Hey guys i came across a guy selling a Namco Noir 32" LCD cabinet. Very hard to find any information on it. But from the pics he has sent it looks awsome. Just wondering if i should try and sell my egret II for this. Thanks guys

this is what they look like

sounds like a pretty good deal, especially if you want to play XBOX/PS3 or newer hardware on it... honestly I wouldnt sell the egret though, but that is only because I mainly use my cabinets for Jamma games and they might suffer on that display, but thats just me.

Well i have a blast city also with the tri sync monitor and i like its monitor and looks better than i do the egret. Also the sound is better on it, so there is no way im getting rid of it. I know somebody will use the egret more than i do, i only use it for mame which is a sin i know. But i just cant buy the games when i can play them for free.

He asked me not to say, but it is under 2k shipped...

At that price, I wouldn't be able to say no. If you hold onto your Blast for the low res stuff, I say go for it. Your Egret 2 will offset a good chunk of that price. I would post the Egret on the forums just to create more interest.

Love the Flyhigh control panel, not loving the 4:3 game stretched to 16:9 though, is there a way to make it not do that? Very slick looking cab if you're looking to play newer arcade games though.

Yeah- I would love to see more pics (of stretching and non stretching, of the cab, etc). For the price- I'm curious to see how it all holds up!

I just plan on using my 360 in it, so the games should look awsome on it. Ill keep my blast city for older games that are 4:3. Im trying to sell some things to get money up, if anybody wants a modded psp let me know :D

Was there any insurance on it? If so that should cover you, no?

Im not sure if there was or not, i contacted the guy i bought it from at coinopstore and he asked for a pic. So i sent him that and im waiting on a reply from them. I would love if i could just get a new plastic part but these cabinets are hard enough to find as it is...

I talked to them at the place i bought it and they said they were going to get me the new plastics sent out for free and they will deal with the shipping company. So thats AWSOME... Anyways im putting a 360 in it and im having some trouble with the audio. It has a jamma harness in it and there are no RCA jacks that i can find, so how can i wire up rca wires to a jamma harness, anybody have a guide? Thanks

Does that guy have any more of those? Also, did you ever sell your egret? If not, what are you asking for it?
