I just picked up a soldering iron and a couple "learn to solder" kits on Ebay. Probably pick up a few more kits in the coming weeks...put together some robots and cheap crap before I try my hand at fixing a $2,000 game.

does it have the wedge based bulbs or the normal ones? the normal ones have earthleakage all the time, just trace the wires if its the board theres cleaning fluid, if its a game that has been in a bar thats prolly it, beer n stuff ruins the games, the boards gets humid and all

Here's the problem and how to fix it:

I'm just not ready to attempt it. Also, it's only half the lights behind the backglass that don't work, so it's not affecting gameplay at all...it's only a cosmetic issue and not very noticeable, so it can wait to be fixed.

They got a website??? I think the monitor and computer will cost close to the 1K. The cabinet itself must be at least 1K for parts and labour....

I've been trying to get my hands on a KISS pinball machine for years.

At one point I had a $3 Million dollar per year budget buying for the Hard Rock and even then...couldn't get one.

When i lived up in NJ they had Video game auctions all the time, mostly arcades going out of business.

I picked up a Shinobi and a Punchout for $50 each, they are in perfect condition.

Always on the lookout for a perfect Dragon's Lair :)

:thumbsup

Do a search for MAME on Ebay. They are the biggest seller of MAME cabinets on Ebay.

I've got two of those USB Light Guns (the $100 TV-out versions). They're okay, nothing great. Accuracy is nowhere near arcade quality, especially if you try to use two guns at once. Police Trainer works good with one gun.

Ever hear of Ebay? There's like 3 or 4 a week for sale in the pinball category. They go for around $2-3k. They made 17,000 of them so it's a VERY common machine.
