Disappointed to read, on 1Ups own site, that the Asteroids/Tempest cab is borked with a utter sh1te spinner.
It's not even a proper spinner, despite those being readily available, it's some of clicky plastic thing.
Perhaps it could be swapped out but, at the prices this is selling for, it's another reason not to buy one.

Anyone know if the recently announced Pac-man cab might make it over here ?

Skerries

gah! Gamestop have pushed back the release date to 1st December

CiDeRmAn

I was all for the Tempest cab but the reviews have put me right off.
Think I'll give these a miss.

I have all my mod parts ready to install so I'm committed at this stage

I actually like it! It eliminates the weakest part of the product and gives it an entirely new purpose!

Walmart selling these for $150 for Black Friday weekend. Wouldn't mind one at that price!

Those movie posters are excellent, do you have any others?

No maligning the Spectrum now!

Of course on the Speccy the primary colours were 'sort of blue' ,'radioactive pink' and 'nuclear custard yellow'

To be fair for us on the commodore 64 they were Brown,Brown,Reddish Brown .

this was a user on Reddit, he said The Raven was a reprint but his others are originals

My SFII finally arrived so I have it setup and I will mod it this weekend

DaveyDave

€200 in GameStop. Video from John Hancock that his video output is faulty, the few I've watched about these really aren't positive. The trackball is dodgy, the control panel is easily worn etc.

Ah man I will have to pick one up for €200

Edit - hardly any stock available nationwide

CiDeRmAn

I still want the Asteroids/Tempest cab though!
But the only one in stock is in Wexford!

XsApollo

200 euro?
How hard would it be too hook a Pi 3 up to this?
The street fighter one is in limerick might go in.

DaveyDave

It says free delivery on them, shouldn't be an issue? Only two of them available now.

Inviere

Was just about to pull the trigger there, but sense got the better of me...

€200? :eek: total impulse purchase at that price.

Looks like these may be very easy to hack, soldering on a USB cable to the board and plugging in a keyboard seems to be giving more games and some configuration options on some cabs

I pulled the trigger on a Street Fighter 2, the want/need threshold was nullified with the price drop

ronanc1000

Has anyone pulled the trigger on these? Seems a very good price. Are these well packaged up for trasit would be my only concern? Little to no in store availability.

frasr

Been reading up a bit more, some of the different cabs/boards seem to have config files (not roms) from games they tested
e.g. street fighter board has config files for: 1942, 1944, asteroid, bwidow, ccastles, centiped, defender, ffight, gauntlet, gng, gngt, joust, liberatr, llander, milliped, missle, mk2, rampage, sbrkout, sf2ce, ssf2, ssf2t, strider, striderusa, and tempest.

So I've a feeling these will become very hackable shortly. The original street fighter cab was meant to have SF2, Strider, Final Fight & Ghosts N Goblins, and when they were dropped my interested dropped as well but looking forward to getting sick of SF2 and hopefully by then going back & putting Strider on it...oh the plans I have but won't have the time....

The packaging is decent with the monitor in the middle so I wouldn't worry about getting it delivered

I finished the mod and can now play all my old arcade favourites alongside NES, SNES, Megadrive, Gameboy and PS1

the only issue I had was that the screws on the paddles were glued on so I had to use a lighter to soften them up before replacing with the better ones

Cool! Yeah I went for the Spade invaders cab in the end. The artwork on these look nice and hopefully it'll play well.
Hopefully won't take too long to arrive! For €200 I think it's a good price compared what they were upon release and probably would have cost me more to build.

DaveyDave

It seems the artworks on the controller panel are prone to wear, I believe you can contact 1Up for a clear cover to over the artwork. Could probably get a clear film and do it yourself too.
