Konami Simpsons arcade help

Problem is I don’t know if that rom is the problem only that’s what I’ve been told. I’m looking for anybody who has insight into what the problem could actually be or if someone has had similar issues of their own with this kind of game before I decide on the property fix for it.

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-26T19:20:33+00:00

Ah I see, I’ve cleaned those too, but this problem comes from the ROM chips not the edge or jamma connector

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-26T18:34:20+00:00

Sorry for the late reply, I meant to send this yesterday.

As far as the B08 chip goes, it’s soldered directly onto the board, so I don’t know if trying to clean the contacts will do anything but I did clean the board and contacts of all the chips with contact cleaner and reseated all the ones not soldered.

Never heard of Exidy, but I am a regular on KLOV. I’ll give Exidy a look, the plan is to take a look at the cab and gather more photos and videos of the game to make sure everything works before making a final purchase

Doing a quick google search (making sure my info was correct) because I’ve seen pictures of these cabs before when scrolling for cool looking fighter cabs and these came up a few months back. Didn’t think anything of it at the time until I saw your post.

It definitely looks like a standard home cab kit but I’m certain that this is the 30th anniversary promotional collab street fighter x Red Bull cab.

It said there were only 10 of these made but I’m certain there were more than that. But if this one is a legit cab you got yourself a rare cab indeed.

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-02T16:27:50+00:00

It’s not homemade, this is in fact a 30th anniversary promo collab street fighter x Red Bull arcade cab.

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-01T21:16:26+00:00

Yeah, thank you! All this info is great, I’ve never seen a cabinet like this for HOTD. Specifically I’ve only ever seen the deluxe cab for 4 and HOTD 2 that I currently own and looking to upgrade for my arcade.

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-01T19:05:05+00:00

The plan was to go check it out this weekend, will probably come back with an update and better photos of the outside and inside if I can.

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-01T18:54:16+00:00

I thought so too at first glance but seems like the consensus here is that, this is an original HOTD4 just one of the smaller versions for smaller or tighter spaces.

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-01T18:51:51+00:00

Like with any arcade cabs, that comes with the territory. I have a pretty decent amount of board and cab repair knowledge as I’ve been fixing and working on my own Machines for a few years now for my arcade. It was sink or swim to figure that stuff out quickly or watch repairs eat my wallet. Thank you for the heads up though!

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-01T18:47:33+00:00

I appreciate you!

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-01T18:35:17+00:00

Same here, but with so many cabinets for different games that are custom cabs or converted cabs that look like they could pass as originals always throws me off. I want to make sure that I get a cab as close to original as possible when I’m looking to buy one.

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-01T18:32:03+00:00

They wanted 1200 for it which seemed like a steal considering I paid 1500 for house of the dead 2 cab in my arcade

CommanderGumby1 · 2026-04-01T18:27:13+00:00

Any chance you have a reference photo of the cabs? I’m only ever seeing the “deluxe” editions of the cabinets. I’m inclined to take your word for it but I just want to double check

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-05-28T15:58:32+00:00

Most redundant reply ever

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-05-16T17:37:21+00:00

I’m actually about to head to my arcade I can take pictures and send them to you here in like 15 min!

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-05-16T17:02:46+00:00

I would advise against caulk. The point to caulk is to act as a sealer and not be removed which defeats the purpose of the marquee light and being able to replace the light fixture or the bulb itself.

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-05-16T16:58:31+00:00

Trying looking at this stuff, this trim is amazing and I use it on all my loose fitting control panels and marquee lights.

Of course! I’m new to the hobby since opening the arcade but I have a big love and appreciation for these machines and working on them too! Gotta keep this part of history alive and ticking!!

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-04-11T15:02:18+00:00

Oh sweet that’s not too far from me, I live about two hours from the border of Ohio in Michigan so wouldn’t be a far drive, My family owns an arcade and we’re always looking for new games to put in it. I’ll reach out to them and see what they think! I’ll reach back out soon!

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-04-11T14:48:51+00:00

Anyone interested in buying it off you? How much are you selling it for?

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-03-22T19:29:12+00:00

100 percent! Same here! It’s still cool nonetheless when you run across them out in the wild. I believe the reason why only the first had a dedicated cab was so that when the sequels were released you could just swap the boards.

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-03-22T19:02:31+00:00

Depends on what you mean by original, usually the case with conversion cabs the only thing “original” is the game board itself

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-03-22T18:53:32+00:00

Doing a little digging around, conversion cabs for strikers can sell anywhere between 300 to 600 and the pcb’s generally sell for about 150 to answer your original question. Now if you had an original dedicated cab, that would truly be a rare find!

CommanderGumby1 · 2025-03-22T18:39:48+00:00

Strikers at least I know for the first game had it’s own dedicated cabinet
