dragonlee Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Red LAI Restoration Finally got the pleasure and time to restore a LAI Cabinet on my do list. Red LAI Tmnt Cabinet been hacked severely...Lol Easy enough for me that I have all the parts to bring it back to original cab. Installing a 26” Nanao Monitor. New control panel will be installed with wico joystick instead of Mca. New credit panel bezel will be installed to cover the original hack.(Perspex cut) Only part of the cab won’t be original is the internal wiring because I will set up 4p hardware for Konami games via Raspi.

Johns-Arcade Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 To be honest, it's probably better the op re-purposed the cab and kept it making money. The other alternative would have been the dump like a lot of classic games from that era. The good news is it can now be converted back to an original Pac-Man.
