There was one of these on the Ottumwa CL a few years ago.  It was a DK that had been converted to a Street Heat.  Makes me wonder if that was a conversion specifically designed for the Nintendo cabinet?

It is ugly no matter how you slice it though.

Interesting you'd seen one. If it was a common conversion it doesn't look well planned, looks like you can barely get your fingers between the wheel and the bezel. Agreed it's ugly as ---fudgesicle---.

This is only the second or third one I've seen and I had the exact same reaction you did the first time.  WTF????   ;D

Not only was it designed for the cabinet it actually reused the nintendo boards.

Funny... I saw a Tapper this morning that was converted to a police trainer!  :dizzy: Crazy Conversions all around!
