Default Re: Anyone here collect Arcade Machines or Pinball?

so yeah, I now have a Virtual On Cybertroopers machine sitting in my garage



no joke, the heaviest arcade machine I've ever had to move.

gav, if you do pickup that one you saw for sale, you better hope it splits in 2, I had to separate the two sides and haul it using 2 separate trucks.

it took 4 big guys 3 attempts to lift the first half into the back of one of the trucks... the 2nd half went easier as it was a little lighter, the truck was a little lower, and I think we knew what we were doing at that point

I haven't had a chance to check if its networkable, I'll have to see if the operators manual is in the cabinet somewhere, that would tell me the if and the how.

but yeah its a Sega game from the Saturn generation. You could even get the twin stick controllers. The sequel got an arcade in Japan only, and you could get it on the dreamcast... They made twinsticks for the dreamcast too. The dreamcast version was rereleased in HD on xbox live arcade... I highly recommend checking it out.

did more work on the KI2 machine today:

paint completely removed from one side:



New Marquee cut and mounted:



All the debris and junk parts removed from the cabinet (sill needs a vacuum) and new power supply installed



I got the game board in and I tested it on another cabinet, works MINT!
sadly the reproduction control panel graphics I bought don't fit so the control panel is on hold until I find a good original replacement.

KI2 update...
http://forums.arcade-museum.com/show...7&postcount=20





I'm still having some monitor issues that need to be fixed before the game is playable. Cosmetically I have some paint touch up to do as well as installing the new T-Molding and then finding new art work for the control panel.

That's a lovely machine mate. I'm well jelly!

Speaking of KI I remember the original KI in my arcade when it just came out. On the demo it mentioned Ultra 64 and I pooped my pants thinking this is what the forthcoming Nintendo 64 was capable of.... unfortunately it turned out this wasn't the case lol.
