Sure!  The original power supplies were crap.

If I had longer I could have probably found a way to adjust the voltage, but time/energy/effort it was just easier to replace the PS.

Fixed the MKII button problem last night. I verified the kick harness was plugged in properly on both sides. One of the LK buttons started working then. I replaced the other LK microswitch, and now it works too. Having fully functional games (that look good too) kicks ass!  ;D

Damnit, you stole my line I already had prepped for once I got them home and posted! And for your info, I planned on 20 admin buttons.

I've wanted a coin-op dart board from day one of deciding on a gameroom.

So here is my updated list of coin-op goodies I wanted:
Video Games
Pinball
Gumball Machine
Dart Board
Pop Machine
Popcorn machine
Coin-op bathroom door
What, no condom machine ? Com'on and how about a pay-phone ?

I personally wouldn't add a MK or a darts machine but that's just my taste :D

Nice score though, both look good and _work_ which is always nice ! :)

No condom machine for me. I would like the version that dispenses sample packs of Advil/Tylenol.

I used to want a payphone, but we don't even have a landline anymore.

I thought the phone would just be for atmosphere.
