Title: Need Help ID'ing Arcade Cabinet
Post by: jjohnston2004 on September 06, 2014, 08:32:01 pm
Hey Everyone,

I picked up a cab but need to ID it...is this just a generic cab or perhaps its a Bally/Midway?

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
John

Man, I can't find it, but I recall that Cheffo Jeffo posted a pic of different cabinet profiles and their manufacturers.  Anyone?

They're somewhat well hidden.   ;D

File Repository -- keyword "Silhouettes" yields 8 results.

Bally/Midway cabs.

After looking through the 8 "Silhouettes" images in Files Repository, none of them look promising.   :dunno

Is there a serial number plate on the back or an info sheet on the inside of the back door?

My gut instinct on seeing your original photos is that it's a Sega/Gremlin machine.  I wonder if silhouettes are available for that line?

Thanks for all of your research -- the best i could tell this was a NAMCO tekken cab.

It came as a Tekken Tag cab with absolutely no artwork.

I've seen it as a tekken 4 cab -- not sure who makes it, don't know if NAMCO made cabinets.

Thanks,
John
