Just a short update today. I didn’t get around to taking pictures of the Operation Wolf cabinet but hopefully will tonight.

Operation Wolf
Sunday, I picked up another game for my collection. I have been working on this one for a few weeks. I was alerted to a non-working Taito Operation Wolf that was sitting in the garage of a house that was for sale. For those unfamiliar with Operation Wolf, you can read the [...]
Centipede Pictures
As promised, I finally have some pictures of my Centipede game acquired last week. Be sure to check out the previous post for pictures of the Golden Tee conversion cabinet.

Being unhappy with the gameplay of Leland’s All American Football, I decided to strip the cabinet and convert it to a Golden Tee machine. I had the opportunity a few weeks ago to pick up another cabinet which have altered my [...]

Elevator Action Repair
In my post on Wednesday, I mentioned a few things that weren’t working properly on my recently acquired Elevator Action game. The joystick did not respond when pushed up, the player 1 start button was not working and the second coin slot was not registering credits. I decided to focus much of my [...]
