Title: Beast Busters
Post by: reptileink on April 18, 2016, 04:57:56 pm

Can't figure out this cabinet:
(http://images.craigslist.org/00Z0Z_et4pdGu4Hep_600x450.jpg)

Seller's description: Classic 1988 beast buster arcade game works great for a old game needs a lil TLC but work as is is coin operated but its bypassed so play for free asking XXX or best text or email only

I know it was a 2 or 3 person "shooter" aka, had guns mounted. It's obviously a crap picture, and I could just contact the seller, but I am at work with no outside e-mail. It doesn't even appear the guns are missing as there are no holes. Unless this is supposed to be below the screen and the guns are further back? OOORRR, it was put into a different cabinet altogether with side guns???? I highly doubt it, but puzzling.  :dizzy:

Right, I found that much information, but it appears this cabinet is missing the gun box, yet the seller says it plays fine. I would assume the gun box separates from the rest of the cab?

"plays fine" to you might mean you can pewpew at the screen, see it, and hear it.

"plays fine" to the seller might mean the game boots, and you can both hear and see it.

best case scenario, it's there but currently detatched. might be worth checking out but if there are no guns you will have a he'll of a time getting that replaced and it wouldn't be worth the money to do so.
