Restorations | Ryan's NanoArcade
https://ryansarcade.wordpress.com/restorations
Below are some of the more ‘major’ arcade restoration projects I have worked on during the last few years. Some projects are pretty much completed and others are in various states of completion. I decided to keep the words to a minimum and let the pictures do the talking so be prepared for longer than normal page-load times if you are not on broadband. Enjoy. Finally a Donkey Kong.

Finally a Donkey Kong | Ryan's NanoArcade
https://ryansarcade.wordpress.com/2008/02/03/finally-a-donkey-kong
Finally a Donkey Kong. I had been waiting for a LONG time for a Donkey Kong that I could afford. Today I ended up getting an empty cab fairly cheap from a local guy. The cabinet is in OK shape. The nice thing is that it has new side art. I already had a bunch of the parts lying around to build one so this works. w00t! Finally a Donkey Kong. An error has occurred; the feed is probably down.

Games Games Games! | Ryan's NanoArcade
https://ryansarcade.wordpress.com/2008/03/11/too-many-games
Alright, I will admit it. I cant stop buying games! I’m not sure if its an addiction but its darn close! This is the current state of my one car garage. I wanted to get my car back in for the Winter but that didn’t happen! Honestly, 10-12 games is my comfort zone. I think I am up to 23ish right now. Me thinks a game selling bonanza is in the near future! Finally a Donkey Kong. An error has occurred; the feed is probably down. Try again later. The Real Bob Roberts. Follow “Ryan's NanoArcade”.

All Black on Cabinet Front Repainted. Side Art Touched Up (not finished yet). New Happ Controls Coin/Cash Doors and Mechs Installed. Marquee Glass Cleaned and Installed. Then a great thing happened.

FAQs | Ryan's NanoArcade
https://ryansarcade.wordpress.com/faqs
Will you sell games from your personal collection? I am always open to offers but realistically I would say the answer is no. I have spent a lot of time and money repairing and restoring my games and I probably wont easily part with them. I do, however, currently have some games for sale. Check my for sale page. Where do you buy games? What is a vector game? Below is what Tempest, a color vector game, looks like during game play. Is it hard to fix games? Is the monitor dangerous? It can be. The CRT (...

Ikari Warriors | Ryan's NanoArcade
https://ryansarcade.wordpress.com/restorations/ikari-warriors
Here we have an Ikari Warriors kit (non Jamma) in a Mad Planets (Qbert style) cabinet. I got this game non-working for $50 and that was a generous price. Needless to say I put a bit more than that into it during the restoration. My goal was to have a nice Ikari Warriors that can support other games in the future. I think it turned out pretty good. I have been thinking about selling it but since putting this page together I am having second thoughts.🙂. 8211; New Happ Controls Over/Under Coin Door Assembly.

Defender | Ryan's NanoArcade
https://ryansarcade.wordpress.com/restorations/defender
This has been my biggest project to date. I got this cabinet gutted and accumulated parts as I was able to find them. A lot of wood repair work went into this game as you can see below. Bondo was definitely my best friend. 🙂. Below is a list of some of the work items that where completed with this game. One of the most challenging re-assembly parts was keeping all the grounding straps straight. Williams had a pretty intricate grounding system in their cabinets. 8211; New T-Molding (hot glue rocks!
