Hi,

An arcade operator around here have used but in good working condition those tall blue 20" Capcom cabs released for CPS2 games.

They are selling those with a CPS2 mobo (with a game) or with Garou (cart and a MV-1 something - cart can be a boot, however).

They sell the cabs for US$272 without any board inside.

Anyone knows if the price tag is worth?

How good this cab is?
Are the monitor rotable?
Since those are fighter cabs (6 buttons) it surely have the adittional harness for those buttons. It would complicate any attempt to use a regular jamma board in it?
What are the games to looking for (collector-wise, a bargain for that price?)

I think I saw one once at ebay, with SSF2T inside.

Thankd for the help.

Thanks, that`s the most valuable info for me. I don`t want all the hassle of buying/transporting/restoring a cab to be stuck without vert shooters.

I'm 99% decided to take the cab, I just considering now if I must take it with a cps2/neo game or just get the bare cab for mame (calm down, I plan to do all through a fingerboard, I don`t want to mess with the jamma wiring; I'll leave it intact)
