Cleaning and Repair,
or "We
don't need no steenkin' MARQUEE!"
The
cabinet
was formerly Pac Man, and had been converted to JAMMA and had it's
sides
painted black. The CP looks to have been completely redone, as it now
has
2 joysticks, and two buttons for each player. The monitor bezel was
also
replaced, as the game had been converted to.. Twin Eagle. I have
removed
the Twin Eagle marquee, bezel and board, and currently have Macross
Plus
in it. It's an ugly arrangement, but workable. It's in my garage,
painted
black and has a plexi cover over the CP, so cleaning isn't an issue.
The
monitor front glass lifts out easily to allow cleaning of the screen.
No
repairs
are necessary at this time, as it all works perfectly and is quite
stable.
Upcoming JAMMA cab
projects
as of 7-26-01:
-
Reproduction of
original SSM/Macross
Plus artwork, instruction card, marquee. I have rough scans of them and
hopefully it won't look too ugly when I have them blown up to normal
size.
- Remove the Twin
Eagle control
panel overlay and the plexi cover, maybe clean the buttons up a bit
- Create or replace
artwork
on monitor front glass. Where there would normally be artwork or
SOMETHING
on the front glass there is nothing, and you can see right into the
machine.
