Dear all,
I am attempting to build a dream arcade replica of something I always wanted since I was a child but could never play. I only managed to play Space Invaders on an Apple 2. My parents never let me play with the arcade versions. They were usually in dingy smoke filled arcades with undesirable...

Reply to Scratch Built Aussie Coctail CabDear all,
I am planning to build a Space Invaders replica cabinet but I do not have a sample to measure from. So far I have designed it from pictures and I really think it is not proportioned. I hope someone here can help me out. Thanks in advance.

Reply to VPGL 14 - Game 2 ~ Gilligan's IslandI am not sure I'd play again for 1 point between 1st and 2nd 😆

It is the most DMD like game by Jed rulings that I've ever played though. It does look very pretty and the VPX recreation was one that has been done very well. I'm confident...Today, 03:00 PM

Great scoring by the way, even if it is boring you... no one is making me want to download this table very much.

That is the problem. Unless you hunt for the elusive OEM part that is rediculiously expensive and then change the pins and check every connector, the problem can still be there all for the sack of the 5volts being slightly down by the smallest amount.
The part's role isn't hard, a simple 5 volt...Today, 02:17 PM -
