Afternoon all,

I have just been lurking around ebay at lunch time and came across this (pic from add so poor quality).......

The seller mentioned it is an old Deco Cassette System but the cassette loader has been removed.

If I decide to buy this should I restore the cab ( im not 100% as to what game the instruction card is, I will find out more once I hear back from the seller)

or......  should i mame it. the screen works and so do the controls.

Any thoughts on what the instruction cards refer to, I have a feeling its burger time?

all the best, David

My vote is for mame it.

There is an expansion card kit for the Deco system that replaces the tape loader and turns it into a multigame.

I used to have one of those. The only really good game out of the 8 or so that I had was Burgertime. I sold it in the late 90s on rgvam. The night before a fellow came down from San Francisco to Santa Barbara, during my last play time with the game, it broke. I gave the guy a discount.

Long story short: tape media was unreliable 15 years ago, how much more so today? I fear that the machine would be a headache.

But, if there is a kit for it that doesn't use tapes, that might be swell!

Since it is a vertical monitor I would put a 60-in-1 card in it. It would require some rewiring, but way less efforts than going the MAME track.
