      That story how your Quantum came to be is insane haha game looks very cool. So many good games man i got a chance to play Jay's Major Havoc at FreeplayRI, was my first time playing it, has beautiful graphics.
      Paperboy is totally worthy of nice sideart and restore for sure man. That's cool you dumped the rare crazy climber rom for mame. I like discs of tron ; ) Qbert is so classic its crazy. Tapper's side art always reminded me of the show Cheers' intro.
      720 was always elite for me, older kids were killing it and id like die from bees and fail epically haha
      I would absolutely convert that sente cab to a Stocker, one of my grail games.
      Goodstuff man be well.

    The PPU is the Picture Processing Unit. There's one in the NES as well. People have pulled the PPUs out of Play Choice 10s and put them in their NESes just to get RGB output. Though you have to patch the games to be compatible with the different color palettes.

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  6 лет назад +1

      Yes, I know. :) Certain VS. PPUs work with the NES RGB mod. The prices of those PPUs shut up crazily.

    Cool stuff. I'm surprised I've never heard of some of these. I'd have more fun here than at the huge ohio amusement park arcade I just watched a video of. That one vector game major havoc is tripped out.
    They had a 720 machine at the 711 around the corner from me but I think I'd die right away to bees and then have to leave. IDK but I was always way more into the idea of the game than I got to play it. I remember being let down by the nes version.
    I recently noticed the 1985 Disney movie 'The Black Cauldron' looks and sounds a lot like dragons lair and space ace.The sound and animation is so similar. It even has yellow flashes once in a while

    If I were you I'd leave the sente cabinet where it is and swap the mortal kombat 2 for one of your smaller cabinets such as the PAC Caberet or computer space ball. The mk2 just sticks out to far and is to wide for that spot. I think the computer space ball is the best choice because then I'd be right across from the computer space.

    • @ArcadeFreak-gw5rp

    On the Robotron brain level, do you know the trick of keeping the brain guys from grabbing Mikey? The brains won't turn the moms into evil moms until they pick up Mikey. So don't pick up any moms, at all, try to kill all the brains, and keep one of the firing robots alive. You can then clean up every single mom. Massive points.

    John you missed a secret warpzone in super mario Bros when you made that block appear on 4-2 there's actually a secret vine in the blocks near there you can climb it and in the nes version it takes you to 8-1 Vs version I think takes to 6-1

  • @foxhound34

    John, Im a long time viewer and first time arcade owner as of this past Sunday. Now Ive got a question for you. Ive been scanning over your videos and I subbed to Tim's Channel as he rebuilt a Tutankham recently and I couldnt find an answer to my issue. I recently picked up a Tutankham Arcade and in the process of transporting it the degauss wire that goes around the inside of the monitor let go as it appears that it was held in place with rubber o-rings instead of clips as I found like 4 broken o-rings free balling around inside the cabinet when I got home with the unit and couldnt figure out where they came from at first. The Monitor is a Sampo model that was stock with the machine. Do you have any idea what to use to get it back into position and to hold it in place. I was looking for a spot to zip tie it into but couldnt really see anything to tie down to. Is there anything you could suggest as a fix to this issue as I wasnt sure about duct taping it to the monitor after discharging it first of course to avoid shock. If figure at some point youve run into this issue before an may have a fix for it.

    • @Johnsarcade
