Ok, here's the deal. I've got (2) Superbreakout cabinets that I'm
going to be smashing and putting out for the trashman by Tue morning.
If anyone wants one or both, they are FREE to whoever gets here
first...I will not ship these....come and get them. They are both in
pretty good shape. I have pics of both too if needed. I have stripped
the monitor, power supply and marquee off one so all that's left on it
is the control panel. The other one has the control panel and marquee,
but that's it. The wiring harneses and pcb metal case are in both. I
have a monitor that can be used in the game that works but needs a cap
kit that I will include if interested for $25. I'm located in
Valparaiso, IN 46383. COME AND GET 'EM!! ANY TIME IS FINE!

Thanks!

I offered him some cash to hold them, he instantly agreed I am picking them up this weekend. I have pictures if anyone wants to see them. Now... what do I do with them without the PCBs? Any advice? Maybe Arkanoid?

I've heard arkanoid is still one of the most popular games for location (non violent goes over big these days in restaraunts:-) , and for private owners.. you'd probably get your money back and more more if you decided to restore them to a breakout style game...

Yea, I wish that I could find a Super Breakout PCB, but I am beginning to think they are very rare :(
