Hi! I have several Galaga arcade video games available for sale. The prices range based upon the condition of the cabinet and the condition of the artwork.
For a reasonable price, I can make any Galaga look quite acceptable for home or commercial use.
Or, I can make a Galaga look factory new.
Or, I can turn a Galaga into a classics multicade.
Or, I can do both - a completely restored Galaga multicade.
And, if you own a Galaga, I can upgrade your cabinet into a Galaga multicade.
See below for all the details. If you need more info, just send me an email: gameroomdude@yahoo.com
------------------------------------------
Here are nine Galaga purchase options:
Original Galaga game only, not a multicade -
1. For example, the Galaga in the photo has not yet gone through my make ready process - new paint, new t-molding, cleaning, polishing, and new control panel overlay. But, when finished it will look almost like new, and be priced at $895.
2. A Galaga in lesser condition (e.g., no front and side art, and with original control panel overlay) would be priced for less. As low as $795.
3. However, a Galaga in any condition can be fully restored, and have the old sides, front, and control panel art removed and replaced with brand new art.
In that case, the game would look like brand new, and be priced at $995.
This is a photo of a Galaga that is being fully restored. At time of photo, it has been sanded, filled, and painted. The T-molding has been replaced. And, the side and front art, and control panel overlay have been replaced.
Galaga upgraded into an iCade 60-in-1 multicade -
4. Or, a Galaga can be upgraded into 60 classic games in one - a multicade (but, the art not restored). Then, instead of playing only Galaga, you would be able to play dozens of your favorite classics for only $1,095 without trackball, and $1,195 with trackball.
5. Any Galaga can be restored to look like a brand new game (all new artwork), be upgraded into a multicade to play dozens of classics, and be priced at only $1,295 without trackball, and $1,395 with trackball.
This is a photo of a Galaga that has been fully restored with all new graphics, and has been upgraded into a 60-in-1 multicade with a trackball. So, the price of this game is $1,395.
Here is what Bob A., the new owner, had to say about his new Galaga multicade -
"Game arrived intact and is now safely in it's new home. Very satisfied with the results. It is authentic, cant ask for more than that. I've been busy setting all my high scores from my high school days, lol. Thank you very much for a fine machine and the great memories it brings back. It will be a big hit in my small town."
Generic cabinet Galaga multicade -
6. If you do not particularly want the original Galaga cabinet (and want to save the extra cost of a dedicated cabinet), then you might like this option - a generic upright cabinet.
A generic cabinet features more control panel "elbow room" and a more upright monitor than a dedicated Midway (Galaga) cabinet. For multicade purposes, these are nice features to have.
A generic cabinet can be upgraded into an iCade 60-in-1 multicade (that plays Galaga and dozens more), features a trackball, and new Galaga marquee, monitor bezel and control panel overlay for only $1,195, or $1,095 without trackball.
Add $150 if you would like to include the Galaga front kick and side art.
Here is what Chris L., the new owner, had to say about his new generic Galaga multicade -
"Picked up the Galaga arcade game on Friday. Box turned out great."
The ultimate Galaga multicade -
7. Here is a photo of an ultimate Galaga 60-in-1 multicade, featuring:
- All new artwork - sides, front, control panel, marquee and bezel,
- New 4-way joystick,
- All new control and start buttons, and switches,
- New trackball,
- New Lexan kick plate, and
- The original 2-way joystick. Total - $1,460.
Here is what Byron M., the new owner, had to say about his new ultimate Galaga multicade -
"We have received the game and are very satisfied. Thank you for doing such a nice job."
For the Galaga purist -
8. Say you are a Galaga purist - you want to play all the Galaga series of games (see the iCade games list), but you do not want the control panel altered from its original appearance. No problem.
We can turn off all the other games, except for the Galaga series of games. Mission accomplished. Best of all, there is no charge for this option.
A brand new Galaga multicade, from the ground up -
9. Would you prefer a brand new, rather than a refurbished, Galaga multicade? No problem. We can build a brand new Galaga cabinet made of all new wood.
This is a photo of a brand new cabinet sporting a fresh coat of primer. Click here to read about our exclusive cabinet preparation, finishing, and graphics application techniques.
Better than the original's fiberboard, our cabinet features sides made of super durable 3/4" plywood. Inch for inch, our cabinet is an identical replica of the 30 year old original. But, our cabinet is made of better materials and made stronger than the original.
Our brand new cabinet, with all new artwork and all new electronics, is an absolutely stunning showpiece. It is truly one of a kind. There is nothing else like it in the world. No brag. Just fact.
Here is what is included in our brand new Galaga multicade:
- All new artwork - both sides, front, control panel, marquee and bezel,
- All new wood construction with 3/4" plywood sides,
- New 4-way joystick with red ball top,
- All new control and start buttons with your choice of colors,
- All new switches, wiring harness, and power supply,
- New trackball,
- New Lexan kick plate,
- An original Galaga 2-way joystick in its original control panel location,
- An original refinished Midway coin door,
- New 18-1/2" LCD/LED monitor,
- Side mounted pinball buttons for playing Pinball Action,
- Rubber wheels rather than steel casters,
- New black textured T-molding just like an original Galage cabinet, and
- New black powder coated control panel.
There is no better multicade and there is no better price on the planet - $1,995.
By the way, our brand new Galaga multicade is priced near $1,000 less than the original of 30 years ago. Plus, our sweetheart features superior construction, superior hardware, superior electronics, superior technology, a superior monitor, and 60 (not just one) games. Go figure.
Additional Galaga Joystick Option:
When you order a Galaga multicade, you are given the option of keeping the original Galaga controller on the control panel (along with the new 4-way joystick).
This photo is an example of keeping the old and adding a new joystick. Keep in mind, that having both type of joysticks does not eliminate the possibility of also having a trackball. Click the photo for a larger view.
Having the original 2-way joystick means that when you play the game of Galaga on your multicade, your feel of the game is exactly as if you were playing on a dedicated original Galaga.
Which, by the way, is the same feel as for two other classics that are also included in the 60-in-1 multicade - Galaxian and Space Invaders.
The original joystick will be tightened up and the leaf-switch contacts cleaned and polished. The cost for this additional option is only $65.
Photos of a Galaga restoration in process (right), and when completed (left):
When an arcade video game cabinet has been properly prepared, like the cabinet on the right: a new graphics application will look much like the front kick and side art in the photo on the left - permanent and perfect.
If you have purchased one of our fully restored custom multicades, then you can rest assured that your game is going to look fantastic.
