I'm looking for a few things which I cannot find. First, and I'm not entirely sure this has been released in the US yet, but does anyone know where one could buy Virtua Fighter 5 on the Lindbergh hardware? I've seen a couple lindbergh games but this one seems to be MIA. Not sure why.

Also, whats another good place to buy arcade cabinets/kits/dedicated cabinets other than coinopex? For the most part I buy the US versions of my games, which is what makes coe such a hard choice to purchase from. On top of that, their prices seem to be a bit on the high side.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Do you have the large sacks of cash to pay for it?

Getting a lindbergh (cab alone) will be rough, but I hear the Taito Viewlix should be available in a few months and maybe getting that cab and somehow finding a full VF5 system to connect with is possible?

For U.S. Stuff, I'd say your best bet is Matsu or Ebay.

coinop arent that expensive actually, altho im sure the linberg cabs are very expensive anyways.

it mostly depends on how many you buy, a 40ft container is about $3000 and im sure you could fit what.. 30-40 linbberg cabs in there :)
when you buy that many make sure to get a better price from coinop, theyre chinese so dont be afraid to haggle ;)

im sure coinop can get the english versions of a game that new if you ask them, its usually just a software update or sometimes even dipswitches.

Lol, PS3 with VF5 and the VF5 stick?
Why even bother spending thousands when you can get the console port for far cheaper in feburary.

Given the going price on ebay.

PS3 + VF5 might be more expensive than Lindberg cab + VF5 + shipping.
