Question from James: I just bought WWF Wrestlefest and wanted to change it from coin operated to continues free play… how do I do that? I’ve tried changing the connectors to the coin device around and haven’t figured it out yet.

Response from Jonathan: James,
Usually this would be set by adjusting the dip switches on the game board. We have a post on our web site on Adjusting Dip Switch Settings On A Board that will give you more information on how to do this. As you can see from this link: http://www.mikesarcade.com/cgi-bin/spies.cgi?action=url&type=dip&page=WWF.txt, there is not a dip switch for free play on your particular game board.
The best alternative is to wire up a credit button that basically trips the coin switch when you press it thus simulating a coin being inserted. Here is an article on Bob Roberts site for more information: http://www.therealbobroberts.net/freeplay.html. We will also be doing a post on this topic soon.
I will also add your question to our podcast outline for episode 20. Please listen to it for more of our thoughts on your question. Thank you for your question and good luck with your future repairs.
