Another win for Team Caravella! I'd pay another twenty for more Vinny, or even just The WM staff trying to fix their arcade machines and playing with death.

The guts of that thing looks absolutely frightening. And you say fatal electric shock is lurking around every corner? Man, is there any safe way to operate on that thing without sticking your naked hand into the circuit boards?

Yep, this is the stuff I want to keep seeing from GB. Jar Time, that long-ass Daggerfall video, and now this. Even more reasons to frequent the site.

As long as you unplug it, and there is not battery in it you should be fine touching whatever you want inside it.

Naked CRT parts look scary as hell. Like part of some crazy sci-fi beam cannon or something.

That's what you'd think, but some of the capacitors you find in those things can stay charged for hours.

I signed up for a month of premium to try it out and I'm hopefully going to do the year when I get the money. The premium content is becoming more worthwhile. This is a smart way to do it since chances are most casual GB users may not care about videos like this, or Jeff answering some questions. But for me, and I'm sure basically every subscriber it is awesome.

"This one has red in it red" - Vinny points to red and black cable.

"This one doesn't" - Points to all red cable.

Yeah, being color blind probably does hinder being able to just unplug the thing. Next time, maybe get Will Smith to help. He'll teach you to use tape to place your screws on so you don't lose them. He'll accidentally touch the back of the CRT and fry himself. And he has a "No red here" beard.

This is not true. Capacitors can hold charge for quite some time.

Listen to this man, there is still a very real danger after being unplugged.

I would love for the guys to put together more videos about all their old arcade stuff. I find a lot of the part of game history just really interesting and it's something that I can't really get into myself at the moment (maybe in a few years though) so I'd love to see them go through their games, show their work on them, etc.
