I now have a refurbished Sky Shark arcade game for sale. This is another hit game from Romstar that came out in 1987. I’m quite a fan of Romstar’s conversion stuff from the 80′s including Gunsmoke, Time Soldiers, Tiger-Heli, Twin Cobra, and Arkanoid. This game comes in a converted Pac-Man cabinet with the original marquee, bezel, control panel overlay, and button stickers in great shape. In addition to Sky Shark, this arcade game has been upgraded to play 48 classic arcade games in one cabinet. You can play all your favorite games like Donkey Kong, Dig Dug, Frogger, Ms. Pac Man, Qix, Bomb Jack, 1942, Galaga, and many more. Email me for a complete list of games. I have done several things to make this unit look and play nice:
- Totally rebuilt GO7 monitor chassis (replaced the high voltage flyback, the horizontal output transistor, new fuses, and all capacitors for superior colors and performance that will last years to come)
- New White Paint
- New Blue T-molding
- Cleaned original Wico balltop leaf joystick (trust me, this is a selling point – all other joysticks pale in comparison)
- New Marquee lights
All this can be yours, if the price is right! Well, actually, I’m asking $765 for it on craigslist, but we all know that is negotioable, right?! If you’re in the Atlanta area, shoot me an email if you’re interested…

I have an old skyshark in my garage and I would like to refurbish mine to look like yours. Nice work! Can you outline steps you took to convert the game to play 48 arcade games and the general restoration process? If I lived closer I would buy yours.
Thanks,

I know this is bribing up an old topic, but do you. have any idea as to where I would find the brawl artwork? Even a scan would be great. Thanks.
