I think you just killed about 50 dialup users.

I like the cab, but that screen is too tiny for me.

Ya, sorry about the large pic. I took a smaller one but it came out like crap. As for the size of the cab, it took a miracle just to get it up my tight stair case.

i would have to agrre with daisuke jigen that screen is too small for me atleast and i would honestly paint over the woodgrain on the bottom of the cab and get black sticks that is just my oppinion please do not take any offence to it.

Don't paint it!!! That's the way it came. I have been hoping to come across some good pictures of this model.

Take some more pics and email them to me and I'll put them up on hardMVS.

Very cool!

$hockwave, when I got the cab the first thing I did was put in all new push buttons and I was going to replace the joysticks but they still have a lot of life left so I decided to wait a bit and then get black ones. As for the size of the screen it's perfect for the cab, any bigger and it would be uncomfortable for the eyes.

I like the yellow joysticks, it goes good with the color scheme. And the monitor size is fine, its a perfect fit for the size and shape of that cab. I would actually like one like it, odd yet appealing.

Briggs, thank you for the kind words. And hell no I'll never paint it, I'm very happy with the way it looks now. I know it's a more rare cab and it's in great condition. Let me know what kind of shots you want and I'll send them over to you.

Nathan, I believe it's a 19 inch. Plenty big enough when it's in your face though.

I agree . . .

A 19" is just fine especially when you're that close to it. I have a Jap. mini 4 slot cabinet and it has a 19" screen too.

I agree with Nathan , lol
Especially since I also have an SC-19 like his.
19 is the perfect size , gives you a very sharp pic and is easy on the eyes.

Anyone who would paint that should be shot !

Very cool !

Hey Chief, is there a model number on that cab anywhere? I'd be curious to know what it is.

Looks like a European cab, from my limited knowledge.

I donno, if I got a cab, a candy would be nice. :) But hey if you like the "classic" look of it then hey man it's your baby!

Enjoy it, that's all that matters!

Peace

I think it's cool, kinda gives off a 'bowling alley' vibe. Like an overgrown 2600. Be proud dude. :cool:

I don't know what some of these guys are talking about. That is one of the coolest cabs I've seen in a while. It looks mostly original and it's awsome!

Congrats on it, take care of it, and PM me first if you ever need to get rid of it. We cabinet collectors know beauty when we see it.

It's US, and it's original. These pop up on ebay from time to time. I actually won an auction for one, but the seller backed out on me. Cheap Bastard.

heres the lowdown on this cab. it is %100 origfinal SNK. I believe it was designed to be used for home use for seriouse gamers who truly wanted the arcade experience at home (hence the woodgrain finish). I don't know what happened in the end, but I would think that some got sold to individuals and some for arcade use.
anyway, briggs if you want one I may be able to help you out. E mail me.
