Could be the manufacturer doesn't/can't make spare parts for them except at egregious prices. A lot of arcade machines to get spare parts you have to scrounge eBay because the manufacturer went out of business or doesn't have the part needed in stock.

Yeah, Ralph makes a new track which causes the player to freak-out and destroy the steering wheel, which the arcade owner just shrugs and says "guess I gotta buy a new one oh wait it's too expensive, I'll just unplug the game" IIRC, anyway, it's been a year. My kid loves it tho!

I was an arcade/pinball tech for 7 years. The scary part of that cabinet is not the game, but the number of people who try to get it on in there. The walking dead version is even worse, because it just has a bench. Go to at least a car for loving, people, there’s more room there.

I mean who doesn't want to get it on while pixilated zombies watch you. Just the ultimate aphrodisiac right there.

No D&D: Mystara, no Soul Calibur, no House of the Dead 2. No at best you maybe get Area 51 and Crusin' World. The arcade I used to work in had a mix of common and rare cabinets. Most of the really common ones were multi-game cabs like Pandora's Box or everything Namco ever made, or the cocktail machines running Raspberry Pi emulators that had all the classics like Pac-Man, DigDug, Galaga, Gyruss etc... But we had some rarities like original Dragon's Lair, Battlezone, and SmashTV. The problem is exactly that; the rare stuff is exceedingly difficult to find parts for, so when it gets broken it's out of commission for a longer time or permanently, and some generic mass-produced emulator bullshit from the dickhead owner's warehouse goes in its place. It was a sad day when we removed the two linked Maximum Tune racing cabinets, and replaced them with brand-new MarioKart cabs. MarioKart. A game already for children, watered down even further for the arcade version. Dumbass drunk adults loved it, though, and I had to break up at least one fistfight over it. loving MarioKart.

The first 3d printed working LED was made in 2014. 3d printing electronics is possible, but obviously it's at its infancy, we don't know if it will ever become a practical alternative, and this doesn't mean that you can just print any electronics, including spare parts for a 1990's arcade machine. 2d printed electronics are actually a really old thing so it's not surprising that 3d printing could be used for this, but there's still a lot to do before it's any use.

Isn't 2D electronics printing technically 3D, and just very thin layers? Also, that is a valid correction

All printing is 3d, as our world has 3 spacial dimensions.
