Ace Driver: Victory Lap Twin DrivER (Namco, 1994)
For sale is my Victory Lap twin arcade driving cabinet. I have spent the better part of the last year refurbishing this cabinet to get it up to scratch. It presents beautifully and is in great working condition. This is a standard twin cabinet with removable seats. A classic System 22 game.
Game plays like a dream. Force feedback working on both wheels. Both gear shifters registering correctly. Sound works with both speakers in the headrests sounding nice and crisp. All lamps working as they should including both fluorescent tubes and the race leader lamps in the topper. Accelerators and brake pedals register properly. The monitors are 29" Toshibas with MS9-29 chasses. They look great with nice, rich colour. No burn in on either tube.
I have gone through this machine inside and out. The steering assemblies, wheels and dashboards are nice and clean. Seats are intact and leg levellers are nice and straight (and not seized up, either). The only downside is the cabinet. The decals have shrunk a little on the sides, and there are some scrapes and bumps around the cabinet. There was some water damage to this cabinet at some point which has affected the chipboard in the bottom rear corner. The panel at the rear of the cabinet was also replaced.
Game is currently set to free play but comes with two working coin mechanisms. The cabinet disassembles into the main tower with monitors, and the seats. The main tower is on castors so it can be moved quite easily. I can help you load up if need be. You'll need a truck with a tail lift to move this thing. Most people don't look at (or don't know of) any driving cabs other than Daytona but Namco were the original pioneers of the arcade racing genre. This game looks as good as, and gives you a more "realistic" drive, than Daytona any day of the week. Come and have a test play and see for yourself.
For photos and videos of the game, as well as a description of all of the work that was done to it, check the restoration blog post.

Cyber Cycles twin motorbikeS (Namco, 1995)
For sale is my 1995 Cyber Cycles twin motorbike arcade machine by Namco. This game is in good overall condition and is working well. I have fully cleaned this game inside and out and given it a thorough go-over. It was in poor condition when I received it but after a lot of work, it presents nicely. This an an LAI-built game and features the standard cabinet with a central tower supporting the topper, and two monitors mounted on pedestals.
The monitors are 29" Toshibas with Nanao MS9-29A chasses. One of the chasses was not working and was sent to Jomac for overhaul and it works like new now. Both monitors nice and bright with no burn-in.
The topper has had a hard life. It has cracks in several places but these have been repaired. Only one small section of the front plastic is missing (top left). The traffic lights are both complete. The fluoro tube, ballast and fan in the topper were all replaced. Incandescent lamps were also replaced with LEDs.
The fluoro tube in the tower was also replaced. The power supplies are mounted in the tower and one was rebuilt as some of the caps has begun to bulge. Delivering nice solid voltages now.
In the bottom of the tower are the board stack cages. These were thoroughly cleaned. A couple of the boards presented with graphics faults, there were some sound issues with the CPU, and one of the amplifiers had failed. These were all repaired by Jomac. New ventilation fans were installed on both board cages. The wiring loom in this part of the cabinet was also repaired and given a tidy-up.
In terms of the bikes, they have both been cleaned and all switches and potentiometers are working. One of the bike speakers was replaced. The bikes are fully functional but note that the large plastic pieces which cover the base of the bikes are missing. One of the speaker covers has also been replaced with a different grille. New handlebar covers were also installed. The metal checker plates were thoroughly cleaned; they shine like new now!
Manual is included. Game is currently set to free play. Also comes with two S6 coin mechanisms however they are not installed. If you want it set to coin operation I can do this for an extra cost. For transport, the game comes apart into multiple pieces for easier moving. I can help disassemble and load up if necessary.

Fast Gunman 2 shooting gallery arcade game (Dragonwin, 2010)
For sale are several Fast Gunman 2 shooting gallery arcade games by Dragonwin Animation Technology (2010). There are two styles of cabinet, and I have several of each. The first cabinet style is a green cabinet which features coloured bottle targets. The second is a blue cabinet which features silver skull targets. Gameplay is the same for each style of cabinet, although the sound effects for each target hit are different. The cabinets are in two parts, consisting of a pedestal from which the player shoots, and a main cabinet which houses the moving targets. The two parts are connected via cables which are run across the ground. Each cabinet has been thoroughly cleaned, checked and tested for proper operation. I have performed a number of repairs on each of these cabinets to ensure they are fully operational. Some spare parts are included with each machine. These spare parts include spare target opto boards, gun controllers, power supplies, and speaker amplifiers. Power cable, leg levellers, keys, and manual included with each cabinet.
Cabinet style 1: bottles
Cabinet style 2: skulls
