Badspot buys an old arcade game for 7 1/2 blockland keys ($150.00)

[_Rave_]

Badspot should do a thing where he browses the forums and commentates while he does it

Badspot must live near me I looked up arcade machines near me and got this. It has the same mix and match buttons and same game it has to be the one he bought I figure.

I can tell by the internal wiring, buttons, etc that this is fairly modern, mid to late 1980's.

Mid 80's wouldn't be modern for an arcade game.  This game came out in 1998.  It's got 3d graphics and stuff.

I want to take and get myself one of those machines and rig it so you don't have to pay for each game.

[Mardalf]

take and get?

I love when he looks at the credit count and says that it made about $2000 in its time and then he says "its a money maker"
"but badspot! you already have a money making game!"

I used to play it in arcades its a crappy game because your health bleeds off as you play so skill or not you have to put in more coins pretty fast to get anywhere in it. I liked it so much though I got it for my xbox and man was it a blast my maxed out speed jester dominated everything and my 2 neighbors and I used to get so hardcore into it and one of them was kinda slow so he'd die all the time and be like level 5 when we were like level 20 and one time he started crying so his mom said we couldn't play it at their house any more lol good times.

You can turn off the health decrease timer in the game options.

Almost every machine has a freeplay mode you can set either through dip switches or some option screen when you boot in service mode. Alternatively you can look up the spec sheet for the coin acceptor and figure out what wires you have to short together to get the machine to think a coin's been put in and wire them both up to a button.

Ohhh okay, in that case I'll probably get a machine with a switch that can do that so I can just play it for hours and hours.
