Ready to build City Connection, what style cabinet to use.
« on: June 27, 2012, 10:30:40 pm »
Ok, I finished my Multi-Pac cabaret today and it is time to move on to the next project, which will be a City Connection machine. City Connection is an incredibly rare bird in the real world and there isn't a complete machine known to exist anywhere (there are a few dozen boards circulating, most bootleg and broken).

I have one of the few known working original boards, a hand built jamma adapter and a marquee my wife printed me on her banner setup at work. I can have her print me a control panel overlay once I complete my panel.

Here are the cabinets I have to choose from, all are in fairly nice condition.

Sega Cabinet, Zaxxon style. (currently a working video trivia).

Sega Cabinet, Hustle style. (currently a Hustle that is never going to work)

Pole Position II (non-working, would have to do a joystick panel conversion).

Nichibutsu Crazy Climber Deluxe cabinet without the fiberglass control panel (currently a working video trivia).

Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.
