Its Christmas, why dont we all just forget this episode and move on?

L1m1tless · 16-12-2018 9:56pm

I think that would be a good idea. No point in all the stress and agro over a couple of arcade machines.

anto002 · 16-12-2018 10:43pm

Their right.
I don't want to argue with anyone on here.
Let's just forget about it guys it's Christmas after all and life is to short for arguing over a couple of arcade machines.
I would like to wish everyone on here and very merry Christmas and a happy new year.

CiDeRmAn · 16-12-2018 11:22pm

Please drop this and move on.

Just use a PC at the heart of the cabinet, it should run them all with ease.

One of these,

Will allow you to play gun games on any display.
The drivers included should integrate with the emulation software and give you the possibility of a multigame cabinet with an arcade style gun controller.
You can use two of them, it seems, as well, if not more.

I don't know if any regulars have given these a shot (ho ho...)

Bit of a purist when it comes to these things! Could easily get a cheap crt to play dreamcast house of the dead 2, but nothing comes close to original cabinet.

I took out some Saturn stuff the other day, and the Sega stunner gun is class (exact same as arcade aesthetically?)

Also played time crisis 5 in an arcade yesterday, the lcd/motion tracker gun thing does nothing for me, accuracy is terrible compared to old crt/lightgun

I have one that will be going with a 15K screen if that helps, and just needs a Jamma Look and PSU from Arcade controls uk. It be a cool one to respray and chop into Jamma Cab

Ive just the Con Mission cab, but you can Netdimm other games into it like Lupin Maze of Kings. I also have a Chihiro and gonna try send Virtua Cop 3, House of the dead 3 and Ghost Squad.

I also have playas EMS Gun III and its pretty cool with MAME games like Police Trainer etc..

I know I said I wasn't interested in naomi, but if you want to send me a pm with whatever you're thinking/half-thinking of shifting, sure let me know anyway, cheers!

They pretty much bolt completely apart and you're just left with the base.

Took apart my Naomi a few years ago for transportation.

airmax87 · 04-01-2019 3:24pm

There's a broken *naomi universal* [thought it was net city] I know of and I'm chaning my arm of taking it off their hands

Not sure about at P206 but I fitted a Naomi Universal in the back of a 2 door Focus ST

I only had 1st,3rd and 5th gear due to it taken up too much space , but I got it home

Its very easy to remove CP (4 Nuts), Monitor front and back (8 Screws).
And for bolts for the Monitor itself to pop out, just remember to take out speaker cables and monitor power at the back. (You'll need security bits)

Nice cab and nice car!
and another Naomi!!!!!

- I got an old EM pinball into my 2 door golf gti before!

airmax87 · 04-01-2019 3:36pm

Brilliant lads, what sercurity bit ? might even have one myself

I forget the size but it's a standard one that's in most bit sets.

I got a Street Fighter pinball into my 06 Polo (4 doors, more whores) so anything is possible

eddhorse · 06-01-2019 12:39am

I don't think you would get a new net city into a 206, I barely got the Astro city into a Skoda estate all disassembled.

Jack burton · 06-01-2019 2:11pm

That's only because you wanted to have the boot closed

eddhorse · 07-01-2019 1:17pm

Good point, i had to disassemble it to get it out of the house and disassemble it to get it into work.
So made sense to leave it disassembled for the 3 flights of stairs.

Jack burton · 07-01-2019 1:18pm

Most candies will need the CP to come off to get through a standard door.

80s Synth Pop · 07-01-2019 1:57pm

It's around €80 to rent a van for a day from Enterprise rent-a-van and you could save more by pre-paying and moving your car insurance over to the van for the day.

The Last Bandit · 07-01-2019 3:03pm

Picked up a T8 LED tube for the Naomi on Ebay, its more or less a direct replacement for the original fluorescent tube - you just need to remove the starter.

Thats a good idea, might see to find a UK seller - same tube setup in the Atomswaves I think?

Was just talking to some people on discord about arcades in Ireland in general.
- I bet we could compile a whole entire list of cabs/machines left in Ireland and it'd be very short, not counting token or private collection.

You have no idea

amazing things here if you go looking, and lots of them. An awful lot of arcade machines were made here in ireland, atari, Namco, Sega etc

If you managed to get a list of those in personal collections I'd imagine it would far exceed any numbers on site.

On the plus side, at least it means there is still a lot left in the country, just in private hands.

Moving arcade stuff soon and enterprise were looking for 150 a day (for the large Van size). You'd be hard pressed to get 2 machines into the smaller Van, and that's a big maybe. That's booking in advance too.

o1s1n · 17-01-2019 6:24pm

I've always used Vantasks.ie myself. Have moved my two cabs for me three times now. They price by time, so a clock starts from when they arrive at your door and then ends as soon as they unload the last item. (Seem to be happy enough to move stuff at off peak hours to make everything a bit quicker)

Could be as easy looking at a man with van ad. I know a few lads who do it after work etc and do it for cash prices.

A truck with a tail lift is ideal though

Yep that's the best for local/short moves alright. Standard cabinets are handy enough to move around, 2 man job if stairs are involved. Bigger machines are a different story, tail lift is necessary

Lol
There are cabs stashed all over the place. And outside of the cabs made here there was **** loads of arcades bitd. Private I reckon is bigger than any of us realise really as a lot of people have imported stuff over the years.
