I found a cabinet for sale. It is definitely a Nintendo cabinet. I am not sure which. It was converted to a Black Tiger. It still has a Popeye bezel. Any idea guy on what this is? Hoping it is a Popeye. They are asking $250. Going to see if I can get them down to $100.

, Jr. and Popeye (and who knows what else) used that same cabinet. Only way to know is strip that black paint and see what color is underneath and even that would only be a clue and not conclusive. Any tags, or I.D. numbers, or serial numbers on/in it. That "might" help find out what it used to be. (My bet is if it has a Popeye bezel there's a good chance that it was a Popeye, but anyone could have put that bezel in it).

I think it's a Popeye. The blue paint is showing through the black.

Here is the Nintendo plate I found:
