That's not too bad a deal, considering it comes with 3 new controllers, and all those carts.

Thumbs down

Considering I've got a Sigma and a 4-slot already, methinks not. Arcade doesn't need my money.

My guess is that big daddy Tonk..., er, I mean Cappadonna is gonna get it...

Sounds like they did a lot of work and it should be really cool. If I didn't already have a Super Gun/4-Slot I definitely would have ordered one of these...

Question

What is their price without all the extra stuff? Or who ordered one and would know?

I can't believe that he's finally producing these! I'd buy it, if I didn't already have a SuperNova, 2 Phantom-1 convertors and an Arcade cab...

I would love to buy it, but it will probably go for some ridiculous amount of money. It is one hell of a package deal though.

He shoulda used the 2 slot with the memory card reader. I'm sure you could plug in a MC-IC board and it would work fine, but look ugly as hell.

Real nice how he shows all those carts and throws in the picture of the board with Bang Bead plugged in, even thought it does not come with it.

I think he would have a better shot of selling these as 2 slots without any carts. I'll also be interesed to see if those custom chips become available by themselves.

I asked Ray from !Arcade! about these, he told me that they were not producing anymore at this time.

I guess they were available only from Preorders, and they would produce more if the demand was great enough.

They never quoted me a price, I asked him several times though..... I'd like to own one of those myself.

Guess I'll just have to settle for my 2 Cab and my Sigma for now....LOL <img src="graemlins/smirk.gif" border="0" alt="[Smirk]" />

Geez.

I wouldn't mind having it for the hell of it.

I really want an MVS in addition to my AES. But I think I'll have to settle for a Neo cab. Maybe one of the Candy Cabs. Good luck with getting that Tonk.

Oh yeah, one thing...maybe it's me, but I don't like how the boards are exposed. I think it opens it up to dust and all sorts of other crap which might be somewhat problematic.

I don't understand how he's evasive about price if he actually sold some.

So you think your AES is dust free just because it's in a plastic case...LOL! Just open it up and...surprise surprise! <img src="graemlins/tickled.gif" border="0" alt="[Tickled]" />

About a year ago, I would've seriously considered getting my hands on one of those. Now, however, I've got my own AES and Phantom-1 converter, so owning a Shadow 4 would be superfluous.

WTF happened?

How come the auction was ended? I hate it when sellers do that. Makes me think shady dealings are about .

It was implicit in your words that AES is better protected from dust because it's in a case, which is not true: you can remove dust from an arcade pcb very easily exactly because its pcb is exposed. On the contrary people hardly ever open their console to clean the inner pcb which in the long run collects much more dust...

OK, sir: put something else in your mouth, choose from:

A) Dion Dakis' fat cock
B) Chris Ray's sad cock
C) Both
