Re: Stern TSPP,refaire un connecteur 5 volts

Hi, if you're just changing the connector and not the header pins on the board, then you`ll want to use a Molex housing. Pretty sure you're doing a 15-pin connector, so this would be the housing: https://www.digikey.ca/en/products/detail/molex/0009503151/3071801?s=N4IgTCBcDaIAwIJwFY4GYCMyMgLoF8g The...

The other 300 were sent to Europe under the name Karate Fight.
That's a nice one Fernando!

We've all been there... Makes it all the more sweet when you figure out and fix the problem. Grab a beer, sleep on it and come back in a day or two.

Thanks for the reply. In-store they only offered me 8.5"x11". Stickers are a bit bigger in my case

One-off sticker printing in MTL

I have some ramp stickers that did not survive the transfer to my new ramps. These are not laminated decals, but rather stickers. I've been looking around for local printers that can print laminated stickers that I re-drew, but most are interested in large-volume orders. Curious if anyone has used a...

Re: Replay Knockers - a winning sound

I remember visiting a barcade in Vermont (that his since closed) where the staff would cheer every time the sound of a knocker went off in the arcade. It was hilarious... you're playing a game, get the replay and loud "knock" and then hear the staff all cheer you on. We kind of take the kn...

Re: Veteran MAACA Members

I still remember their genuine concern about the electricity that our pins would consume over the weekend when we did the Flea Fair in 2019.

Looking forward to the June 1st weekend !

Re: Anyone here get any of those games up for auction in Avonmore, ON?

Sparky got the Demo Derby??? Awesome! I was talking to Cal from the Auction House and he said that it was in pretty good condition. You guys must have got there early for pick up. Most of the stuff was picked up by the time I got there. I am happy with my purchase....heavy as hell though. Congrats ...

Re: MAACA.ORG website anniversary! 18 years, and counting

I still remember seeing MAACA advertised on either LesPac, Craigslist or Kijiji (can't remember which) in 2004. I owned one game back then and thought it was super cool that others in the MTL area actually had games in their house too. Thanks to the admins for keeping the site going for all these ye...
