I bought a Defender!
« on: August 30, 2008, 06:59:09 pm »
I'm excited to announce that I bought a defender today! ;D Not working ATM though. It will be my first dedicated game, and my first attempt at fixing a non-working game. I've started a thread in the restoration forum for it (pics included): http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=83956.msg877932#msg877932

I'll be  watching this thread close. I will be working on a Defender soon, so maybe we can both help each other get them working. I don't get to keep it though. On the bright side, it looks like I will be negotiating for a "used to work" Spy Hunter.  ;D

I agree! My main "must have" is DK. Beyond that, I need to put together a wish list. But once we get our next house, I can envision something like 6-10 cabs in my collection. :)
