Help with arcade machine!
Alright so I picked up 2 arcade machine's over the weekend and was super excited to play them, played them both for about 5 min each when they were dropped off , and now I have 2 broken machines, one is being gutted to make a mame machine anyway so don't care about it really. The other is one I was going to play while I changed over the other.

In short : bought 2 arcade machines both don't work, one is getting gutted the other trying to figure out whats broken

Here's the video of it doing what makes it unplayable

I should mention I have absolutely no knowledge about any of that type of stuff so I don't even know how to perform that, im slowly researching how to do things. This was the one machine that was working great before and wanted to play while the other got converted to a mame machine. Pretty stupid on my part but hey, was a game from childhood, couldn't pass up

If it's not solved by June, my grandpa can fix it most likely. He used to fix these machines for a living.

ohhhh loved that game

sorry no clue on resolving your problem though :/

remember machines doing that as a kid and the only solution for the person working at the arcade was giving us some quarters and putting an 'out of order' sign on em :
