dragonlee Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 Atari Black Widow Restore Imported Atari Space Duel cabinet been converted to Double dribble from previous operator in the USA. In USA they classify this as a IRISH cabinet due to being a wood grain version so therefore ive decided to convert it to a BLACK WIDOW which is a vector game. Very hard to source a good working vector monitor for the cabinet so ive decided to set it up with a raspi jamma board to only boot Black widow in a hi res set up(LCD). This is staying in my collection and yes im going to LCD the cabinet.Before you bag the shit out of the cabinet being LCD,you need to check your back yard of bar arcade VENUES what they have done to the dedicated machines.I wont mention any venues at all..:lol Customised side art. New t-molding installed Control panel will be refurbished due to many punctured holes. Marquee installed. Here some pictures; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrjamma Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Was it Bally who made the US galaga cabs? i remember seeing a plaque on a restore once I grew up playing arcades in the 90s, but my uncle got me onto playing Galaga and thats one of my favourite classics to date. Does it have a working board, or going to put something like 60 in 1 Cant wait to see the outcome. Artwork looks so fresh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
