Sounds like a nice trade to me. Robotron is definitely my favorite game, and all the others are great as well. Congrats on the score and nice job with the hilarious avatar! That dudes just makes magic!

Damn that's pretty crazy, but not really surprising. I had to rob the PPU from my Goonies daughter card to get my Dr Mario to work.Agreed. The PPUs are a pain in the ass to find to complete chipsets. Hell, I sold an extra PPU a little while back for $40 by itself.

I thought it ended up being a fairly even trade with the 5 boards and all. Shrugs. The jrok board is an awesome product. We are lucky to have people like him in the hobby to make products like this. For me, the 3 games I really wanted in order were Stargate, Robotron and Defender. The controls are just "off" enough that I'm going to look to add Robo and Stargate cabarets. So it sounds like this worked out for both of us. I played the shit out of RBI this weekend, barely got to Excitebike and didn't touch the box of boards. Thanks Jow!Wow a straight up trade of your Red Tent for a Multi-Williams? Man that makes me seriously think about seeing what kind of trade I could get for my Red Tent.It's not that I don't like it at all, but I could see getting more use out of something else.
My thoughts on these games -
Robotron - flat out amazing. The real reason to own this PCB.
Is that coming from the guy who was previously bashing the graphics on this game?
How much for your Stargate cabaret?Is that coming from the guy who was previously bashing the graphics on this game?
Turn your head sideways or rotate the monitor.How do you play Sinistar on a horizontal monitor?

It plays horizontally. In the options menu you can setup "rotate joystick for Sinistar" or something like that, and it controls fine. I never played Sinistar BITD, so I don't know any different.
Nice cab! Poor cell phone pic.
I never said it looked great. Its fun as hell though.
EDIT : from the "Worst looking, best playing games" thread I said "the graphics arent exactly stellar". Does that count as bashing?
