THe only thing bad was the screen that already was ghosted has hell... aside from that the volume, handling, everything was pretty good, and they where 2 Deluxe machines connected to each other. Good head-to-head racings I made there... =)
There's also a pretty good Twin cabinet in the center of Montijo but it's of Sega Rally 2.
That one is really good, like 95% good.
But why where these good?
Because they have someone to look out for them.
In the bowling, the owners where very restrict about managing the arcades: example: No kids allowed. EVER.
Kids tend to break them...
And in Montijo: the small arcade saloon is owned by a lady that has her store right next to it, so she's always watching the ppl that enter the saloon and makes shure they use the arcades properly.
That still helps to preserve them. But there are places that the machines are completely "abandoned", just there for the small profit they may still give... What a waste. =(
One i saw for example: Gals Panic II.
That game i wish to see so much, but i was 9 and it was illegal to see.
Mature game

And it was abandoned as well here. No one cares about that wonderfull machine.
If mame workers fixed the game.....
I must wait... and see.....
