Hey folks,
This is my last cab and it's an extremely rare find, the rotating monitor Neo 26.

What's amazing about this cab is it rotates, just like an Egret2. The monitor is on wheels so you just lift up the cover and turn it. and since it's small it's perfect as a single cab for hori and shmups.


Here's a video of the rotating mechanism:

And here is a video of this cab running Aero Fighters:

The monitor is a Nanao 26 that I custom cleaned and recapped...and not just a cap kit but EVERY capacitor I possibly could. So it has dozens of new caps and I reflowed EVERY solder point on the board. I gave it a lot of love and many hours of work so it's possibly the best 26" Nanao existing today.
see chassis pics here:

Here is a nice pic of the beautiful crosshatch (the camera can't do this monitor justice though):

The bad? It does need some very minor work. It could use a new set of joysticks and buttons. It needs a lightbulb for the marquee and a lock for the marquee as well as one for the panel and a bezel(though these aren't really necessary, just for someone interested in a like-new setup). It could use a new paint job as well.
However, everything electronic is great, and I redid a ton of wiring personally and spent countless hours restoring her. Look at the pics and you will see what a clean setup it is.

Pickup in San Mateo, CA 94401. More pics over here (though I have to take some more of a more colorful game to show off the great monitor)

WoW, that is the same cab! Too bad your monitor broke on it X_X I've never seen another one before, and that's a real shame too, I would have paid more than that to have an extra for the parts and shipping would have been cheaper here too >_< oh well...

P.S. is it ok if I post up your youtube video showing how the cab rotates?

Oh, I'm sorry. I must have been kind of cryptic. It isn't my cab. I contacted the dude, but I couldn't afford the shipping. I had to pass.

If I were you I would totally post that vid. Good luck with the sale. I would pick that up if it were anywhere near me.

It is with great displeasure that I have to bail out of buying this wonderful unit from you. My dad won't be in the California area until October, so please sell it to someone else. If it is still avail in October (highly doubt it) I'll take it then :(

Just an FYI to everyone, the cab is located at my house so if anyone has any specific questions about the cab feel free to ask me.

The cab is really nice and I haven't personally seen another one of these at all. Most people know about the Egret 2, but this one rotates just as easily as the Egret so when I want to switch from playing, say, Ibara to Deathsmiles the switch is a breeze. I've "stored" a few cabs for friends and this is easily my favorite. Yeah it could use a paint job if you want it to look like new, but the thing is super easy to use, convenient, and most importantly RARE. I'd buy it myself if I still had PCBs.

So anyway, let me know if you have any questions.

Any chance you would be willing to trade that panel for a 4 button one?
