Title: Which monitor came with this cabinet (Beach Head)?
Post by: ghettodish on November 29, 2008, 04:39:45 am
I brought this cabinet home a couple of weeks ago. It didn't come with a monitor. I would like to install the correct monitor but I can't seem to find out which one this cabinet came with. There is a Beach Head sticker inside from 2002.

Anyone out there have this game?

That is a Global VR Pup Cabinet.

Most were outfitted with a 29" VGA monitor, usually the Kortek KT-2938 (Happ rebranded them as well, but I can't remember their model number).

The cabinet was pretty much made to be a MAME cab--VGA monitor, Happ Controls keyboard encoder, audio amp, etc.  When it's stock as a Beach Head, you can pretty much just drop a PC in there and be good to go.

May I ask why you parted one out? That's essentially a brand new game...

I have a 29/27" vga monitor but it didn't fit the mounts. Guess I'll measure the bolt pattern and compare it to the specs at Happ until I find the one that fits.
