Hey guys, I picked up an empty cab recently that I converted to a mame arcade and I noticed it still had some decals on the back door. Does anyone here know what arcade game this might have been before, I'm just curious. ;D |

Looks like it was made from scrap. I don't know of a single machine that has graphics on the back door. ;) (besides, those just make no sense aesthetically speaking ) Does it match anything that was on the sides of the cabinet when you first got it? |
| femartinez13:
no, actually there were no decals at all, just on the back, (that's what got me curious) the sides looked like they were painted black with that speckle paint stuff. It had no marquee, no control panel and it had a standard 2 player coin door. The machine is a beast so I thought at one time or another it might have been a 4 player game like tmnt or simpsons. |

Have you a few pics of the sides and front, someone will know by the shape, have you tried removing the black on the sides to see if the original artwork is underneath? |
| femartinez13:
yea I would probably have to sand the sides down to see if any decals are left but I don't want to ruin it, I kind of like that grainy old school look ;) I put some more pics but they are not that good so it might not help much. I did notice that on the coin door it has 50 cents instead of the usual 25 cents and when I look inside by the coin mech it has a date of 1993, so I don't know if thats the year made or the last time it was serviced? I actually plan on changing a few more things on my cab, like that x-arcade tankstick, I was able to find a real 4 player control panel taken from an arcade that I bought and will just use the x-arcade guts he he. thanks for the replies, keep em coming, I'm bored at work. |
