Need help finding parts old games
« on: December 09, 2004, 02:14:28 pm »
Hi guys, been lurking on this site for a long time.  First post :)

Anyway, my uncle recently passed away and among the items left to me were a couple of old games.  I probably shouldn't have bothered but I threw them in the back of my truck and drove them all the way home to Socal from Portland.  Ugh.  Remind me not to ever take PCH North of San Francisco again, scary!

One of the games is Orbit.  Anyone know where I can find a new control overlay?  Even a reproduction would be nice.

Another one I can't find parts for is Polybius.  The cabinet is in decent shape and it seems to run alright, although there's no sound.   

Has anyone ever heard of this game before?  This one is new to me.  Also, any ideas on where I could find parts for it?  The front bezel thingy has a crack in it so I'd like to replace that for one thing.  I can usually find everything I need on Ebay, but no luck this time.  The place near me has never heard of the game.

Thanks!

Boog
