Welcome to the What's New News!

Here you will find all the latest news of what's happening with the Arcade Restoration Workshop!

December 30, 1999

December is about over and so is this Year. I thought I would end all of them with a new Photo Tutorial on doing a "Cap Kit" on a Sanyo 20EZ monitor (Used in Nintendo Games). Let me know what you think or if you have any questions. The Cap Kit is part of my Popeye Resurrection. I picked up a Popeye for $50, the side art is "OK", its missing some parts here and there where people have been picking at it and playing with it. When I got it the monitor was powering up, then immediately powering off. After doing the Cap Kit, it now works great. Now I have to fix the power supply or replace it with a new one/switcher. Haven't decided on that yet. Once I put a Popeye page together I'll have more info to share on it. I want to wish everyone a Happy and Safe New Year! If the world doesn't explode on the first, then you should see more updates :-)

Galaga Died

So my Galaga died today...

I'm not sure if it's coincidence or related, but I was turning the power off on my Defender by the power switch under the control panel at the exact time it failed. The switch was a bit tough to toggle so it was like in the half way position when it happened. Both games are on the same circuit.

Kickman Restoration/Preservation started

Restoration/Preservation has begun on my Kickman.

It's not a full restoration, but more of a preservation of what is there. I like trying to keep things as original as possible. With that in mind, I can take a few chances on this one as the damage is already done. I'm mainly trying to prevent even more damage when I can. Worse comes to worse, I'll do a full restore on it down the road.
