About 8 or 9 years ago, I got a Raiden in a blue Ms. Pac cabinet. I have always wanted to have a Raiden II PCB. Seems like whenever I tried to find one on E-bay they were $100 or more. I won one on Sunday for $26 plus $12 shipping. It arrived today and after some minor tweaking, it works fine. Had some sound problems but after reseating the socketed ICs it seems to be working.
 
Sweet goto like that and what a great price!!!

Always good to see someone get their Grail be it a whole game or a board. :)
 
Now you just need to find a Raiden DX board and you'll be set. It even has a selectable survival/ranking mode that is fun to try and finish on one quarter.
 
I have played one of the Raiden Fighters games but I don't know which one. Raiden and Raiden 2 are kind of "back in the day" games for me. In high school and for a few years afterward a friend of mine and I would go down to Omaha on console game runs and would often stop at the Omaha Family Fun Center. On the upper level, they had a Raiden and Raiden 2 next to each other. Its not like the impression that the Pac series games made on me but the Raidens definitely made one. Its so nice to own them both now, even if it is in the same cabinet.
