Well, finally got her home... got a lucky break in the weather today.

Just snagged a quick picture of her in the "staging area". Had to adjust the levels on the image so you can see everything since I had to turn the lights off because of the reflection.

Well... there she is.

I don't see any cocktail images of the game on KLOV, so I guess I could submit pictures, no idea... are they still so backed up that it'll take a year or so to see the images even show up for the game?

Anywho, she's a beauty... as best I can tell she's pretty much been HUO... the cabinet has Japanese kanji all over the ID plate and stuff, that's probably normal'sh? The coin still does have a .25 sticker though, so... I'm not really sure how that works out. Anywho, hella clean... only 2 minor scratches on the glass, and that little chip out of the woodgrain as seen in the picture... that's literally the only blemishes on the cabinet. The "marquee" sticker and the intructions sticker are barely faded as best I can tell, still pretty vibrant.

Anywho, happy to have her. Only took $100 for it, so yay that...

... I say that now, but the attract mode music is already drive'ng me nuts. lol

The flyer does indicate that it was also available in a cocktail model. Congrats on the score. I have never played Route 16. Is it any fun?

Edit: The EU flyer has a picture.

Yep, that's her.

Yeah, it's pretty fun... VERY challenging... At least for me... the three cars that try to catch you are smart and relentless... the mazes change every time you start a game... it's pretty fun. The music will make you want to kick a kitten, but it's def. worth giving a try in MAME.

I knew the legs were adjustable.. but to bar height? That's awesome... too bad it's on carpet, but still... good to know that's an option when I get a new place.
 
beautiful, I'd love to have a Rt 16 CT, I just bought Rt 16 CP, marquee and bezel, i'll be converting something before too long. The game play is great.
 
You just can't beat a working game for $100. And you even got a clean one! Nice!
 
Weird, went digging through the bottom of the cabinet for the coin door key, didn't find it... did find this though.

You never know what you're going to find... a new game is like a treasure hunt, sometimes it's just dead rats and their petrified turds, sometimes it's... what's the exchange rate for the guys? I don't know which is worth more, the turds or the coin?

Well, 50 Indonesian Rupiahs comes to a whopping $.005 USD. Yes, 1/2 a cent. :)
 
Wow... they play for cheap there. Better than the (almost) a dollar it takes to play a game in Japan. ;p

Well, if that thing is the size of a US quarter or common token.... Then I can see someone trying to get a bunch of those coins at the current exchange rate and using them as slugs for video games. :)

Yeah, I used to do the same when I was stationed in Japan... I'd get a crap ton of 500 Won from Korea, then we'd use them in place of 500 Yens. lol 50 cents compared to 5 bucks... ... It was dirty, but... ... actually, no buts, it was a dick move.
 
nice pick up! I tried it in mame - reminds me a bit of Rally X, but different. :)

If you like it so much, I'll trade you for your Baby-Pac. lol ;p

I keep coming back here to find the dip settings to turn off the attract mode sounds, but I keep getting distracted and forgetting... ... I'mma try again. Wish me luck!
 
are you kidding me? How can i repair vidiots with nothing to test them in? Lol. I did have 2 for awhile. Traded the nicer of the two for a tempest. Sold that to fund artwork for my Tron.
