We have definitely released the latch, squeezed my head in the board panel access door. Can see the the latch and its released. When we push towards the bezel and it's hard up against the bezel, it hardly moves, as for lifting the CP can't see how the CP will clear the Bezel. Thanks for your help but I think it is maybe something is bent or jammed to not allow any movement. Do you have any other photo's that may help us ? The one of the CP you posted was out of focus :) Thanks MH

Thanks for the response. Backwards so pull the the CP towards the front ? Tried with some force, still not moving. Confirm that it is just the one clip to releases the CP ? The monitor Bezel is still fitted, does this need to be removed, my guess is that it get removed once the CP is out. I had a Blue Namco Exceleena, and it was way easier to get access. Is there any other clips / screws that I need to know about. Cheers MH

Hi, I have a Namco Exceleena 2 (Red Candy Cabinet). For the life of me I can't figure out how to get into the thing ! I have opened the coin and board door/panels. I have a released the CP latch, but how does the CP come out ? Its seems to be jammed. Any help would be appreciated. Cabinet looks like this one here : http://www.aussiearcade.com/showthread.php/80288-Namco-Exceleena-2 Cheers MH

Thanks again Nick and Sharon for hosting us, Me and my son had a blast, your pins all looked amazing, loved playing White Water. That T2 Machine was brutal, making for some quick games. Taj enjoyed World Cup Soccer. Thanks to everyone there for making us feel so welcome. Also Paul thanks for running around and organising the competition, it was definitely better having double elimination. So many machines and all in tip top condition, a credit to the owners. Even better the AB's won the against SA. Cheers

Thanks for the invite, first one I have been to here in NZ, great hosts made us feel at home, great community. Enjoyed it a heap, best of all got home in time to watch the rugby. Thanks Paul and Angel for hosting us, amazing machines.

Finally flying back to NZ in just under two months, after being posted to Canberra for 3 years, with the NZDF. I am real keen to join in. Currently saving for my first table or arcade machine. I have been looking over here (Oz) for a cheap machine, before I head back as I have spare room in the container :) Looking at the posts its looks like minded people have a few beers and laughs, while playing pinball. Are the meets Kid friendly, (or is it strictly AO). My 9yo is an addict like me and plays any game, he came with me to the capital pinball met here in Canberra, and loved it. He is one telling me how we are going to setup the man cave, when we get back. ie We need this table and this machine. Cheers

Sorry to Thread Hijack I am after one aswell, the only one I can see on ebay is $50 incl shipping from UK, as mentioned. Ryan555 have you got the diagram on how to DIY one ? Cheers

Have sent to a PM interested in Munchman mini and full, + Microvision, and SS Controller.

I had an aftermarket component cable, giving me 480p, I remember when I went from composite to s video, I was like wow. However Component is best IMHO and you can hack it to VGA :)

WOW ! Less than $2 a cart incl P&P... that is a great buy. Cheers

The original XBOX doesn't have wireless controllers or "USB". So I would say no. You would need original XBOX controllers. Are you asking for use with a CO-OP 4 player game ? Regards

Why is it there is nothing for months and months ... Then... There is alot of stuff.. I just picked up this lot for $66 NZD all up. http://iforce.co.nz/i/nrzs2rfi.b3r.png http://iforce.co.nz/i/rdmdqte4.yhb.png I mainly wanted the YELLOW Game Gear, hopefully it works. They are all untested. Worth the risk, I can always transplant.. Cheers

Picked up a few bits and pieces finally . . . SNES related stuff... Cost me $135 NZD all up. Brought them blind... the seller had no photo's up. http://iforce.co.nz/i/fvvoxoen.cbb.jpg Cheers

Had a chance to have a look and play with on this machine, it's real nice. I was gutted I couldn't get the funds together. It's a tidy machine with new decals. Jays an honest bloke who really looks after his machines. Gutted that it has been sold. Congrats on the sale. Cheers

The main thing with the drive is that there are different thicknesses as some are 12mm thick, they won't phyiscally fit in e PS3. You need to purchase a 9.5mm thick, 2.5in Sata drive. Most drives has there thickness shown.

I keen for any racing on any track... I would upload the car to club garage however it is a locked tune, I will find out which one I am using, then share the info here... Its not the fastest on the straights, but corners real well :) I tend to race with auto gears and a little bit of ABS. I do suggest if we do only use stock and use guys want to use RWD, we may want to have TCS as well otherwise it would be carnage, maybe we should have a race night on "The Fortnightly Track". Maybe 2 races of 5 / 6 Laps. This would be a great way for other drivers to see what lines other racers use, plus grow the "Community"..... Need to find my Headset !!! Cheers

I tend to use other people tunes, I look for a set up with a lot of grip, so I don't have to nurse the throttle. Will try and improve my time tomorrow night when I get home. I am using the wireless speed wheel, house shoe thingy, as my race setup is back in NZ. I find it easier to use than a controller. Will have a decent crack at it this week. Once done I will share car and setup. Willing to do some racing together if people want to see what lines / braking distances I use. I am competitive and love a good race. Cheers

Great to see people getting into it, I am out of town this weekend however will be back on Tuesday night for some more practice on the Tsubuku track. If anyone is on maybe a race or two.

While waiting for some racing action, here is a challenge. Forza 4 --> Community --> My Club --> Club Leaderboard --> Circuit --> D Class --> Tsubuku Circuit --> Tsubuku Short Launch Race. See if you can beat other players times. Intention is play / practice this track for a week then try and race on a predetermined day. Thoughts ? I figured we would use D Class cars (As they are forgiving) and picked a track that is short and not to difficult to learn. See you on the track.

What's this plan, I have just been jumping and playing tracks that other people have played, trying to beat their times. What class are we going to start with ? Something not to fast so the newbies can get use to the car handling. Maybe class C or D. I am keen to get this started, I haven't played in months, just started to play again this w/e forgot how much I enjoy it. Maybe even settle on a short track for a week or so, then choose a race night and have some fun :) Has everyone got Voice comms ? Cheers

Had a quick play last night at the Capital Pinball Night.. Great Night.. played a few games.. got to see the unboxing.. here is my 8yo son beating a much older crowd. Love the Game, Sound, Lights, playfield. Definitely want to play this more.

This is literally down the road from home (Live in Harrison), currently in Adelaide with work, flying back in tonight. See all the Aussie arcaders there. Looking forward to it, bring my son (8yo) to school him on pinball. Cheers

What size screens are used ? Mainly interested in the playfield size. Also what are make / model # of the screens please. Looking forward to seeing the photos. Where abouts in Victoria are you ? Cheers

+1 that would be a massive bonus.
