Irritating maze must have had one.

I think SS2 was the only one bio? Mvs that is SNK had lots just not neo.

BioMotor_Unitron · Apr 11, 2002

O.K. I guess they just made the large marquees, etc., for single slot MVS cabs, and did not bother will full dedicated cabs. I did not think so, as I could not recall any beyond that SSII one, which I am guessing is fairly rare.

I've seen a Metal Slug dedicated cab here in MD about 5~6 years ago. Not many people played it but me. It was camoflage, and thus I guess not many people saw it.

BioMotor_Unitron · Apr 11, 2002

Interesting. I wonder if they just took a normal one slot cab and decorated it to fit the theme?

Hmmmmm that would be very cool EW nver saw one but I would love to!! was it a 19" or 25"?

I know that the Shooting title for Hyper NEO GEO 64 had a dedicated cab complete with a gun . and I also remember that it had a deep cabinet with a mirrored reversed monitor . <img src="graemlins/drool2.gif" border="0" alt="[Drool 2]" />

If anyone remembers the name of that game and also the racing title for the Hyper 64 let me know

You are thinking of Beast Busters: Second Nightmare. I have that one. I was not really thinking of Hyper 64 games, but rather MVS games, but I just realised that I did not specify in the title.

19" with 3 buttons to a side. Used the full camoflage marquee at the header of the cab, as opposed to the mini marquee.

Funny that this topic was brought up a few days ago , but I just saw a Bust a Move dedicated cab , today at a laundry mat . yellow with a big BUB on its side . :eek:

Nobody mentions the double-machinegun cabinets for MECHANIZED ATTACK?

Is Mechanized Attack an MVS game?

Was it the original Bust-A-Move, Bust-A-Move Again, or Bust-A-Move Again EX?

Can you tell me if the artwork on the side of Bub was a stick-on or painted?

I am not sure.... <img src="graemlins/spock.gif" border="0" alt="[Spock]" />
A few years ago it still was all over the place in the arcades in Jesolo,Italy!It had the '330-Mega pro gear spec' Neo-logo running,so i assumed it was running on mvs...

I remember it so vividly because in one place it was standing next to a TERMINATOR 2 arcade game,and thought the Neo one to be a rather inferior rip-off...

Neo Rasa · Apr 13, 2002

Herzog Mechanized Attack ain't no MVS game.

Do check out the original Beast Busters though. That gun game was released in 1993 and while it isn't on MVS I always wondered if it was running on some sort of dedicated version of the MVS hardware set up to use the guns.

It was the original Bust a Move the BUB was in fact a sticker and I could tell thus right away it was peeling off in a corner .

Beast Busters was one of the last pre-Neo Geo SNK games and was released in 1990...
Had it been released in 1993 it would definitely have been an MVS game, don't you think so?

Neo Rasa · Apr 14, 2002

You're right it was 1990, but even so MVS was out by then.

Bio,

I don't know if this is proof or not that these deicated cabs existed but I own large marquees for Neo Turfmasters and Metal Slug. I have also seen large marquees for Sam Sho 4, Strikers 1945, Neo Mr. Do, Metal Slug X, KOF98... hmm I think that's all the ones I've seen. That doesn't necessarily prove anything, but it's a start

I have several large marquees, they are generally just used for cabinets with a one slot board, of maybe if you have a multi-slot board but want to let everyone know that you have a particular killer title in it.

BioMotor_Unitron · Apr 15, 2002

Damn, all this talk about dedicated cabinets has me wanting to load up all of the World Heroes games into a four-slot, put it in a generic cabinet, then have a friend of mine work her artistic magic on it. <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[Crying]" />

Yeah, I was thinking that that's another possibility for the marquees. With SNK's system of interchangeable carts it really doesn't make a whole lot of sense to make a dedicated cabinet for any of their games. Did the dedicated Sam Sho II have a one slot w/ SS2 in it or was it a real dedicated PCB?

I have never seen one of the dedicated SSII cabs up close and personal, but it would make no sense to have a seperate PCB when making such would surpass the costs of simply using one slot boards with an SSII cart in it.

There was other Hyper Neo Geo 64 dedicated cabinet. It was a racing game, I don't remember the name.
