The front loader was the first SNK CD machine (only 25000 consoles made), then they immediately switched to the top loader, that was less expensive to produce...</strong><hr></blockquote>
Not only that, it's also more reliable, because the front loader contains more mechanical parts which tend to break more readily than the comparably simple top loader drive bay hatch.
$150 is a very good deal for it anyway.
