I used to sit at one of these with my lemonade and crisps as a child. Just watching the animations. It was in the main saloon of a North Yorkshire pub that had a lion in a side room.

i love you video's. i used to work for a vending outfit in idaho before i blew out my back. I did all the electronics repair by myself. nothing better then playing something you fixed yourself! and I miss all the video games i got to repair. and it was always a new challenge. keep posting.

I've always liked the aesthetic of the cocktail tables, for some reason. Of course, you didn't see many of them in arcades; most of these were in bars, or in my case, the student center of the local community college. It's nice that the circuit repairs were pretty simple, for the most part. Getting everything clean and restoring the top and those buttons (which are admittedly pretty nasty) will probably take more time than the circuit boards did.

Wow. Seeing that play on the test screen was great. This brings back brilliant memories of when I was young playing the table version in my uncles Pub. I used to collect 10p coins just for this game. I Will look forward to seeing this restored !👍👍 well done people !!!

@danratsnapnames 2 года назад

yep.. me too, put your quarter up on the table, and one in the slot to challenge.. you loose, i keep your quarter, you win, and you get mine and i step down for the next challenger.. loved those days. too bad we cant do anything like this today, no wonder the kids are all screwed up today.

@LyonsArcade 2 года назад

@GOTTshua 2 года назад

I remember 10 quarters along the edge of Asteroids.... in the back of our pizza place. Everyone knew whose $.25 was whose. No one messed with the line-up nor dared to steal a coin. Integrity. Respect. Patience. As well as BEST player keeping the machine, just like keeping a pool table once ya sunk all the stripes then the 8-ball. As little kids, we learned the rules. Policed ourselves in the arcades. Unsupervised fun that taught morals. Learned patterns and techniques. Coordination. Left our mark in the 3-letter high score wall of fame. To see if our "best" lasted until the next week. No participation trophies.

@antonnym214 2 года назад

Ronnie, your banter with Joe is FUNNY! "Top of the line." I loved Asteroids and I also loved the cocktail cabinets. Well done! It's clear that having your level of experience saves time and effort. For example, knowing that those diodes often cause trouble. And which caps will likely need replacement and which will not. You know your power supplies, too. Nice choice, going with the 6502 early in the game. Interesting how that test mode works audibly. Loving the use of the oscilloscope as a monitor! Great show, and Joe should hang onto you like gold because you're a national treasure.

@drjmansplace5174 2 года назад

If memory serves me well, the original Astroids game was also a systems test program for video and cpu performance on the Atari consoles. If the console has the original ROM, the test program could still be there. Astroids and Tetris had these test subroutines.

I will forever love this game. I was 14 when this came out, and if there was ever an arcade game that I actually got "good" at, it was this one. For some reason, the controls and strategy just made intuitive sense to me. I recently visited the Pinball Hall of Fame in Vegas (your videos made me inspired for some EM action!), and ended up spending an hour playing their Asteroids game! Thanks for the video.

That was really entertaining, one of my all-time favourite games. The 2N3055 "bottle cap" is a high current NPN transistor, slaved to the regulator in the small can as you point out. It delivers all the current. For gentle IC contacts cleaning, I use a small fibreglass pen. Great! Keep it up!

Love those sounds. I built a "synthesizer" from an electronics magazine article based on the 76477 sound effects generator chip. SO much fun with that thing, and hearing those sounds again brings back memories. It sounds so old and crude but back then those sounds coming out of one chip were so fresh and amazing and sounded SO high tech! Like a micro-Moog on a chip.

They all had self diagnostics to find bad ram even when them rest of the machine didn't work. Power supply was they place to start with AC ripple. .001 a/c would kill a machine but let it kind of work. Fun watching these fixum up vids. Thanks for putting them on !!!!
