Keeping video machines running is child's play - it's just discrete electronics. The worst part is connectors and power supplies, what with the capacitors that dry out over 20 years. It's keeping pinball machines running that is a true challenge. I only have five of my nine games playable right now, and two of those have small problems that don't effect game play but the games themselves aren't 100%. Something about a steel ball hurling around and coils firing seems to cause all kinds of breakage on 20-30 year old games only designed to last 5 years.
