Hello all,

     New to this forum but not to classic games. I'm Will and I'm a General Manager at The Geyser arcade in Wisconsin, I've been working in the arcade industry for about 10 years now and I have been working on arcade games for 22 years, since I was 6. I have four kids and two of them are Autistic, both of them love arcade machines to death!! My 5 year old helps me repair the games, it's part of his therapy. I'm glad to have found this forum, this will help my son and on fix games that we just can't figure out and maybe be able to add something useful along the way.
