I need rehab.......I just bought this....Missile Command Cabaret
Wade:
I wouldn't call that game a beater just based on the picture and the fact that it doesn't work. It might be in really good condition except for the chips on the front laminate.
But as you know, I've driven 6 hours and and put some work in, just to get a beater game. :) So I'm more from the same school of thought as Level42. :)

Oh there is no question you need help. This picture says it all: hehe
Level42:
Pfff, some new vinyl and the chips are gone.
This is sold by an (old?) lady, so who knows, this might be the "fuse replaced, game works 100%" cab that I have yet to come across. Besides, what's the challenge in a working cab.... ;D
Gonna buy my wife a nice bunch of flowers and then break the news to her tomorrow :D

Good luck!
Those "needs a fuse" games really do happen sometimes. The Centipede I picked up (from a game guy, even) was "dead" and he said all he did was turn it on and it did nothing. He did no other troubleshooting. Turns out all that was wrong was a connector had come loose from the power supply, and the monitor needed adjusted. That's it, it works 100% otherwise! The guy I got it from is actually honest, though.

Shoot, you show that picture like it means something. What kind of person doesn't have a 4 player racing game in his basement?
