Original 1980 Atari Centipede game.

The monitor for the game is very burnt screen, and color is bad.
Is there a flat screen monitor that I can use to replace the old monitor. I'm not interested in resale, as I do not plan top get rid of it, I do plan to keep the old monitor and if cost effective may rebuild it. Right now I want to play the game but it''s just not fun with the screen the way it is. The cabinet etc, are in near mint condition.

Dan,

Here are two sites which are geared more towards the video game side of the hobby:

forum.arcadecontrols.com/

and

forums.arcade-museum.com/

Both have sub-forums dedicated to repair / rework of displays used in arcade cabinets and the like.


Regards,

Wish I had seen this when it was posted. I have restored a few arcade games and EM pinballs over the last few years.
