To play devil's advocate, he did say on his website that the cabinet was empty and only had a control panel. At least he built a control panel and didn't cut up the original. I'm all for restoring a game to original, but I have to imagine it's hard to even find parts for Computer Space. Looks like he's already catching some flack over at BYOAC.
And there's my take.![]()
Everything else in this post was completely made moot by saying this. That's the complete essence of the matter distilled down to one sentence. I'm not usually for messing with rare cabs, but it's the guy's cabinet. He can do what he damn well pleases with it, and god forbid he screws it up enough to make it worthless, than better off for the people that own a working one, theirs just got more valuable.
I'd have a bit more emotion if it was something other than him just tinkering with the cabinet..it's not like it's electronics, the soul of the machine. No, it's just skin....more like dead skin, since there's nothing original under it.
This is what gives MAMErs a bad reputation..
This is wrong on so many levels
Please stop gutting rare machines for MAME!
Pick a Dynamo or even a common Pac Man is you have to use a classic..
And stop calling a cleaned up cabinet restored!! Restored is a word used to describe "brought back to it's original state"
It was already gutted... but the guy isn't too bright. He could have sold the cabinet and bought 10 Dynamo cabs...
