![]() We even provide a warranty that matches the original manufacturer warranty! Because we know these machines inside and out, we are able to sell and ship them all over the country and offer technical support right over the phone when needed. We only put an original part back into a machine if it works like new.no exceptions. As we re-assemble the machine, we typically end up replacing most of the original components (hard drive, power supply, cooling fans, etc.) and service others (motherboard, display). We begin to clean the machine at this point, removing years of accumulated dust, stains, and odor. We go above and beyond with every Megatouch by taking it apart piece by piece until we are down to the bare frame. Megatouch games are our specialty, and are a prime example of being like modern appliances in that they "just don't build them like they used to." There are many different cabinet models in the Megatouch line-up, each with their own specific issues, but every Megatouch has common parts that WILL fail. We then refurbish/prepare the machine as described below so that when we offer the machine for sale, we know that it is ready for a long life of operation.sometimes just as much as when it was sold new! Through our connections with operators and distributors along the east coast, we are able to hand pick machines that we evaluate as having "good bones" (good cabinet, no "hack work".). More modern arcade/bar equipment, similar to modern appliances, usually aren't built to last most operators know this and are therefore wary to buy a machine that could quickly become a headache and/or a large paperweight. Sometimes there are other factors at play to determine when or why, but eventually the operator needs to sell a machine (usually "dumping" it at an auction) and put that money towards newer equipment.īut a used machine is a risky investment compared to when it was new the ultimate reality is that the equipment has probably been abused in its 2-10 years of commercial service, probably hasn't been maintained as necessary, and is no longer under any sort of warranty. Operators place the games in restaurants, bars, stores and arcades and hope that the game pays for itself and turns a profit before age and wear makes the game too costly to maintain and operate. Manufacturers make new games, and distributors sell or lease them to operators. Our business model and role in the industry is fairly simple. We are a proud example of a small business that thrives against the tide of the economy and industry, by remaining efficient, ethical, and pursuent to the needs of our customers. Since then, Jesters Amusements LLC has continued to see an increase in sales (over 80% of which are shipped) each quarter with hardly any advertising. In November, 2009, Jesters Amusements LLC had a huge reduction in overhead costs with the closing of our showroom. What started as a fascination in arcade games has quickly developed over 10 years into a business that Ryan hopes will spread better equipment, knowledge, and ethics into an industry that is often labeled "dead." While the other coin-operated/amusement businesses have been going out of business - defaulting on loans and customer promises, and leaving their giant warehouses to Sherrif Sales - Ryan has kept his business small and manageable. Jesters Amusements LLC is owned and primarily operated by Ryan Miller in Cochranville, PA. You may find a similar item elsewhere for less, but you will not find the same quality, value, knowledge and support that we have to offer. ![]() Our Megatouch games go through an unparalled refurbishing process and are backed by a 1-YEAR WARRANTY. We sell only equipment for which we can provide knowledgeable technical support. We specialize in countertop/touchscreen games by Merit Industries and JVL, video games by Incredible Technologies (Golden Tee, Silver Strike Bowling, Big Buck Hunter, etc.), Midway (Hydro Thunder, Arctic Thunder, Killer Instinct, Mortal Kombat), GlobalVR, SEGA, Namco, Konami and ICE (Chexx Bubble Hockey), pinball machines by Williams, Bally and Stern, and various other equipment and associated parts.

We fill the gap between motivated buyers and high quality amusement equipment. We are Jesters Amusements LLC, a Megatouch refurbishing company and coin-operated equipment dealer.

We are not a consigner for items that we know nothing about.
