Today is just a teaser post. I still don’t have any pictures of the new Golden Tee cabinet, but I do have three pictures of my newly acquired Centipede cabinet. I mentioned in my post yesterday that this one was in rough shape. Today, I decided to take the monitor bezel off for a good [...]

New Game Added, Another Coming
Well, it’s been a hectic month. When I last posted, I promised pictures of my newly acquired Golden Tee cabinet with 25″ monitor. Those pictures haven’t been taken yet. I’ve started removing the parts from my All American Football cabinet to put in the new cabinet and am slowly returning the All American Football to [...]
A New Addition, A Project Revisited
Regular readers of this blog will recall a project I started several months ago. 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 [...]
The History Of A Game
Like many collectors, I often wondered about the history behind each of my games. Where was the game originally located and who had the pleasure of playing it? The clues are often cryptic, from the “Potts Inn 1986″ penned on the bottom of my Donkey Kong coin box in black Sharpie to the [...]
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 game play is relatively simple, you are Agent 17, codename: “Otto” and your mission is to secure top secret documents from a 30-floor security [...]
Donkey Kong Reproduction Control Panel
Due to a variety of reasons, posting has been light over the past month or so. I hope to change that today, with a rare “double post” update. Hopefully, after the second post, you’ll see one of the reasons that my free time has been so limited.
First up, my Christmas haul for this year. Really, it [...]
Dig Dug Resurrected
I received yet another Dig Dug board in the mail on Friday. I plugged the board into the cabinet and Dig Dug has been resurrected. The game plays flawlessly and with all of the new components it will hopefully continue to play flawlessly for some time to come!
Hyper Sports Added To Collection
Well, after my recent woes with Dig Dug, it’s about time for some good news. I recently added a Hyper Sports board to my collection. For those of you not familiar with the game, it is essentially the sequel to Track & Field. The board is playable in the Track & Field cabinet, uses the [...]
