Title: Vs. System Repair
Post by: michiganfan2 on October 19, 2014, 02:11:21 pm
I apologize in advance if this is a "dumb" question but I am looking for some help, so here goes....

I picked up a Nintendo Vs. Red Tent system with the Playchoice 10 conversion kit already installed.  It worked fine when I purchased it but shortly after that, the flyback transformers on both monitors started arcing.  Do any of you know of anyone who can repair or replace these?

I am also looking for a key for the bottom Playchoice 10 door.  I have no keys at all, fortunately the top of the unit is unlocked.  I would like to be able to swap out some of the PC10 games without drilling out the lock.

Any advice is greatly appreciated by this "newbie".

Thanks!!

Mike

Arcadecup.com can fix your monitors.

The locks are probably not original Nintendo. Drill them. Or post a photo of the lock. Could be Takigen 6510s. Doubtful though as those are typically on the hood only.
