marquee light, started to re-wire the control panel buttons, and painted all the black trim. Again, I'll update the page later tonight with more pictures.
UPDATE: 01-01-2009
My other HUGE hobby is Christmas Lights... yes... Christmas Lights. This past year we had over 45,000 lights, on 176 seperate channels, and all synchronized to music. Check out our Christmas website here: MaineLights.org
