Tron

Bally Midway, 1982

Tron is hard.  The gameplay is not very accessible to new players, especially the light cycle levels, which must be memorized. That said, this is the game that I play the most, and it definitely has the best looking cabinet in my collection.

This tron came from eBay non-working, and was my first real project. I repaired the neck board, found a bad slam switch, swapped the video generator PCB, and repaired the linear power supply (twice). I also put on a new control panel overlay from Phoenix, new joystick plastics from GGG, and refinished the coin door.

I've installed the Pinitech F-RAM to save scores without the battery.
