After warming up, the video signal collapses horizontally (A vertical line in the center of the screen with different levels of brightness (guess the signal is stacking where ships, asteroids, and other video output is displayed). If I shut the system off and let it sit for a bit, it works perfectly again. Before the video collapses, I can see some very slight wavering of the screen at the edges, but its nearly inperceptible.

I have it on free play, so I don't know if the coin mech is working. This coin mech is the original circular model. In fact, I'm pretty sure this game is the original version, without the copyright date on the display.
