“I’m gonna wreck it!”

Wreck it Ralph’s “Fix It Felix Jnr”
- from a tired Nintendo Mario Bros cabinet.

Had this old Nintendo Mario Bros for years in storage. Time to do something with it as Mario Bros isn’t the best classic Nintendo game imo, plus needed a lot of work to bring back to life. Board and monitor both needed work. So, we decided to convert it to a Fix It Felix Jnr as we’ve been asked a few times if we have one…. We do now!

Turned out very nice and plays awesome. Using an original Nintendo joystick from the original control panel, set to 4 way, a bit of repair to the cabinet inc a new bottom. Full paint job, side stickers and everything else to change the game over. All metal work repainted. New t-moulding trimmed to fit Nintendos off set t-moulding slot (no idea why they did that 🫤)

What a great game too. Very addictive.

Ready to be played at our next event, here…

1982 Ms Pac-Man arcade machine full restoration- before & after.

Completely restored to its 1980’s glory. Came from the US a few year ago and was a complete rot box. Had been stood in water. All bottom completely rotten. Original plan was to restore and re-paint artwork by hand but woodwork was so bad there wasn’t much left after bodywork was done.

Compete strip. All rot cut out and replaced inc new bottom. Full paint in and out inc all metal work resprayed. New artwork, screen bezel, control panel overlay, joystick and buttons rebuilt. New back door.
All electrics gone through inc new fuse carriers.
Monitor rebuilt inc all caps, reflow, new flyback and filter cap.
Not turned out bad 👍

Next challenge…. Going to try and save this 1981 Ms Pac-Man. In a sorry state and in need of full restoration. 😢
Needs a new floor, new bezel, new control panel overlay, a ton of woodwork and a full paint job. The plan is to re paint the whole cab and not to use any side art stickers…. That’s too easy lol.

…anyone got any blue, yellow and pink paint? 🤣

Watch this space.

We literally have had hundreds of happy customers over the years, all over the UK, and never a bad word from any of them. But our page rarely, if ever shows up on Google. This then gets overlooked unfortunately. Some reviews to boost our website on Google would help hugely.
Massive thanks. You are awesome.

Before and after - 1986 Rampage Arcade Machine restoration.
Came from USA as a rough and tatty cabinet and needed rescuing. It had been converted to a different game in the past, Combatribes. But nope… it needs to be a Rampage once again!

Fully stripped, painted, rebuilt, new stickers, marquee sign, screen bezel and put back to a Rampage. One of sides was rotten at the bottom so it had to be cut out and replaced. Cabinet corners had to be reworked as they were crumbling. All metal work repainted as everything was covered in rust, even the joysticks.
Took forever but needed to be done right. Now looks like new. An epic 80’s 3 player game that’s loads of fun!
