Quoted from Whysnow:Off topic,but sine arcade guys seem to be in this thread. I have thought of getting a few of the arcades I used to play as a kid to add to my home collection.
Where would I find paperboy, offroad 3 player, marble madness, and rampage? Maybe a four player gauntler dark legacy also, but as I understand it those loose all fun whne not on coin drop.
How much should I expect to pay for each in nicer, good playing condition.
I have a Gauntlet dark legacy for sale at $1000
Quoted from brainmegaphone:Does anyone know if the coin door is standard and available on any arcade supply websites? Mine is broken off and needs to be replaced or welded and refinished. I can do the former but not the latter...
If you don't have the two grey door setup (which is Taito arcade style doors) the single black door is a coin co door that was used on many pinball and arcade games around that same time. You can't buy them new, but should be able to find them used.
Quoted from Code_Blue:Has anyone figured out a proper replacement motor yet?
Years ago, twistywristarcade.com offered replacement motors. I cannot confirm how close they feel to the originals. You might try reaching out to see if getting more is a possibility now that this game (and zeke's) has exploded in price.
Quoted from jp1985:Any idea if the coin co door came with the game?
Yes. The coinco door came with the game and has a hanging coin box inside the machine. The earlier (i believe) games had two separate doors, an upper coin door and a lower coin vault door (to collect from). The two door setup was what some taito video games were using at the time.
Those coin doors were also used on Taito video games and will help widen your search. As stated before, they will be hard to find and pricey if you do find them.
It might be faster to replace the front panel of the machine and cut the hole for a single coinco door - which is far more common as it was used on video games and pinball machines. You will need a coin bucket and holder, and I have one of those I could part with.
That was the washer fluid tubing (automotive) hack instead of buying the real belts. I tried it once, before belts were widely available, and it didn't work great. The tubing was too stretchy and would slip eventually, I was constantly cutting a little bit off the belt once it stretched. If you had more rigid tubing, it would work better.
Quoted from hassellcastle:There is a limit switch at the top side of each belt if memory serves me correctly.
Yours is tripping to early, not allowing the bar to move any higher. You’ll need to adjust this micro switch so that it will allow the bar to go just a little higher.
I remember I had this same issue with mine, many years ago.
Spot on. There are also limit switches at the bottom you can adjust if the ball isn't being served correctly.
