I picked up the Battlezone machine from a guy about 10 miles
north of me. The machine was advertised in the local paper for
$75 cash and carry. I drove to the guy’s house and the
machine was in good shape. The joystick had been trashed which
is common on most of these machines. I bought new joystick handles,
new switches, and new rubber centering grommets.
This beast does have a downside, it’s a bitch keeping
her running. I’ve been through a board set, power supply,
and a couple of odd components. I have two spare board sets
so hopefully I should be set for a while.
I have loved this machine since the first time I saw it. Wire
frame 3D, blowing up tanks, forget about it. The sound is also
remarkably good for it's time. I think it's a keeper.
