Got this yesterday. It's in decent shape, everything works. My kids are enjoying it. I like the marquee, the mirror effect is pretty cool. It had some stickers on it, but I cleaned it up.

How was it to move? *snicker* *snicker* :p I have one of these, even just the empty cab is a PAIN, I hope I never have to move it out of my garage.


The hard part was getting it up the front steps. The rest wasn't so bad.
 
I forgot about that one. The arcade I worked at as a kid had that one. I love the old drunk man. Looks good so I have to ask how much? And I never moved one is it that heavy?

$200. It's not the weight that's a problem, just that all the weight is in the front, so it's awkward. Couple that with a pair of roller wheels on the back, and it wants to drop forward fast when you stand it up. In fact, that happened yesterday. I was standing it up after lowering it down off my truck when it suddenly rolled. I lost my grip and it banged hard when the front hit the ground. I breathed a sigh of relief when I plugged it in later and everything still worked.
 
Very nice and congrats on your pickup. I probably haven't played that game in 15 years, but damn those were good times.



Thanks. I also found the service manual inside when I was checking it out.
 
Nice find. $200 for a nice working game is always a great score.

That game was after my arcade time but I remember playing it at the Red Robin a bunch of times when it there bitd. Cool fighting game. One thing I've been missing in my arcade is a good fighting game.
 
The monitor is worth the 200 you paid for the game. They're getting hard to find.
 
I've got one in now, and have had several in the past: It's about as bad to move as a Golden Tee Fore cabinet. Very heavy and awkward... but very nicely built too. Probably one of the worst cabinets to move up steps or anything like that.

Same here, but I liked it enough to buy it. And I thought my kids would like it. Whether they will like it is half the decision for me, because they'll play it more than I will.
 
nice cab but if I was buying more(I stopped for now) I might get a newer fighting game bit that one is still fun(even with the now blocky graphics)
