I'm a Naughty Boy!
claremont:
I stopped at a flea market type shop yesterday and found that they had an arcade game in the back room, out of sight. Naturally I had to take a look and was amazed... and disappointed.
The game condition is unbelievable. The play meter says 700 plays. Not a scratch or mark on it. Literally the nicest cabinet I have ever seen on a 1981 arcade machine. Even the bottom front corners are sharp! The inside is nearly spotless. Everything is present from the wiring to the coin bucket. This thing is not even dusty. Joystick was tight as could be. The buttons felt super solid. Got it home, plugged it in and it started right up perfectly. Played it for 10 minutes and decided I did not care if I ever played it again.
Unfortunately, the game is Jaleco Naughty Boy. On of the biggest arcade fails I have ever come across.
Oh well, for $100 it was mine, and I will not lose a moment's sleep over modding it!

Claremont, any chance you could send me the circuit board? I have a dedicated Naughty Boy machine in my basement that has board problems.

Why would he want to pull the board from a nearly perfect game?
