Asteroids Cab violated, should I save it.

Sad to see and I am considering restoring the appearance. But it would be a MAME cab when I'm done. Just look identical to the original.

I would say no as it looks like they replaced the vector display monitor. ---smurfy--- buzz, although it would still make a nice mame machine.

I would say yeah!  I'm working with a Space Duel cabinet and I love the 'generic' space scenes for the side art.  I say generic as in there are no characters or words on it.

Yes, restore the appearance and MAME it.  It has already been violated, so no harm in MAMEing it if it will look like an Asteroids.
