Just got my Tetris back up and running after the MPU failed, £40 for another one (which is what I paid for the machine in the first place) and its back up.

Plays alot better now it has a working battery and quite enjoying it at the moment but no doubt ill look for swaps in 6 months or so

Is Tetris one you would consider (for future reference..) 

Thoughts anyone?

Im tempted to just get a new MPU but given that if I leave it for a while it starts to boot (but resets but gets further everytime) im starting to think it could be the PSU

As always money is mega tight so dont want to pay for something if it might not fix the issue

Update, its now dead (ish)....

Turn on and does nothing (red light flashing on board and 4 green lights on)

Leave it for a while and it seems to want to boot but just keeps restarting, if left long enough it will eventually stay on.

Ive took the PSU out and looks ok (though there are some burn marks where capacitors are close to the shell)

Im guessing its going to need a new board

Feel free to share your thoughts,

Thanks
