Yes, it took almost 8 months to buy a game this year. This one is definitely worth the wait. I'll let the (crappy cell phone) pics speak for themselves. So freaking awesome.

SO stoked to have this in the house. Easily the coolest Atari cab (IMHO). Thanks again, Kevin!
 
Congrats! That sideart is in great shape. Food Fight is a really fun game, made more amazing about how it was developed by GCC, and pretty much blown off by Atari at the time.
 
Awesome.

Charley Chuck has a solid red shirt on your version. Doesn't that mean it's one from the earlier run?
 
what about the red tent?

That cab looks super clean, too

I traded for the red tent ;)

How's the joystick work?

If you played FF at CAX, this is the one. Best way to describe it is "tired" but it plays fine. I will get a rebuild kit for it somewhere...

No idea? I could stare at that artwork all day long. Its sweet.

The only bummer about the cab is that it has seen some moisture and is swollen around the t-molding areas. The cabinet is solid as hell though as proof by my unloading it out of the truck and dragging it into the house solo.
 
I dig it.

But you do need to do something about the joystick. I played it some - that joystick is bad.

- M1A
 
Yeah, it needs rebuilt, but it can wait until I find someone with parts. BTW - the monitor is absolutely beautiful. Zero burn with a great picture. I thought all FF's had burn in? Oh, yeah, the HS on this bitch is 20M. Ummm, time to reset that ;)

You can thank Alpiger for that. Man, what a sweet cab. The three games I've been looking for lately are Food fight, Paperboy and Zookeeper. In the last two days you have posted about all three. What's up with that? Great score BTW.
Looks like it's time to trade my Punch-out!!

EDIT: Just saw the initials STV on the high score. Not Alpiger...

Dude, I want a Zookeeper too! Loved it at CAX. FF is rad. The gameplay is awesome, and the cabinet art is beautiful. BTW - I looked again, and the HS was 2M not 20M. Either way, I reset it to start over :)

Cool man, I love ZK too. In fact I'm switching my Jungle King restore to a ZK restore. I'm looking for all the parts ATM. Last time I was at M Sniders pad we played it for a while. He told me he'd never played it before. I was all "Whaaaaat?" then he ended up kicking my ass on it. Ha ha.
 
food fight one of those quirky non spaced themed games with awesome cabinets

n1, i bet your son (?) loves it
 
Anyone know what's up w/ the yellow t-mold? Looks sweet with the art, and the way it's placed looks factory, but I've only ever seen black. Is this something a previous owner did?
