Need Help Replacing Battery
« on: March 23, 2025, 10:36:40 am »

Update: I was able to figure out where the batteries were and replaced them. I did find youtube videos that may help me clear and set up the machine. Wish me luck.
Jim

I had an error to replace battery on my Bartop Bally Alpha Gamemaker and couldn't find info on where the battery is located or how to replace it so the machine has set for quite a while. Will someone please instruct me on getting the unit back in order. Whatever questions you have about the specifics of the model I can give you, I just need to know what you need.
Thanks in advance, Jim

Nice that you got it figured out! I wanted to ask can you possibly show off your Bartop GameMaker HD? Those things are insanely rare.

Here are some pics before I got it in the cabinet. Unfortunately although I replaced the batteries, I can't locate the clear card that came with it and need to track one down to get it back up and running. I've included a pic of the card.
Thanks for the interest, Jim

Oh nice!!! Seeing those tiny universal buttons feels like discovering an old relic since finding a GameMaker HD button deck loose is hard enough whether it's for upright or cinevision

You can actually run a small handfull of titles with that same button deck too

You have me curious about the rarity. Are there really that few around?
Thanks, Jim

Yours is the first one I've seen posted on this site.  I had only seen those in casinos about 7 years ago, and even then, few of them as most casinos use Gamekings for their video poker machine banks.

Interesting. Thanks for the reply. Glad I pulled the trigger when I saw it on Offer Up.
