Title: Found a few more. (UPDATE, fixed one already)
Post by: paigeoliver on July 27, 2004, 12:09:32 am
Picked up a few more this evening. The Gorf was $20 and empty (although externally it is only missing the joystick, although the lower marquee has been scraped and painted black). I know own Gorf in both upright and cocktail format.

The Super Hang-On was $30 and is complete. Power supply has good voltage and the red light comes on on the boardset, no game though. Boardset likely not working due to suicide battery. Luckily I HAPPEN to have an AKI (Analog control interface) board that I haven't used yet.

Super Hang-On is needlessly 30" wide. Had to take my basement door off, and I still had to squeeze the fiberglass top half to get it through the door. I would have taken it apart but it was dark out, late and it looked like it had already gotten that treatment 50 times anyway.

My basement is starting to look like a warehouse raid, there are like 12 games down there now.

I also popped in a bid on a Hang-On boardset on ebay, since Super Hang On has a suicide battery and hang on doesn't, and well, no one would REALLY notice or care if I had Hang-On running in a SHO cabinet.

I got outbid on the Hang-On boardset, but that is OK, since I have already pretty much got it up and running as Super Hang-On!
