I am just curious how many people in here own a Neo Geo arcade cabinet. I want to get one and would like to see how many other have them.

Nah, I don't clean it all the time... That's one thing I really love about my cab.. Unlike a lot of Neo cabs I've seen, it doesn't look like it's been through WW3... And I just don't like the Candy cabs, no offense to anyone.. I just like the old school standup arcade feel better. :D

There's two of those cabs in a local Pizza Hut in Roanoke Virginia. One had Metal Slug 1 along with Samurai Shodown 2 and the other had Art of fighting 2 and 3 with Savage Reign. Are you sure they were only released in Australia?

They were manufactured by Leisure & Allied Industries in Brisbane in 1990. L&A were licienced to manufacture the Neo Geo cabs in that region. I think it was only in Japan that SNK manufactured cabs ?
I got the twins here in PNG, they were part of a job lot of arcade cabs I bought here. 14 cabs in total for Aud $200 mostly firewood but the twins worked fine, even had a few carts plugged in ! Right place at the right time I guess(and no market for them here)
Have a mate here who runs a pool table, arcade vending business, he has contacts in Australia who he buys jamma boards from, I know one in Sydney who sells Neo Geo carts, boards and probably whole cabs.
I will email you the contact details thisevening.
You can see another Australian model on Briggs site <a href="http://www.hardmvs.com/images/dedicated/PNGmvsCab.jpg" target="_blank">http://www.hardmvs.com/images/dedicated/PNGmvsCab.jpg</a>

Hmmmm. Strange.... I also have 2 Candy cabs. One is 25" and the other is 29". I also have only one 4-slot board. And I also live in the midwest.

I have an original dedicated 2-slot 25" Neo cab, bought at an auction in New Jersey. :)

I too prefer the stand-up cabs to the candy cabs, just feel better standing up when playing. However to be fair I haven't spent a lot of time playing sit-down cabs, so I might grow to like them with time . . . <img src="graemlins/eek2.gif" border="0" alt="[Eek 2]" />

I have three Neo cabs, the most recent one I got at the same auction that chimp went to. :) I prefer the feel of a good dynamo hs-27 or presentation cab to the sit-down japanese units, but I'm nuts. I should take pictures some time. ;)
