Hey there,

Thanks a lot for taking your time to answer my call on coin-op bartop cabinet.

I do mobile games at day time, live near bar with Street Fighter 2 machine, and wish to build mobile competitive arcade.

We've chatted about solar-powered bicycle with an arcade cabinet.

2 players
4 usb slots for 2 keybords and 2 mices
2 cup holders
ashtray
coin-op
~400W solar power bike\backpack-mounted panel - optional


If anything, I'll be glad to get any 2 players Tekken 6> bartop cabinet you might have, preferable with coin-op.

Please let me know when would be the best time to come over and talk about 30% advance maybe?

Thanks!

You still gotta mount that ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- on bicycle handlebars and add 2 "mices".

In his friends bar apparently. But according to him it is busy only 3 nights a week which is why he wants to be able to make up his money back by having it on his bike....????????

Oh and he wants it to be a tekken 6 machine or something, I honestly lost track of all the ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---, and sent me this link

So that it can still be coin op.
