Would you rehome a dedicated Galaga in a Ms Pac cabinet that had previously been converted?
I have a 100% working Galaga that is in a severely water damaged cabinet with no hope of saving and just acquired a Ms Pac Cabinet that was previously converted to Capcom Bowling. There is nothing Ms Pac oriented salvageable from this cabinet but the cabinet itself. No art work, the control panel was cut for the track ball, etc. In other words destroyed. The bright side is once I stripped the crappy paint job on it, the cabinet is beautiful. Either way it has to be painted, I am thinking this would be a great donor case to my Galaga.
Are there any opposing factors to doing this? If there are please let me know. I am new to restoring arcades and don't want to devalue or diminish something that may be better off doing something else with.
Thanks!
