I don't need the others that were in the lot.
Golden Tee 2003 Fore (3 of them).
Wizard Fire
Legion
Anyone need them?
-
Don't make me slap u paige.............
I love ya but if ur gonna put that thing on a mame cab ur gonna get it :police: lol
On a second note what would be funny is selling a mame cab on ebay and saying it's the new ultracade that plays 2000+ games then send the link to mr ultrapoo himself hehe ;D
-
Oh, I am SO putting it on my machine if it fits. I'm not SELLING my machine, but I'll put the marquee on there. I just think it is ironic and funny to do so.
-
I will have to stop by and see that the next time I'm in St. Louis! Which is in just a couple of short weeks.... ;D

It's irony on a base level...but I like it!

I think you should scan it, and upload it to the Vector library for all to use... :)

Due to unfair competition, we respectfully request that you cease and desist your use of our marquee in your cabinet.

Okay, I'm done. That's the funniest thing I'm going to see all day. Going back to bed now.

It would probably not be a great idea to give that guy a legal reason to go after the Vector Art Library.
Of course, if it were hosted somewhere else...
-
Hey paige what do you want for the Golden Tee marquee?
-
I'd be interested in one of the Golden Tee marquees as well.
-
That's great Paige.
-
Actually, it does my heart good to know that somewhere there's an Ultracade that's been converted into something else.
-S
-
That last bit was really funny.
I actually have a vector ultracade logo... I ain't gonna post it though.
Somebody should put it on brandsoftheworld.com. heh. Ain't gonna be me, though.
-
Oh, and can you post a tutorial on your process for ultracading your mame machine... something like;
1. Remove all style from current machine, etc, etc.
-
I won't want much for the other marquees, let me wait until they arrive so I can check their condition first.
-
I think that is great. We need to get that thing scanned, passed around and as many pictures taken to send to David Foley...

I say put the marquee on a Mame cabinet and sell it. Give those stinkfaces at UltraCRAP a taste of how it feels to have the name of your product hijacked. ;D
-
Put it on upside down.

Put it on upside down.
Darryl
LMAO. That's GREAT!!
-
I'll take the third Golden Tee marquee if it isn't already spoken for...
-
Ok, I got it in today, it was a PERFECT FIT for my cabinet, only had to trim a half inch on the sides, the height was perfect. I got lucky with the size as the marquee area of my cabinet combines tall and wide in a way that makes most original marquees not fit.

The Golden Tee marquees are in fine shape. Does $8 each (shipped), sound fine for those who were interested? Marquee number one and two have been purchased by American Demon and Chris. Walls83 has a day or so to pay or decline the last one, otherwise it will be available.
-
I can just see Foley sending you a cease and desist letter requesting its removal as people are now expecting a better cabinet. ;D

Thats the fun thing, my marquee is completely legal, it is an original marquee purchased from an operator who converted his poorly earning Ultracade!!!!

Needs a wheel-based front end :)

I plan on setting one up, just need to download the latest Ultrastyle and then cut down the rom list to a manageable number (last I checked Ultrastyle SUCKED with big gamelists).
-
Maybe when I have finsihed building my Centipede replica, I can build an Ultracade replica ;D

Except you'd never get anything for it. ;)
btw, that is the best looking Ultra I've seen. Are you going to ebay it? Heheh.
-
That's just hilarious...
-
That's great.
Again Paige, you bring the best.
nice cab BTW. never thought I could get joy from looking at an ultracade, but you found a way.
ny
-
I'd rather play Turbo!
-
for heaven sakes Paige, get that off of there, you've just de-faced that cab! :P
-
Nice!!! Put that marquee on up-side down! :) :) :)
-
Now if someone made that Ultracade banner with the pile of poo.... now that would be funny. Someone should print that out and send it to good ol Ultracade....
-
Maybe someone should build another Trashcade and attach the Ultracade marquee to it.
-
put some of that rubber dog crap on the spinner shaft, and I think we got something here. ;D
-
What exactly is holding that marquee in place? I can't tell from the pics.

Wood trim.
-
hey Paige, you wanna just stir up the heat a bit ?
For it up for BID on e-bay ;D
-
I just saw the pic...
Thanks man, I laughed hard enough to snort my coffee... ;)
-
No offense but that's a pretty ugly marquee.
-
Makes no sense to me. You folks hate the guy and yet give him play. Every complaint only gives him that much more power, and putting that marquee on a decent cab only lowers a project you worked hard to complete.
Take it outside, piss on it, and be finished.

You mean you ruined a classic marquee by trimming it :o
that's one less marquee for the collectors out there ::)
-

or take it for a Target Pratice and put HOLES in it
-
Use it for toilet paper...
-
All 3 Golden Tee marquees were shipped to their respective buyers today.

You obviously don;t see the humor in it. I find it hilarious!

Here is a picture I took especially for all my lawyer friends.
Mame (Trademark Mamedev), Cabinet (probably Trademark Mameroom.com), running the unreleased game "Homercide" (TM Dave Widel), which is a variant of PacMan (TM Namco), which runs on Midway (TM WMS Gaming) hardware and features characters from "The Simpsons" (TM 20th Century Fox), and there is a bootleg Space Pilot board (illegal copy of Time Pilot, TM Konami) sitting there next to it just for fun and the whole thing has an Ultracade (TM Ultracade.com) marquee on it.
See how rediculous it is to have to mention a trademark every time you say the word?
-
paige, you are evil.

Of course he is... look at the evil grin on that avatar!

hahahahaha ;D
Paige, you are my hero.
EDIT: what is homercide? Unreleased obviously.. but I've never heard of it. Was it just Pac with Simpsons characters?? I'd love some more info :)
-
It is a major reworking of Pac-Man, more than just Simpsons characters. Most complex Pac-Variant I have ever played. The rom will be released soon, and the game will be on the upcoming Mad-Pac multi-pac kit.

Paige,
Found ya some side art (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=6185614029) ;D

Better hit up that seller fast for the side art. He has MAME in the subject heading... so its bound to get pulled.

I already bid, and got outbid. I don't want to mess my cabinet up enough to raise my bid again.
