Wow....this just exemplifies the worst possible uses of these multi-game boards.  Build them into any POS box and use the games as a means of bringing in the highest price for it. 

Not good at all.

Square buttons...some 1970's style joystick, 12" monitor...yup a thing of beauty.  The funny thing is this guy put this piece of ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- on ebay originally.   I offered $70.00 if he'd take the 39-in-1 out,  mail it to me along with photos of the cabinet burning.  I didn't get a reply.

Also weak: giving us a mystery subject line followed by an OP containing nothing but a mystery link.  That cab does look pretty awesome, though.

shmokes  >:D Lighten up Francis.

Anyway, if someone wanted a small arcade I think an 8liner cabinet could accommodate it if properly modified.

In fact its a pretty good idea.

But square jump/fire buttons, green paper & a 12" monitor for $550?

weak (that was for you shmokes:-)

The guy couldn't even be bothered to rotated the friggin pics!  I'm sure he didn't cut any corners on wiring the thing up inside...  ::)

I was totally kidding about it being an awesome cabinet.  It's hideous.   ;D  And on the mystery subject lines . . . that's just one of my pet peeves.  I'm always giving people ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- for it.  Just ignore me.   ;)

Looks like a good candidate for Hellcade, even though it's probably not a classic that was converted...it definitely looks like hell ;D

Rightly so. Somebody has to do it, regardless of its effect.

I was hoping for a rick-roll...
