I have one the only good thing is that there like 50 pounds unlike a real one which is like 300 pounds, LCD screen sucks, there 3 feet tall, and made of cheap shit
dig dug only needs one button
I have the high score in dig dug at the woodbury brewing company

dig dug only needs one button
get a pacman one, it has no buttons
the key is don't let the dragons and guys in glasses distract you from dropping rocks, you drop 2 rocks you get a vegetable and after like 4 vegetables they start being eggplants which are worth like 2000 points each
get a pacman one, it has no buttons
pacman isn't dig dug though
if pacman was dig dig I'm probably do that

Put in a raspberry pi and play both, but if you play dig dug on the pacman cabinet, it is a real challenge because of the missing butyon
I'm good enough at dig dug that I could probably pull that off

too much, I got two skee ball machines for 1500, I did flip one of them for 2500, but 5k is way too much

make an alert for craigslist, the ones for 5k sit there forever becuse there priced too high, and find local auctions

temespet is a vector monitor, not CRT and there flakey as fuck and big bucks to fix
I didn't even realize you could do that on craigslist, I only use it for hookers
for the price of 150 blowjobs I could have my own skeeball table that's a hell of a bargain
