Dedicated cabinets...

I find it hard to track down a dedicated cab. Currently I'm looking for a Capcom vs SNK, and a Capcom vs SNK 2 cabinet, but I'd like them to be dedicated. From what I understand Capcom vs SNK 2 *did* have it's own dedicated cabinet, whereas Capcom vs SNK just used the standard dynamo showcase cab. However, a friend told me that the original Capcom vs SNK did infact have it's own dedicated cab, similar to that of the cvs2 cab but with 4 buttons per player. Is this true? Again any pics are greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Ouch, I don't know...

I just bought a Japanese universal Capcom Impress Jamma cab so I could go the semi dedicated route. ;)

I know they use the same cabinet, but didn't that cab used to be a default cab, like the dynamo showcase ones? I forget the name for it, something with a, "k" I thought. Because the Capcom vs SNK 2 dedicated cab also looked like this one. I just need some kind of confirmation as to whether or not CvS1 actually had a dedicated cab. The 2 button panel layout seen in that picture looks incredibly similar to what I was shown a while back as "the dedicated CvS cabinet". The only other dedicated CvS cab I've seen were the showcase ones, but I could've sworn they had another one.

ive only seen midway use that cab and its pretty obvious thats a MK just by looking at the control panel. i remember capcom had a contest to win a CvS2 it used the blue cps2 cab.

They really stopped making dedicated cabinets for basic jamma games ages ago.

Sometime people see a cabinet with all the proper art kits applied in a decent fashion and they assume it is dedicated.

My friend was telling me about this guy that had all these "dedicated" jamma cabs, but they where all just conversions.

So just to confirm, Capcom vs SNK, Capcom vs SNK 2 and/or Marvel vs Capcom 2 did NOT have dedicated cabinets?
