WOW. It is just FASCINATING to watch a live day of work on various games at an on-location arcade! Good research for a game I'm hoping to make in the future, too. Thanks for the video and keep 'em coming!
Those little tables between the games are so important. When I go to a bar/arcade here in Phoenix, I won't play a game unless there is a little table next to it for me to put my drink on. If you're at a bar, you have a drink. Super important. :)
I love seeing "real world" fixes. It shows progress! Keep up the good work and feel free to "bring us to work" every time!
loved this video. I think I'm gonna really like the operator vids. A fresh take on the arcade scene that we rarely get to see.
This Video is awesome. I look it so much....Best Regards from Germany John!
Awesome! I love these on location fix video's!
I love these types of vids thanks for making this!
+XBØYS thanks!
I am so happy you made this video. I love it thanks
Thanks, Timothy!
Merry Christmas John and Happy New Year!
Thanks, Damian! HAPPY NEW YEAR AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!
wow all your videos are amazing john
i started the hobby a year ago and i have learned so much with John, y have fixed 6 dead arcades and monitors myself (got electrocuted twice ) thanks John!
Man, you guys need to set up a corner in that place, let it be darker than the rest of the establishment, and put your hardcore arcade games there. Bring back the nostalgia bro.
This is one of the best videos you've ever made. Please make more at work. :)
Thanks, Dave! Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for sharing this video. I don't have any clue about arcade machines. I am learning through your videos. Thanks again :) happy retro gaming
+MagicFerret69 thanks for watching!
woah 30k subscribers! Congrats Johnny!!
awesome video man!
Always a good time servicing games with Jay and Tim; be well man.
-Mitch
Congrats on 30k subs!
Congrats on 30k subs, John! :)
Congratulations on 30,000 subs!!!
+33kingnaz thanks!
Awesome vid. A lot of work going on. Careful with that deoxit....it wont dry and imo it will attract dust and grime!! Silicon dry spray maybe? Good luck!!!
John, the Arcade looks great!
Such an awesome video to have playing in the background like a podcast while messing with some designing
Thanks for watching!
I love outrun. Seeing this just shows how complicated arcade machine upkeep is.
love these videos
+helixdeslayer thank you! :)
Congradulations on 30k subs John
i love you johns is great what you do i love the arcades
The only thing I don't like about deoxit is it's expensive. Great job, John! I'm happy for you that the bar venture is working out so well. Good love from your wife for the awesome Christmas presents. Thanks and see you next time.
i always get jealous watching your videos, especially the Pacman cabaret one. You got most of my favorite games. I want that NeoGeo!
+Matthew Erdman thanks for watching Matthew!
Outrun is the one arcade game my local pizza parlor had as a kid, loved it there and also on the PC, nice addition for sure!
+Michelle Madison ha. Funny. Awesome game for sure. :)
Hi John, I enjoyed this video, just like all your videos. I own an Arcade location in Southern California and is located inside of an indoor trampoline arena. I have over 30 games and I service every one of them. Coins mech's can be a pain sometimes, lately I have been replacing the coins mech's with new ones to maximize profits. I have also been adding dollar bill acceptors to my games to increase profits as well. Great episode once again John, keep it up!
Thanks! I am getting some validators for my pins. Think it will help?
Definitely John, will increase your profits by 40%. You have to think, not that many people carry change and rather use dollar bills to play. If you move forward with bill acceptors that will be a great choice for your barcade 👍
That arcade is so badass! I want to visit it so bad.
the de-oxidant is the best i had a pin ball that was reseting every once in a while and i thought i was going to have to re do the five volt circuit but all it was is the edge connectors needed to be cleaned !!
The life and times of a coin op guy hehe ;) nice
Woohoo new video!!!
Thank you
23:13 LOL
Need to get some graphite for those coin mechs. I used to use it on my vending machines. Itsthe same stuff you put in door locks when your keys get tuff to get in and out. Get it from any hardware store
Hi John.
I had the same problems With the coin mechs and I found that the adjustment for the width and thickness of the coin mech settings were difficult to fine adjust, but once its dialed in, you just tighten everything up and you should be good to go.
it will take time but you will get it down to a fine art :)
Woot new video. That bar needs an Ice Cold Beer. And a Sports bar needs a Track and Field as well.
I know, I'd love Ice Cold Beer but I'm not sure about putting mine on location.
Yay You Got 30,000 Subs John! Congratulations!
And Then You Read The Last Viewer Mail From Me! Holy Cow! Thanks!
+Mario TV Thanks! We did it good luck with your Pac. :)

Happy new year
30k. Way to go bro
Thanks!
Congrats to you all. Nice work. Just need a changer for your waist. Keep up the great work.
Ha. No change on the waist. LOL! Thanks for watching!
Maybe useful for you guys, when my dad was an operator they had -at large locations lke yours- in 1 or 2 cabs a lot of parts and tools in boxes stapled to the inside of the cabs. microswitches, fuses, lamps, tie wraps, screwdrivers, soldering iron and pliers etc.
+The Kong I like that idea.
Cool to see the life of an arcade operator, don't see those guys around too much now a days. I find a lot of arcades in the wild just get played until they are barely playable anymore especially pinball machines.
Thanks, Riz!
Nice! Jon, I was just saying after watching your last video that you needed a beat-em-up and some puzzle games (i.e. Puzzle Bobble) - a sports game (also in the neo geo). This is really going in the right direction.
Pubs are weird places. You need those social games like the beat-em-ups but there are regulars who live at the pub and just need to get obsessed with and enjoy a single-player like Pac Man or a puzzle game. That's my view. Liking the way this is shaping up!
What about the Golden Tee and the Big Buck Hunter I see in there? Staples already provided by another operator? You guys are making money I think. Buying up an over-priced turtles so quickly. Good for you.
Ooo I like the panthers
Renegade and Bump n Jump would be awesome editions to the barcade 👍
very enjoyable and interesting vid, thx John, congrats on 30k and best wishes for 2017
+Woody Piano Shack thanks, Woody! Happy New Year.
truck yea looks like I need some popcorn lol
well time to go to bed great video john!
John get a final fight.
John's Arcade: Brought to you by DeoxIT. :)
Nice job guys!
The stuff is a miracle!
Ribbed side is the neutral.
The smooth side is the hot.
Lamp cord has a smooth side and a ribbed side.
Smooth is hot grooved is not lol
NEOGEO needs Windjammers.
juntistik neogeo
agreed
Another great video john appreciate the hardwork you put in for the hobby. Are you gonna put up the Hong Kong arcade video anytime soon?
+33kingnaz yes. Soon. Need time
I had to watch the Blues Brothers again when I heard about Carrie, then her mother dies on the next day.
Happy new year John! I'm excited for the 2016 year end review, is it nearly here? :-)
+RWL2012 working on it now. Maybe tomorrow or Tuesday

John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech can barely wait 😃
Man wish i had this place near me
In the UK, we sadly don't have any decent arcades like this anymore :( not that I know of anyway.
just the Arcade Clubs in Northern England probably
34:32 Could try printing the repros on overhead projector film, then maybe get a very thin white paper on the back as a diffuser.
edit: Huh, the repro looks way better on camera. Makes sense though, the original is letting through a lot more light and it's messing with the camera.
That said, if they're all repros they'll all match.
Ever thought about getting a Daytona Usa? would do well in arcade.
Are those the original Neo Geo marquee lights or some sort of new ones? Looking for a set for my 4-slot.

What are the good kind of micro switches to get?
You should have just kept the light fixture in there, replaced the ballast and sockets.. Home Depot I believe sells those parts.. That light fixture is just as old as the game..
great video john i got every intentions of heading down to the hanger when i get paid next week i hear that turtles,mk2,umk3 and double dragon calling my name.i also got a kool idea for ya seeing how you got johns arcade t-shirts and mugs and ect ect have you every thought about doin a johns arcade fleece blanket thatd be totally kool let me know what you think
Ha, blankets would be cool.
Re watching:
2 hours and I didn't even get bored. Can't say that for half the movies I've seen this year. If I was going to compare this 2 hour show to a movie say for entertainment value, I'd venture to say this video is almost up there with Star Wars Rogue one. Later!!!
+Tyler “Tyler Ko” Erus lol. Awesome. Thanks!
I don't mean to be mean ..I speak for all of us we just miss you bro
Maybe it's nervous laughter?
Garou: Mark of the Wolves for the fighter. Maybe it's not popular? I don't know, but it's awesome. I think Metal Slug 3 is the best of those (Metal Slug X is close), but I guess the original is good enough.
But, now that I see Last Blade, it looks pretty good, too.
Cause I’ve had a bad day!!!❤️❤️❤️
Great video! You guys don't have a Mr. Do in the line-up do you?
For the Kid looking for the pacman machine there is a guy in Dublin that sells a lot of candy cabs and other stuff could be your best bet. have a look on donedeal.ie
he usually has an advert on there
I'm curious, how do you work the electric bill with the bar owner?
Usually the store owner covers it.
Have you considered in the future replacing the Marquee lights for John & Jays with LED's? I got LED Strips for my Mame Cab and it works great. Just a idea.
+cwgraham I dunno. Not a fan
I saw Bust A Move still corrupted, when you put the machine in its place and you was crouching checking the insert coin.
+Micky999 we fixed it later. Deoxit
Livin the dream John, Games Id like to see what do you think? Tron, Pac Land, Paperboy, Point Blank, Chopperlift, Airwolf, jees could go on forever. I think those would be good earners. Whats the general age group in there? It looks pretty mixed from your vids.
your journey has monitor problems again
Time to buy stock in Deoxit.
52:55 Carrie Fisher died during the filming of this video. I missed it the 1st time around
That means get back out to the garage ...lol
So I'm just "a guy in the forum" who had the 3d files for the gears huh!?! Timmy!!!!
Spanish coin-mec from Industrias Lorenzo :)
How much are these games set for ? Are they $1, or .50 cents, or still a quarter ?
I have those junk buttons on my Bottom of the Ninth base ball game. I agree they suck. stick all the time. swapped out with new ones.
Great video! Just Subscribed to Tim's channel. He has got a lot of cool videos. Does Jay have a channel?
Awesome! Jay does not have a channel
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech Bummer.
Thanks!
Im kinda surprised TH-cam didnt take this down for the clearly audible meghan Trainor music in the beginning
I think Mok did the plans for the gear ...............................he originally did it for his outrun.
Unless its a hobby to be out of the house :) I wonder if you will ever make money there. 3 guys at work for a full day plus spare parts? That should be a lot of quarters :) The bar owner will make money, because he will get more people coming in spending money on beer.
The Kong you have game
America is lucky on the arcade culture.
Is that ranch dressing on the floor or are you just happy to see me
Where did the red DK come from at the Hangar? It looks like you still have your DK in the basement. Does the Hangar DK have a high score kit?
The RED DK actually was originally mine. I traded Jay the cabinet for my Pole Position. And, well.. now it's at the Hangar. :)
Turtles. Great game. Hilariously bad marquee / side art. LOL. Live action April with her hand-held camera.
Congrats on 30K subs.
Might consider putting that one football game in the Neo Geo, maybe replace the fighting game as more people will probably play Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat. Just a thought. 😃👍
+TheManofDew not a bad thought. I have the Neo GEO football game cart.
I love video games I'm a living nerd
hey john.... i haven't heard you mention the super chexx hockey game in the back. what do you think of them?
I think they are super cool. I used to play that thing a lot a long time ago. GREAT game!
30:40 john the red joystick does not have a dust cover
the Punch Out looks awesome...
Super cool game for sure!
hey john did u see the British guy visited TNT Amusements with your tshirt on todd reacted lol. u should go there. its that ultimate fan video
+Andreas oh really? Lol. Cool.
What happened to the monitor in Journey? Collapse?
Think so. Cold solder joint maybe. I'll fix tomorrow I think.
