Title: Wanted: Daytona USA Twin Arcade (Ohio)
Post by: Kdubski on December 07, 2012, 10:21:02 am

Hi,

I'm looking to buy a Daytona USA twin racing arcade.  The game can be in working or non working condition but I'd prefer one that is in pretty decent cosmetic shape although I'm not opposed to a project machine either; no water damage please.  I'm located in North East Ohio and would like to find a unit locally that I can pick up (within an hour or so).  If you have one that you're looking to sell, please let me know.  And of course pictures and price are always helpful.  Thanks!

I have an extra Twin that I'm looking to sell. I had three Twins at one time. I'm down to two, but I recently moved one into storage to make room for some new games. I have decided that I'd like to go ahead and let it go to someone new and just be content with head-to-head racing from here on out.

Cosmetic condition is generally good. Everything works and the game is playable. Here's a picture of the last time I had my two remaining Twins setup together:

I know you can't see a whole lot there since I wasn't taking that picture with any particular purpose. I can get the machine out, set it up, and take some pictures specifically for you to get a better idea of its condition if you are interested.

If you're at all familiar with these games, you may know that the ROM boards tend to crap out and cause all sorts of random problems. Mine has been known to do that after it has been on for a couple hours. If you shut it off for a bit and turn it back on, it seems to do fine for a while again. I was going to send the board out for repair, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

I'm in Noblesville, just northeast of Indianapolis. Is that local enough for a pickup? I've got about $1000 in it. So maybe we can start there on price.

Ho,

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately, that is a much longer trip than my current schedule will allow.  I probably should have been clearer when I said "Local"; something within 100 miles is ideal, 150/200 miles would be pushing it.  Thanks again and good luck trying to sell the twin.
