I know that a lot of you guys think that these things suck, but hell, it's a JAMMA cabinet and I only paid $60 for it. I'm going to put a real MVS board in it, but I have a question. I know that the MVS-1C is small, but does anyone know the exact dimensions of it? I'm going to replace the SD Card board in there, and I need to see if I can get it in there.

Could you post a pick of the inside of the bartop unit?

You could basically remove the joys and buttons from the Control Panel(cap the holes),add some ports on the front of the control panel and replace the PCB

I got it for $60 + Shipping on eBay. (Shipping was $100, which is not cool, but the thing weighs 70 lbs.) Not a bad little deal for a mini-cab like that...

The SNK version has 4 buttons per player.

They also make a Capcom version with six buttons, but I've never seen it for sale anywhere.

Sweet deal there buddy...not as bad as I thought it would be. Hell for 160 it's a damn great deal.

Yeah, I don't think it's worth the $500, but $160 (with door-to-door shipping) seemd reasonable. I'm kind of curious if I can stick more ROMs on the SD card...I'm going to be like a mad scientist once I get this thing.

Congrats! I wouldnt mind having one of those myself. It's a shame how close the first player buttons are to the second players stick on the SNK cab though.

That's great, I'd have gone for that myself if nothing else other than to set it up as a little 1-slot or jamma cab.

The dimensions are:

8.66" (W) x 6.7" (L) x 3.5" (H)


If you need an MV1C board let me know I got 4 of them.

When you searched ebay, what terms did you use. It seems I'm having a hard time finding any on the old bay.

That thing is auctually really cool. Are you sure it has a jamma harness in it? I would have guessed it would just be the roms.
