Happy to report that I fixed about 9 out of 12 of the UMK3 PCBs. I didn't bother with the badly corroded one or the one that appeared to have caught fire :)
Could you help with an arachnid dart machine that lights turn when switched on then shuts off. ? Maybe get tips on what to check. I think it’s the power supply but worried it’s the board. Thanks in advance
You guys do beautiful work. Ultimate Mk3 was my favorite mk game. I bet the work shop smells wonderful. Nothing better than old school arcade games being brought back to life by old school gentlemen.
Thank you...and the smell varies from day to day...especially on hot days!! We love redoing these classics...it does take time but worth it in the end!
I always wonder why you don't have a simple Jamma test rig to test PCBs? With easy to make adapters you would also be able to test a great portion of non-Jamma ones.
With more elaborate games like this, we want to try all the buttons. We have in the past used a Jamma game to test boards we only have a few of but want to sell---with so many MK3 boards, we want the right setup!
Is that a time clock on the wall at 1:18? I would've thought that everyone there would come in and work for free cuz the privilege to work around and learn from the Great Todd Tuckey would be payment enough.
To repair of course...we have sold dozens and dozens of PCBS non working now--35 Donkey Kongs, 50 Centipedes, 30 Galagas, etc etc...people fix them and then sell the working boards!
At 0:24 That looked like my Sega Naomi...heck I don't know what to call it... ready to drop in the mail. Should I call it a Sega Naomi brain box? I got it today, now I have to figure out what the heck to do with it. :)
I remember shoot the bear at the pavilion at "Eagle Point Park" North of Clinton, Iowa. The city owned the park. My Uncle and I would play it and it was a miracle we didn't break it. We had the bear turning around so much.
Tod was in my underwear this morning at 6am watching your video even before letting my 1year old pure bed jack Russel female out to go potty and before getting up to make coffee ...and even half awake enjoyed your video can't understand why anyone would leave negative hands down ....ps can you please add video of you asking your beautiful young bride if you can bring that old dusty driving game home looking forward to her response ok yes left hands up

The sounds that the Firepower game makes brings back many happy memories. (Santa Monica Pier arcade circa late 70s/early 80s)
Glad it did!!
you keep teasing me by walking past that supersprint over and over 😅
Next video will be the last time you see it...as we pack it up...that video posts Friday!

Actually, regular Mortal Kombat 3 had the run buttons as well as Ultimate Mortal Kombet 3. Good video!
Kombat*
Hey todd, do you guys find the Orange LEDS just arent bright enough?
SOmetimes...it depends on where they are used!
I see a "Taxi" pin, Super Sprint and Mortal Kombat 3. If someone walked in on me right now watching this I would react as if I'm looking at porn.
Yes...plenty of great things coming!!
Better watch that button. Might be a shortcut to the mind craft world
It was!

These CREEPS insist I pay them once a week! (Plus Pension, sick days, vacation days and Holidays too!
TNT Amusements Inc pension AND sick days? Wow. I gotta come work for you!
all those bad boards for 600 bucks? what would a person want them for? spare parts?

TNT Amusements Inc love the channel btw but why can't you fix and sell the sell them yourself more $$ to make :)
Because it's better if Arcade Jason buys them and makes long form repair videos.
chuck norris too much time consumed for them
no time!!
Those MPU boards always seem to be a mess. Not that it cant be fixed, just have to replace a good portion of the components haha
if they get moisture on them or some clodhopper mistreats them!
With Bally its somehow always acid damage. With the older Williams boards it just looks like stuff was on fire lol
Todd, how much for a working UMK3 PCB?
I have a clean tested board for $250!

The system of the FUTURE!
You must bring them to pinfest if you are going this year 👍
Yes...will have all sizes!
Why can't you turn the transformer round so the wires are pointing at the back! And just put a sticker on the back saying danger high voltage
the tabs are on BOTH sides...all those transformers are the same!
Todd, I haven’t sent you some coffee in a while! I’ll do it this week :) (mark from RI)
That would be wonderful Mark!!
That jukebox is so cool todd, you have tons of cool stuff
Thank you!!

Hey Todd, looks like you have difficulties to breathe, have you been a smoker?
