You can get em at PetCo too! It is an aquarium light basically. I am still debating if I will bother replacing the fixture in my Neo-Geo MVS. Double Dragon and Bosconian both have working ballasts and new bulbs.

Oh, it's fine - there is a guy that can do it out here and I don't trust mailing anything at the moment. But I'll check for deets on it.

What model is it? As long as you don’t send the chassis to me via usps and it’s a WG model, I can most likely do this.

I really enjoy Defender and about a year ago got into Stargate after getting a full board set for it. I’m by no means great at it though.

When starting it the last few times it wasn't saving settings. I remembered tonight that it's just three AA batteries on the circuit board. I just got out of bed, changed them and we're good. I finally fixed something.

And saw that I had not shut the garage door. So I'm glad I did that and no deer or turkeys got into the garage.

It did end up being a longterm game. This was the last game I purchased, except for the Wizard of Wor deal that I mentioned in the other thread.

You were right to have bought that.
I think it is a long term game. Especially since the minute something goes wrong with the power or the board, they both come out and that arcade-perfect Multi Williams board goes in.

I have to get over my fear of NOT saving enough humanoids. That is what stops me from playing it. I feel bad that I am so bad.

Sheetrock is an amazing buy at the moment. Lots of people forgot about sheetrock!!

It's true. When I came home tonight I got to 15,00. These are baby scores.

Here is a photo.

Living with it, Defender may be the best arcade game of all-time.

Or the best arcade game.

Thinking it might be behind Robotron but ahead of Ms. Pac.

Oh and I suck at it. 11,300 after 2 days.

I wish I had seen that sooner, lethargic! The Defender is in my garage.

will there be gameplay video?

by Ice Cream Jonsey » Thu Aug 29, 2013 7:35 pm

Well, I didn't sell Gauntlet II, I gave it away.

There is a possible deal that will land a Defender my way tomorrow.

by Ice Cream Jonsey » Thu Mar 14, 2013 5:02 pm

1) I am never selling that Gauntlet II
2) I AM getting a Defender. Somehow.
