love that game also.

interesting marquee, never seen that one.
 
is there any advange to owning the 3 player version? Any difference in game play? I only payed it once or twice. I think I played t2 more..

Whats the story with the marquee? Its a bit more intersting than the factory one.
 
What is the cab in the background with the SNES controller on it?

That is the SNES Super System. It is the SNES equivalent of the Nintendo PlayChoice10. It has a few of the old SNES titles that (to my knowledge) are direct ports of the SNES games.

You drop quarters in to get extra time and you play until time runs out. IIRC the board used in the cabinet can hold 3 games at once that the player can switch between.

Personally I can't stand the machine. It is big, bulky, and the controllers are huge and awkward. On the other hand, the games they have available on it seem to be some real winners (ActRaiser, F-Zero, Super Mario World come to mind)
 
I just sold a 3 player one not too long ago and it was a great game, its challenging and fun with an awesome sound system in it. The 3 player is a TANK! It's got something like a 32 or 34" monitor and the cab is really wide. It got a lot of play in my arcade but something else came along and grabbed my attention more so I sold it.

Neither have I; the same symbol is on the cabinet, so I know it's legit.

You look excited, Greg! LOL

Lol. I was trying to concentrate on the picture. I am super excited, though.

It is a Nintendo Super System. It was used in the same fashion as the Playchoice - to get kids interested in it before its release. It holds 3 games at one time. However, there has since been a multicart created for it, so it is now capable of holding 15 games with alot more titles available than previously so. The controllers are SNES, but are 4x the size of regular controllers. I think, they are cool. They're not hard to use at all.
