Price check KI2

$400-$500 and higher I have seen.
I don't like the game as much as the MK series, so I wouldn't buy one,
unless it was $250 or less.
 
I was thinking about putting mame in it, It was not suppost to work. Got it home and it fired right up, beautiful picture, plays perfect, Sideart 8.5/10. Can't mame it now:eek:
 
yeah no one really plays KI consistently, in the wild I can't imagine it making money
only some classic fighting games may earn. SSF2T or Marvel vs Capcom can always pull in a buyer
 
Ah yes, good old Orchid. Tasty but not as nice looking as the original KI cabinet with Spinal. No idea what the current price is - but I would spend $350 if it was working 100%. Does it have an original drive? MAME it fine, but don't destroy that control panel/sideart or I'll come looking for you.
 
It would be worth more if it was KI....


Your doing the right thing. Offer it up for what its worth to you. Who knows, maybe some MS empoyee has to have it..

If you like it for mame (buying a bolt on 4 player panel could be useful) and no one wants it, the part it out. I am sure someone would give you $100-$150 for the working pcb and marquee.

I sold my KI for $500 about a year ago.. it was probably in about the same shape.
 
I picked it up today with this working Tekken 3. The Tekken 3 was advertised as working. It works great, its in a dedicated Mortal Kombat cab painted black.

But the KI2 was picked up non working. Did not even plug it in at his place since he said it did not work. Im happier with the KI2, the art work is nice, and it fired right up.

Maybe I will mame the Tekken cab, but that hard because I have Mortal Kombat boards. Both have beautiful monitors!!

ki1 dedicated is more sought after then ki2
alot of ppl were unhappy with changes they made to ki2
the ki1 cabinet looks better.
the in game art is more appealing in ki1 also.
plus they never made a good home port of ki 1, ki gold on n64= ki2

ki2 dropped cinder and spinal characters to name a few..

in all ways ki1> ki2

if some one offers you $450 on the ki2 consider yourself lucky and take it!



btw ki1 and ki2 harware is the same.

i lucked out last time.
some one advertised a ki2 machine

it was a ki 1 cabinet with ki2 marquee, chips, and hdd,
even the board still said ki, not ki2 lol
when i pulled up the control panel over lay there was a nice ki1 cpo under it, score! saved me $75! lol!
then i just bought k1 marquee, ki 1 chips and hdd, done!

I love both KI and KI2, but I would happily trade my KI cab for a KI2 cab. I think it looks way better.
 
There's a joker down here that's had a KI2 listed on and off for ~$225. IMHO KI2 just pales in comparison to KI. Not trying to price police because look at what a monitor alone costs. Just saying the game isn't popular.

No your not price police:) Im looking for opinions. I have never played either. I saw a non working KI listed for $400.

Is KI more fun ,or just worth more because its the original???
 
IMHO KI is WAY more fun than KI2. KI2 is cheesy. They attempted to add a few new characters and they suck.

Opinions vary as they very well should
