Barboursville, WV at the Huntington Mall.
That is a bit of a drive from Wheeling...like 4 hours or so.
Here is the info on the arcade:
Tilt Arcade
If you are interested, give them a call and ask them if the White Galaga machine is for sale. Always remember to wheel and deal...It's not like they make a killing on the machine. ;D
Ken Layton:
If it's a CINEMARK theater, they use NAMCO as their arcade operator. Yes, the game manufacturer/licensor operates arcades here in the USA. Namco has their own repair techs sand the vast majority of the games come from their own factories or from companies they own/control.

I'm not sure what he has in at the moment, but he gets shipments of them in from time to time.
He's in So. Cal, so I don't know how much it will cost to ship one though.

This might help with shipping

People bid on the shipping job, I believe. Let us know if it works
Circo:
I used to have one for a couple of years, it was a Jaleco mark 2. The reason I finally sold it and got a wood full size cab was mainly looks and the control panel. There really is no space on those candies to do much in the way of mods. I really like track ball games and that was never going to happen. The other big thing is I got a wells gardner arcade monitor and it seels that the monitors used in those candy cabs are much shallower than any of the others, ie: Betson, WG or Billabs (I have had them all) so I had to cut a big hole in the back of the candy cab to fit it, can you say electrical hazard? Anyway having had one I would suggest against it but they are fairly chead if you can find one. Mine was only $500 out of LA. A hell of a lot cheaper that what I currently have put into my current cab but I was on a budget back then too.
This is what it looked like, I eventually painted the top dark blue and the base black. After a couple of moves though it got pretty scratched up so I had stripped it down and was re doing it when I just gave up and built a standard cab.
