I wanted to pick up that and the Asteroids that was there...someone I know saw them on the Friday and told me both were working...
Anyway, nice grab...are you going to restore it?

If that Asteroids was working then somebody (Grauwulf?) got a huge deal (went for $25), but my bet was that neither worked as both were labelled as hardware and would have been front and center in building 2 to keep the price up. I guess RayB would know. I didn't plug either in as the cords for most machines in the truck were hidden/missing.
Sinner -- we've never met, but were you talking to "Mike" (he's an op ... I forget his last name) by Building 1 during the first part of the auction ?
Cheers.

Yeah, could be... was he talking to a big dude??? and I don't mean tall...if so, it was probably me...

Also measurements if you can, I am interested in making a replica or a cabaret-style cab using an Atari cabaret as a model. Thank you.

If you want small, I'd recommend the Midway style with 13" instead. This thing, though narrower and shorter is still 220 lbs and as deep as a full upright.

You know, I want to make a Ms.Pacman cabaret also... ;D
I do love the Centipede cabaret though, I am not really concerened with getting it small. I just want some dimensions so I can style my cabinet just like it. I would put a 19" or 21" PC monitor in it so I would probably need it to be that deep still.
I was gonna just get a bunch of pics off the web and create my own dimensions. But if I at least have some accurate dimensions, I can create the proper proportions for it.
I was gonna also build an upright Centipede replica, until I scored an upright Centipede cab at the SuperAuctions 2 weekends ago. ;D :cheers:

Update: Plays blind. No glow in monitor neck tube.
