Someone called me looking for a generic jamma cabinet. I mentioned I had a SF1 cabinet.. Well, he is interested, but considering how rare this is, I figured I should offer it up to someone who might care about it. The only thing not really nice about it, is the marquee. it should be replaced.

I still need to drop a monitor in it, but it appears to be fully working. Here are some pics. I am going to ask $600 for it.

Sorry to bust up your gig here, but I don't think that's the original side art. ;)

The Bezel, CPO, and marquee are all available to replace, but no one has the sideart. $600 is a bit high without it (well... atleast amongst us cheap bastards). Neat little peice of fighting game history you've got there, though.

Yeah, I wish you the best of luck with the sale Bill, but that is not dedicated.

I think the bezel and CPO seem to be part of a kit most likely. The side art looks to be homemade of Ryu and Ken from SFIII. I'm not sure if this cab was US release, but I would think this is the dedicated version: http://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=9803

Like Gozer said, a great classic.

Ok, then no sweat selling it off. the guy wants generic jamma and to play streetfighter and some other jamma games, so this will fill the bill.

I have seen this cabinet config before but now that I think of it, the proper side art is SF art off the cab with vacuum buttons in the flov pic. So right cabinet, right marquee, right bezel, right control panel, but wrong side art. (It does have the SF1 pcb in it).

As for cheap KLOV bastards, I don't mind... I post it here, if no one is interested, I make it dissappear on CL. I respect the cabinet and its history, I just don't care about SF.

I had one of these a few years ago, mine was horribly water damaged though.

In my opinion, that is a dedicated Street Fighter, I don't know why they don't have the right sideart on it, but who knows these things. That looks just like mine, same cab, same control panel, same bezel, same marquee, and i'm sure mine was dedicated.

People have different 'ideas' of dedicated though, to me dedicated means "Capcom sent this to operators in this cabinet, just like this". I think the only game that's ever been in your cabinet is Street Fighter, and it came from Capcom just like you're seeing it, likely with the other sideart on it though.
 
Dedicated?

Well this was one of the stock optional cabs that capcom did offer it in. There is no real dedicated because it's of course Dynamo but if you were to consider the fact that you have the original Bezel and CPO, you are 1/2 there.

I just saw that Marquee on Ebay today. The side art is the most rare and I would say that it's near impossible to find.

The double plunger (crappy) machine is more dedicated than this one but you would never want to play on that machine. The picture on the game directory shows the correct SF#1 art.

IMHO - You have a HS1 with a decent example of a Bezel and CPO from SF1. Nothing SF1 is very collectable. SF2 was too overbuilt to be a rare collectable.

I bid on a SF2 machine on Ebay that was sold from Sacramento middle of last year. I got outbid and it went still for under $200. It was a SF2 board in a SF1 machine with the correct SF1 side art. It was a nice machine like this one.

Max $200 with SF1... You may get up to $300 on CL in this area with SF2 WW in there through to HF.

Best of luck... of course you know that you are just as cheap as the rest of us.

and on the note of SF side art... it of course sucks. I wish they had used some of the Japanese concept art for any of these instead of contracting US artists for side art.

I disagree with that opinion, just because Dynamo was contracted out to buy the cabinets from, it's still dedicated because it came from the factory with that game installed, and they made artwork custom fit to the cabinet, and shipped it already installed on the cabinet. That's as dedicated as you can get.

that art is what I have seen before(different than the vacuum button cabinets art). Sadly, I knew an operator who had about 10 sets of that SF1 art. I am sure it got tossed when he moved..

Well, if the guy flakes, I will just 60 in 1 it.. I will save the cp, marquee and pcb and off them to someone who is interested in them. Last SF 1 pcb I think I sold it for $150, but that was a few years ago..

That side art is actually the Japanese Concept art... only it is for the SF3 series... I agree though in that the Super Turbo (and Alpha series) is amongst the best of the best in terms of concept artists that were working at the time for Capcom (Akira Yasuda, Akiman, etc...)

Well, I guess you don't know this market as I sold SFII CE in dynamo hs1 19" cabinet last month for $425. It sold in about 6 hours. I got about a dozen emails on it(It was not nearly as nice as this one).

Also, I would not say I am cheap... I have spent and I am willing to spend much more than most cheap bastards here. Problem is other than pins, I have everything I could possibly want (Well, I would pay decent money for a nice zoo keeper). I am sure you were just busting my balls, so no sweat..

yeah just messing...

well more power to you if you can get top dollar... but $600 to KLOV guys?
 
my family had the 6 button model back when it was new, this is the first time I'm noticing that the button strength layout was... backwards?

FK-MK-QK
FP-MP-QP

ironically, our first major game purchase since re-entering the business 3 years ago was an Extreme Hunting in one of the pneumatic button cabs. I think it even has one of the original button plates. cab is next to impossible to move, unless you have a dolly with 45 degree tilt and a belt.

oh, and the pneumatic one is ugly as sin.

it has Atari stickers on it as well. considering the Atari/Dynamo connection with the 33" showcases, was Atari like the brand-name that shipped on Dynamo's cabs back then or something?

I was just about to post, wondering if all SF1 machines were wired like that (I don't think they were) or if all of them were just labeled incorrectly like this (also doubtful).

Mine was backwards like that too. That's how the buttons were installed as well, I don't know why they decided to switch it. Really, there's no reason for it to be one way or the other, since they basically invented that layout with that game! If they say Fierce was on the left, it could have been on the left as easily as we now swear it should be on the right.

I worked for an op. 4 years ago or so, I'm supposed to set one of these in a location. Ours was the one with the geese on it that you hunt, which one in the series was that? I think it was JUST birds, but I guess it may have had the deer too.

Anyways, like you said, 1 person cannot hardly pick this thing up. The cp is so big, and round, that you can't pick it up from the front because you'll never tip the back up. You can't pick it up from either side either, because the control panel is crooked, and also the bottom of the game is curved on the sides so the hand truck won't fit under it.

The only way to pick it up is from the back, which is near impossible with 1 person because it's got that big ass cp hanging off the other end, so you can't tip it back. Think Golden Tee cabinet, only twice as bad. LOL


In other words, I feel your pain
 
That's a dedicated Street Fighter 1, wrong side art. I don't think they made SF1 in a kit. The attack buttons were "backwards" on the SF1's.
