A Pit-Fighter cabinet bought
Raitsa:
Just bought my first dedicated cabinet, a Pit-Fighter in ok shape.
Made by Atari in Ireland in 1990.
Any opinions, is this one worth restoring or shall i just go for full on Mameing...?

Billy_Goatfeet:
I would have to be a hardcore Pit Fighter fan to restore it. If it were me, I would Mame it but that is sure to upset many folks here.
:soapbox:
I guess it depends on if you would be satisfied playing one game (or other JAMMA board that might work) or thousands.
My 2 cents...
Sylpher:
If it were a game I personally cared more about I would say restore, but unless you have some undying love for Pit Fighter I would go with MAME.
TOK:
Most people hate this game. Thats a real nice one though, and I think it'd be a shame to hack it up.
Jack Burton:
I think this game would get old very fast if you just kept it a dedicated machine.
The best compromise would be to restore it all the way, then buy a Jamma switch and JPAC and install them with a MAME PC. The existing controls would still be very conductive to playing hundreds of games.
