Dude that is what I want to do but I didnt know if it could be done.

Does everyone here have a large collection of wooden nickels?
Why not just use quarters? ???

I wired up the coin rejects alongside the coin slot... pay or push to play. I like the novelty of it, but dropping a quarter/token etc can get a little old if you're by yourself.

Not very many real arcades around or reason to have a handful of quarters around to use. It would be nice to be able to use any change and use it as a piggy bank.

As far as the switches behind the reject button, it's pretty much exactly like the pic eds1275 posted. As far as modding the quarter mechs, a few internal parts need to be removed or bent, or filed down, and one piece near the bottom either needs to be cut out (if plastic) or bent straight (if metal).
