I don't judge what other people decide to do and no hard feelings intended. R-type is just kind of my holy grail LOL so my first reaction is to :cry: at the thought of her getting parted out on ebay or something. With this one being in such good shape though he should be able to find someone on here to do at least an even trade for a DK.
My advice is to ask around here on the forums first before making any changes. There's a lot of good honest people here.

Thats what I have decided to do. I honestly had no idea this cab was rare and didn't want to upset people by mame'ing it. Everyone keeps saying I should have found a cheap cabinet to mame....well thats what I did. I went on craigslist, and found this for cheap. I have decided to not change anything on this so if someone DOES find me a comparable Donkey Kong machine, we can trade.
No worries guys, I won't mess with this one.

That's very good news. :cheers: I hope that you soon find another cab. But as you are not that much out of pocket until now, why don't you restore R-Type ánd have another cab for Mame? You will experience a lot of help from us with your R-Type restoration project. And I assure you that you will get very fond of the game.
Anyway, glad to hear that you will respect the classic R-Type :applaud:
And now we sure can use a good laugh to celebrate the happy ending: http://www.wickedretarded.com/~crapmame/

I am very glad you have decided to not Mame this. I'll also be happy to help you find something locally. Between here, KLOV, and RGVAC I'm sure there's something. FL is practically an arcade Mecca, aside from New England.
Shame you're not in NE, I can think of several Nintendo cabs available for peanuts here right now.
EVAWINGZERO:
As bad as it sounds, I'm not interested in r-Type at all. I have never been a fan of that series. I wish that there were several if any DK Machines here in FL. I saw a pristine DK 3 cab on craigslist ONCE, and by the time I called, it was already gone.....
If you guys can, please keep an eye out for me. I want one that is at least in the same condition as my R-Type is.
Thanks again

Anyone in the west Palm Beach area want to do a trade for this?
