Shared on Thu, 10/15/2009 - 21:19So I picked up my 3rd coin-op cab today, a Ms. Pac-Man "Frankenstein" cab. Basically, someone took a Ms. Pac-Man board and placed it inside a Taito cabaret (mini) cab. The game currently coins up but plays blind (no video on monitor). The guy I got it from claims that it worked fine prior to a recent move. I need to clean it up and investigate to see if I can get the monitor to come on. I would love to have this thing playable by Sunday for my next Video Game BBQ party. Anyway, below are some pics.
Here is the cab itself. Notice the poor quality control panel overlay and marquee. These are just photo reprints and not true graphics. I will have to work on these down the road.
Here is a close-up of the marquee, control panel and monitor. Notice the burn-in on the monitor screen.
Here is a pic of the Main board in the cab. It appears as if someone did some wierd additions/subtractions to this board.
Anyway, I will be working on this and will report back if and when I get her up and running. Wish me luck.
