I saw these kids playing the duck crane and had to take a picture. It reminded me of how I was and why I started this business. It wasn’t about money. I didn’t make anything for years. It was about passion. It wasn’t work it was fun and I was lucky enough to build what I dreamed of when I was 10 and I put every quarter I had into an arcade game.

I took pictures of a control panel restore that I did on a vintage Super Pac Man arcade game today. The whole process took about 3 hours. I’ve done this many times over the years to lots of games that I have restored. Removing the old artwork and the adhesive is messy and takes a lot of patience but it’s so worth it to achieve the end result. This is just one part of the whole process of restoring a game. I have spent as much as 50 hours on a single game.
