Breathing New Life into Arcade Classics: A Mortal Kombat 4 Restoration Project

In a surprising turn of events, I recently inherited a collection of items from my wife’s late uncle, who had a passion for gaming. His family entrusted these artifacts to me due to my familiarity with technology, but I had no idea what I was stepping into!

Upon examining the items more closely, I discovered that I had come into possession of various components from an arcade unit, specifically parts related to Mortal Kombat 4—a classic title that holds a special place in the hearts of many gamers, including my own.

Now, I find myself faced with an exciting challenge: how do I reassemble these pieces into a functional arcade machine? While I may have some technical know-how, the intricacies of arcade restoration are somewhat uncharted territory for me.

To the gaming community out there, I’m reaching out for guidance. If anyone has experience in rebuilding or restoring arcade units, I would greatly appreciate your insights. Additionally, I can provide more photographs of the components if it would help in identifying what I have to work with.

Restoring this piece of gaming history could be an incredible journey, and I’m eager to dive in! Stay tuned for updates as I navigate this exciting project.
