| Omega Race: What are all the problems I'll have? |
| (1/1) |
| Necro:
I've tiptoed around this, so I figured I just flat out ask the question that I want to know and that my wife wants me to figure out before buying something. I would appreciate minimizing the 'Don't mod the cab' because the person I'd be acquiring it from would do much more modification that I ever would. My plan is to take the cab, replace the monitor with a computer monitor or TV and used the mirror setup. The blacklight will be used for certain games and then turned off for others so the mirror is fully reflective. I would use multiple swappable control panels. One control panel for fighters, one for classics (w/spinner), and one for a trackball. While I could do all of the above with a Dynamo or 'universal' type cab, the main issue I have is that the cabinet does not look 'cool' or classic in any sense. Adding art will cost a significant amount of cash (control panel, marquee, bezel, and side art seems to come up to at least $200). Added benefit being that if I don't mod the cabinet and reverse what I've done, I should be able to resell it - even for a minor profit after cleaning it up and fixing up the nicks and dings. Thanks to everyone...I need to make a decision on this... (There is an auction here next month, but I don't think asking the guy who has the Omega Race to hold it for a month is realistic) |
