I've owned a handful of machines over the past 15 years...all of them older board driven games...I've only ever had to fix minor things...I have been flirting with the idea of buying a newer spike Stern for the past few years but thanks to this thread and those who have contributed to it, I will never buy a spike Stern game either new or used!
Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:Unfortunately, the conditions of game durability go beyond the aspects of electronics discussed. Some of these areas were also mentioned in the video lightly, but not the focus.
The video was a summary of observations and information from multiple sources, not simply an informed opinion, and should be now be understood that Stern marketing is not actual reality.
Hey, not sure if you've posted about this before...but what's your take on proc?
Please excuse my off topicness...
Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:I have not provided a full public write up on PROC, or differences that other manufacturers use as their OS in games at this time here. It is also beyond the scope of this thread.
I may conduct a detailed technical interview in the future to discuss the pros and cons of these modern PC SMD systems which must also include reproduction boards such as Rottendog, Altek, and Pascal to explain their various designs. They are not all created equal, and it is important to understand the differences.
However, PinSide is not the best forum for this type of information.
Cool...looking forward to that
