But the police trainer is older and whatever they use for body movement, I'm guessing is hard to repair or find parts for?

It's probably just some off-the-shelf sensors used to detect movement. Arcade games don't use proprietary components.
 
Picking this up tomorrow. Movado SE Extreme

The times sure have changed, haven't they? Remember when there was an arcade in just about every neighborhood? I can't even think where there are any traditional arcades aside Pinball Pete's. Dave & Busters, while they do have games, isn't like the arcades from back in the day. I remember the lines behind Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat, when the people in line would put their quarters up at the bottom of the screen.



When I used to restore arcade and pins , I became good friends with a guy who had a huge arcade route, he had all the meijers in the 80-90s , told me he had to empty some games 2-3 times a day because of the play, he still has tons of games , I bought a new in box tron from him years ago. I'm kinda glad I cashed out of the arcade game market before the bottom fell out. The market for pinball machines is still strong, but arcade games is shit. Pinball Petes purchased a few games from be back in the day, owners are tim and ziff, tims retired now and runs the pinball hall of fame in vegas

Never believed the 1911 hype until I shot this. I will surely own more than one eventually.

Didn't pick it up today so going later this week, but what do you mean? I'm getting it from a Movado Factory Store down here. They have a huge sale going. 50% off then 10% off the remainder. Works out to 55% off.
 
My dad did that for me too when I was like 13-14. He spent at least a week I think every night building it in the basement after work. When he was done, I smashed the shit out of it. Maybe that's why he so mean to me now.
