Title: Is this an easy fix? Post by: mjolman on November 13, 2012, 02:05:55 pm http://imgur.com/hWDL2
I'm looking at buying a red tent, there are two in my area for close to the same price. One had mario and galaga, the other has golf and a motorcycle game. Not sure if its mach rider or excite bike.

Turn down the brightness or the screen on the flyback or some of the colors. It fixed it on mine. Title: Re: Is this an easy fix? Post by: mjolman on November 13, 2012, 07:12:49 pm Thanks. I guess that won't deter me from picking that one, like i said there are two for sale here. Both are asking 500, but i haven't been able to see them in person to see how rough they are.

The other screen needed adjustment and the speaker wasn't working. He was asking 600, I offered 350 and he declined. Hope it works out better with the next one.

I think I paid $300 for mine. Title: Re: Is this an easy fix? Post by: mjolman on November 17, 2012, 01:04:13 am I looked at the second one today. Had mach rider and golf. The mach rider screen was so fuzzy it was illegible, the other was inoperative. Both speakers weren't working either. Had a couple buttons missing and they didn't have keys.
This was a real bummer because the description said it was working and in great shape. I offered 150 as is and they said they'd try to get it working before they accepted an offer. The garage it was buried in had two other cabinets in it. One was a wrestling game, the other was centipede. I did get the other guy to go down to 450, i might cave and buy that one. |
