Dealing With Broken Arcade Games And Fixing Them
https://arcadeheroes.com - For today's arcade operator perspective, I get into something that generally makes operators groan - fixing broken down machines. Having operated an arcade business, @Arcade Galactic for the past 14 years and with some background in IT, here is some of what I have had to deal with. I also get into the costs behind it, although that is a difficult question to answer.
