[@chromxrobinandcorrinxcamil9031]

So glad to see this legendary machine restored to life.

Thanks for watching!

[@LyonsArcade]

I have so many videos you've never seen you wouldn't even believe it

[@AerinRavage]

6:36 Am I the only one who immediately saw a blue frog when you tested the 6.8 uuf cap? Perfect curly frog legs!

[@LyonsArcade]

I can see it!

[@frankgagliano9677]

Great Fix on the sound board. Love the bench that is really cool. Gorgar still speaks. See you on the next video.

[@themilkmanv]

Oh come on Ron. You know we live to hear . MICRO FARAD!

[@theodorethompson9032]

pico farad

[@derofromdown-under2832]

An excellent find with that tantalum cap being shorted. I take it that the reorientation of those reversed IC's worked OK and were not fried? Great job on the repair Ron... WELL DONE!!! 10/10

[@LyonsArcade]

They ended up working just fine when I put them back, I think because the Z80 doesn't get anything but 5v if you reverse it it's able to tolerate it. You're sending the clock signal somewhere weird but nothing gets overvoltage....

[@NeedlessJ93]

Great video, thanks Ron. I always enjoyed it on the Atari 2600, my all time favorite music.

[@mcostafernando]

Great game, great fix, and great uffs! Played Frogger A LOT in the Atari 2600! Cheers!

[@LyonsArcade]

Thank you Ferando, it's a real classic!

[@MasatoKay]

Love these sprinklings of arcade games. Takes me back to my soldering and assembly days

[@arcadefussell3185]

God Father's Pizza in Gresham Oregon had a Frogger back in the day. Very fond memories of that place and playing Frogger there in 1980 something! I just call it "UF". That's Cool! Thanks for the video Ron! Very cool fix!

[@robertlatham8657]

Another fun and informative video. More pls.

[@Nighthawke70]

I had the Sierra port for the venerable Commodore 64. I used a WICO Command and Control ball bat stick. I had it down to a fine art of hopping thru traffic, but those dunking turtles I had to watch out for.

[@charlesmalone114]

I have a frogger that has a bad circuit board, anyway I can send it to you for repair? Was having the same problem, no sound. Now the monitor is not coming on. Looks like it has transformer that has melted and corrupted the board. I would really appreciate the help!

[@GrandTheftWatto]

The sound is the best part!!

[@LyonsArcade]

It sure is!

[@hortonp1000]

Ron, just say uF. You are the man!

[@LyonsArcade]

Thank you Paul, but how can I possibly be the man, if YOU'RE the man? I mean we can't both be the man. Thanks for watching man!

[@allrock1238]

Modern Re-releases of Frogger have all run into Copyright issues with the games original music and are forced to alter the games soundtrack because of this. Sega/Konami used the pieces of copyrighted music without licencing them . the first tune for example was taken from the Japanese children's song " Inu no Omawari san" or " The Dog Policeman" kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3fFZHqnmqiNaKc its just not frogger without the original music .. Arcade 1up's release is one core example of this issue ..

[@eddievanbasten1751]

Chips are usually orientated all the same way during manufacture, at least they were when i was a PCB builder. The indent printed on the PCB is there for a reason too.

[@LyonsArcade]

You're telling me exactly what I said on the video. Very strange phenomenon.

[@video-games305]

I love this music for frogger

Is it okay if I borrow “Says uF right on it”?

[@Escylon]

Were you able to use the same chips or did you have to replace them because they were dead?

[@LyonsArcade]

They were still fine luckily!

[@andymcdandycdn6808]

Hello guys, can the reset line on the sub-logic pcb keep the reset line on the main pcb stuck? Mine is stuck in reset and every chip on the main pcb along the reset line is coming back good.

[@KingWilliam]

What a great game. Now I have to fire up Mame and give it a play................

[@LyonsArcade]

It's pretty fun!

[@DAVIDGREGORYKERR]

I have that game but is called MTX TOADO for a MTX512 computer and the unit is kapoot as the VDP overheated which resulted in the CPU overheating.

[@LyonsArcade]

David you should do a video of some of your computers, you've got a lot of neat stuff!!!

[@DAVIDGREGORYKERR]

@@LyonsArcade Sorry the MTX512 is no longer around as the unit was unusable once the VDP+CPU went kapoot and I no longer have the AMSTRAD PC1512 as that was taken to the dump as it was taking space in the roofspace.

[@senilyDeluxe]

13:23 sounds like Frogger would have sounded in the early 90s on a Sega Genesis. Lol another one rides the bus - sadly Weird Al is almost unknown in Germany...

I'll bet they know him in Poland where POLKA IS KING

You can jump into the home when the alligator is at the first phase of the "animation". Just not the 2nd and final one.

[@anthonydenn4345]

Nice fix. You know all the cool techie types, like Dave Jones, say mics instead of microfarads.

[@NivagSwerdna]

I like "Ufs"; sounds friendly. I'm sure people used to call pF... puffs.... sounds reasonable to me.

[@LyonsArcade]

Some of the cool techie types say UF's

[@memyopinionsche6610]

So why did the frogger cross the road? He seen what the chicken was doing and thought it looked like it was fun. But he did realize there was a river on the other side. So now he's salty against the chicken. By vowing revenge by calling his personal friend. COLONEL SANDERS. And getting that chicken deep fried.

[@LyonsArcade]

That could be a movie!

[@krnlg]

Big Clive sneaks in a "Micro Fart" every now and again. :)

The "µ" looks like a "u," but I like to think of it as a "micro-case" "m." 😁

You can ride on the alligator's back all you want, you just have to avoid the mouth.

[@101fng]

The pedantic types might get wrapped around the axel with the uF thing, but you know damn well they use “u” when trying to type a mu. Half of them probably couldn’t describe Ohm’s Law.

[@waynegram8907]

JOES CLASSIC, why is the "wattage" of the volume pot rated for 10watts to 50watts? its unusual to find a volume pot that is rated power handling for 10watts to 50watts, not sure why arcade games want volume pots rated power handling like this

[@scottgm321]

That left opening was always my weak spot, I was never good at the game. I wasn’t good at many of the games come to think of it. The arcade I go to has Frogger and I play it just to see if I get any better. Nope.

[@LyonsArcade]

I figured out recently apparently on the home version you can ride around the side, lol On the arcade though it kills you... .

[@fred_derf]

The trick with the left cave is to go for it first, if you run into difficulty you can always change plans and use another cave. That way you're not stuck with the left cave being your only option.

mfd: milliFarad uf: microFarad Confusion comes from companies that put mF instead of uF or µF for microfarad. I think the anger lives on?
