Nes4Life's Kent raid

[maskeddev]

Mate, that's looking good with the round buttons!

Has it got a home lined up?

 

[virtvic]

Excellent fix, Phil!

You're really getting the hang of that sort of thing now!

I thought Snow Bros was one of the ones we tested that was a bit buggered. What about Robot Policeman? Is that next on the fix it pile?

That cab looks 500% better with round buttons. Woiuld be better with some leaf buttons though. Give me a shout if you want some free ones!

Channel27 came and took the T2 this morning. He then went on to B&Q to make the most of the van hire

Hope you really enjoy it mate. The chassis is already booked in for a repair with Gunblade!

Thanks again, mate.
The T2 got home safely after a trip to 2 different B&Qs... Don't trust the online stock checker

The monitor is on its way to Gunblade today

Plugged in the Europa coin World Cup 90 today. Booty PCB is displaying garbage but monitor works. Need to replace the PSU as it's throwing up interference. Threw in a Pandora's Box 3 to test it out.

 

[virtvic]

Yesssss!

Another one lives! Excellent. Try one of the other psus to see if it's that or not.
Could it be a ground or sync problem on the monitor side?

 

[bonehead]

Another good result. Get those buttons changed again and it will look cool.

 

[virtvic]

Again - if you need some buttons, Phil - I got loads doing nothing.

 

[channel27]

A rediculously fast 1 day turn around by Gunblade...!

 

[big10p]

Nice one, and nice one gunblade!

 

[Nes4life]

Been digging through Crude Buster today and found the original PCB in pretty good shape (although showing garbage). I also found a pretty interesting flyer about Europa Coin!!

 

[Nes4life]

So they named themselves after the estate they were on?!

 

[Hurray Banana]

I wonder who decided to put fruity buttons on the CP's

That must have been a deep and heavy meeting to come up with that name then

I wonder who decided to put fruity buttons on the CP's

I know, what on earth possessed them?

I always thought it was only lazy ops that replaced the odd button with a fruity one. I remember our local arcade put them on a Street Fighter cab so we christened it "nudge fighter 2"

Cool flyer! Interesting seeing that forgotten world's cab. Surprised they didn't add the art like the other cabs you got seeing as they had gone to the trouble of making a dedicated cp for it.

 

[jase38]

Interesting flyer. There's actually an arcade in Sheerness with a couple of these cabs still in operation, along with Revolution X.

 

[virtvic]

My Lordsvale type Europa cab isn't on that flyer!

 

[maskeddev]

I like to think the estate named itself after Europa Coin. It is Erith.

Love the flyer!

 

[Nes4life]

Crude Buster cab is alive! The PCB is deaded but still in good condition.

 

[maskeddev]

Lovely stuff!
