New arcade opened up in my hometown. Has one of these but it’s a more bootleg version of it called Gatcha Treasure Treat. It’s the generic pinball game but I’m just wanting to find out if it’s all skill based or if it’s rigged to a […]

Hi, My friend has the arcade shown in the picture. It is Hit the Ice, with some NBA jam decals and parts. He says it used to play NBA jam but he has no idea how to switch between games. Is this some type of custom one off machines, or a Frankenstein […]

I picked these up yesterday. I was under the impression that both ere in such bad shape that they'd be complete rebuilds and I'd make them both MAME. However, the one pictured in front actually powers on, but has no video or sound. The steering […]

I was looking at donkey Kong arcades and I was wondering why the barrel side looked turned like that? submitted by /u/According-Risk-4047 [link] [comments]

It started doing this a few months ago, only noticable when I was really wailing on it during heightened gameplay, but it has become worse since then and just tapping the cp or cabinet sharply causes this static. Other than that the audio plays […]

Found a cabinet at a very decent price online for around 600, however it is stated that when you take it out of the test screen it just stays static. So not sure if it’s a simple fix or something that would cost more to fix. This would be my first […]

I am looking for a claw machine ( like something in the picture ) It has to be able to be shipped to Canada and I would like it to be under $1000. I am building an arcade room in my house and my son has been asking for a claw machine for the longest […]

I just finished beating Time Crisis II using a Retro Lightgun and pedal. This game is almost 30 years old and it’s still a solid game in 2025. Which action movie do you think influenced the game? My answer is Lethal Weapon. A lot of action arcade […]

Wondering if anyone has used any decent companies before? Grabbed some decent auction machines and need moved around 250 miles. Looking for options before we just go up and rent a truck to load and truck back. 8 machines total around 2200lbs. […]

Had decided Barbed Wire was the pick and sent the deposit…Then Marsha Mills of Flagship Carpet recommended sending samples to see what I’d be getting before fully committing. Going to stay with Barbed Wire, with a larger design.. basically […]

I remember playing this at two different theme parks in the 90s. One was King's Island and I think the other was Six Flags but I can't be sure. It was a sit down light gun game with uncomfortable metal stools built into the machine. Little aliens or […]

Edit: Game found to be Star wars blaster strike. Suggested that it might have been a molded cabinet seeing as I played it on a light gun cabinet at an arcade. Thanks everyone. Hi all hoping someone knows the exact name because I can't seem to find […]

Hey all, My boss (I'm a caregiver for a quadriplegic man in a wheelchair, who wants to use this machine for a little extra income hopefully) recently picked up an animal house claw machine, specs inside said its an NC60 by Rainbow crane circa 1996. […]

Does there exist anywhere a COMPLETE list of all arcade games released during the golden age of arcade games? In other words, and exhaustive database of every second gen arcade cabinet that was made, regardless of rarity. Any links would be […]

Saw this in an arcade in Taipei in the summer of 2023. does anyone know the name or anything about this video game? submitted by /u/pgoyoda [link] [comments]

Hi there, so I’m trying to find out about a fortune telling machine, that I remember from the 80’s. Google didn’t help, mostly just pictures of the Zoltar speaks from the film Big. I remember the machine I’m thinking about was a woman, but […]

Paid $700 on FB Marketplace. Had to drive a couple hours but was able to borrow a family truck and pad it appropriately for safe transportation (I drove with blinkers on under the speed limit the entire drive back 😅). It's my top 3 favorite video […]

This would sell out fast. submitted by /u/OkFactor2325 [link] [comments]

The three cabinets on the left have been restored. PacMan 1980 (just needs front art) Gauntlet 1985, 20th Reunion (was actually a Ms PacMan that was converted!!). The DK JR and Killer Instinct are brand new cabinets that were built from scratch. […]
