Hello!

I found this site and already I'm in love with it! I was looking for a forum dedicated to actually BUILDING and RESTORING arcades so I'm glad I found this  :applaud:

I am looking to buy a "Hook" arcade cabinet which is in fine working order except that it needs a power supply. So my question is, what power supply would definilty work on a Hook upright?? The game was made my 'Irem' and released in 1992.

Link to Hook on KLOV:

I asked a very reputable arcade dealer near me, and here is a link to a power supply that he has that he thinks SHOULD work, but wasn't completely sure without seeing the game in person:

Can anyone help????!




Thanks!!!!

  • Insufficient facts always invite danger.
This is a more MAME oriented board. You should post your question here:

Faxanadu Champ, welcome to the board.
Try posting your questions in Arcade Miscellaneous, or Restorations, you might have better luck there. I'm not certain all the restoration guys that are active on this board read the Main forum frequently.

  • The Game Always Wins
That supply is a standard switcher and should be fine. Tell the Quarterarcade guy that your game is JAMMA if you want to be certain. JAMMA is a wiring standard that many manufacturers started using in the late 80's, and your game is made to that standard.

Good luck and post some pics!



PS: I can't stand Robin Williams.  ;)

I agree, visit the Arcade Misc section.
