I'd like to put together a game for my 19" dynamo hs-1. I'm curious which of these would be easiest/reasonable to find *all* the parts for, and would work best in this kind of cabinet (versus a 25" dynamo).

1943
Altered Beast
Black Tiger
Cadash
Final Fight
Karnov
Legend of Kage
Magic Sword
Pyros
Rygar
Shinobi
 
3 way tie between 1943, Final Fight, and Magic Sword. All were available dedicated in HS-1 cabs. So it depends if you want a vertical 2 button game, a 3 button beatemup, or a 2 button beatemup.
 
ugh...so I just bought most of the parts to Final Fight...only to realize that it came in a modular control panel-style hs-1, not the cut corner version I have.
 
Great list of games there and a tough choice. My vote however goes to Shinobi :) One of my all time favourites and still hard as hell even today.
 
I believe that the cut corner HS-1 was the dedicated Final Fight cabinet. I still have mine. But it was converted to an AVP years ago.

i dunno, most of the pictures online are the modular version, the picture used in the final fight remix video game menu screen is modular, and modular seems to make more sense as the words "Final Fight" line up in the front facing portion of the control panel instead of weirdly off-center below the buttons on the cut corner control panel
 
Why not just turn it into the dedicated game YOU want to play/own? :p

One other solution, I have a HS-1 being turned into a rotary stick cabinet. So I want to turn it into a "Victory Road", but the plan is to put in a switcher and run all the rotary stick games.

You could always turn it into, say, Final Fight if you REALLY dig Final Fight and play Magic Sword in the same cab. Can't so much do that with 1943 since it is a Vertical game.

I want to own all of those games I listed, so since I have this one cab, I was polling to see which in those list actually came in the 19" hs-1 (even though I assumed it was all of them) and which would be the easiest to find all the kit art for. I neglected to specify cut corner unfortunately, so now as I'm looking through my list, it seems like the only game that came "dedicated" in the cut corner was 1943

This project has just been sitting there for a long time. The monitor is a CGA/VGA switching monitor and I put a repro corner cut CP on there with a NOS MS kit. I think it came out nice even though the CPO is meant for a different CP setup.
