Title: Check out my Weekend Pick Up....
Post by: lordkahless214 on February 11, 2014, 01:44:30 am
OK show off time ;D This last week I bought a Neo Geo MVS 2 slot cab, I got it home this weekend and I just got done cleaning it up.
It works 100% and only has minor edge swelling, after a bit of bondo/sanding on the black areas,  I'm going to be repainting everything but the red.
The cab came with Metal Slug 4, Samurai Shodown, and Puzzle Bobble.

What do you guys think about the newest addition?

nice! good game finds too. Does your marquee lights work, pretty rare find these days if they do.

Thanks guys!
Yes the marquee works, although at some point it had it's lights replaced with a regular fluorescent tube. the selectable back light was still in the cab too, but is not installed or working.

I will try to get that going when I get the 2 slot marquee for it, right now it has the marquee from a 1 slot because the op was only running one game in it, I guess this cab was field converted back in the day from a 1 slot when the op ran out of floorspace, and he used ALL of the guts, only thing he didn't hookup was the headphones/memory card port because people liked to jam things in his other ones.
I have more cabs coming, probably next week so stay tuned...

it wasn't too bad actually, 550 for everything. The new CPO and marquee are on their way.
