I need to do a cap kit and some sound board caps and it will be on it's way upstairs. This game is really hard to play. I have a Zaxxon board to plug in should I get tired of one minute games. Someone actually operated this one in 2010. It needs a little cleaning but is super nice.

I have a Zaxxon. When I tried Super Zaxxon in MAME, I thought something was wrong with the emulation speed or something. It seems a little lame that it gets all of its difficulty from just doubling the speed your jet flies.

I'll eventually snag a Super board for complete-ness. Although I prefer the original version of the game, the Super Zaxxon cab is much cooler. Nice score!

That is a cool looking cab, love the art. Future Spy and Zaxxon had rather plain cabs compared to SZ. I need to get an SZ board to swap into my Future Spy cab.
 
Sweet score! Where did you find it, and what did ya pay, if I may ask?!?! I just picked up a mint-condition Super Zaxxon from a local pawnshop a couple weeks ago for $125 and some old musical gear that I no longer used. I believe mine was part of the Quaker Oates cereal contest BITD. LMAO at ur 1 minute games! Same situation here when I started, now I'm up to 45,000 and about 3 or 4 minutesif I'm havin a great game. More pics, please! How does the inside look? I found a bunch of mint Sega game flyers, the instruction manual, and other Zaxxon goodies when I opened mine up the first time. I love the fact it's a hard game! Makes for a nice challenge, since I'm good enough at my other machines to play for 20 minutes or more each game.

Love the game, again nice score!! Dig through some of my most recent posts for some more insight on the game, if you want...
 
Sorry I sold my Red joysticked Super Zaxxon(rarely see them). Super Zaxxon is better IMO. I had a Zaxxon board and put it in and was alittle to slow after getting used to Super Zaxxon. Enjoy......
 
Todd31, getting any better at it yet?!?!

Haha! No. Well a little bit. I make it out of the first tunnel and then die alot. I will have a chance to play some more this weekend. The game is tough but I am getting the hang of it. I use to play the heck out of Zaxxon back in the day but all of those skills seemed to have left me. Overall I think the game is growing on me.

To answer your earlier question, I scored it on ebay for 250. It was too nice to pass up.
 
Sweet price! I got mine for $275 plus taxes at a local Pawn America, damn near mint condition! $125 outta pocket, and $175 in musical gear that I no longer used, and it was mine!
 
I'd never played the sequel before, only the original, but it was also too good of a deal to pass up...

What exactly does a Future Spy cabinet look like?
