Title: What kind of cabinet is this?
Post by: Midway81 on May 15, 2009, 03:07:07 am

It comes with marvel vs capcom 2. It is just a generic cab i assume? Just studied up on this whole sega naomi thing, kinda interesting... Im really into dedicated cabs though. Guys asking $600 canadian.

Im looking at getting a new cab this weekend and its between the marvel vs capcom 2 above and virtua fighter seen here. I really like dedicated cabs and this one is mint. This one is $500. What do you think is a better choice?

I think you should offer him 500 for the mvc. That is a great looking cab, and you can always pop other naomi games into it which would make this machine quite a replayer. Naomi isn't even in mame yet, and the emulation is just getting going with nulldc, so you at leas have a few years before its going to be on your mame cab 100%.  Naomi and neo geo are great starter cabs, as you can always try different games in it.

The Marvel Vs. Capcom. Virtua Fighter uses a medium res monitor, which will complicate things if you ever want to switch games and will be more expensive to fix/replace if it craps out.

marvel vs. capcom 2. Better game, nice cab. And its NAOMI system...which has a TON of great arcade titles.

I would also go with the Marvel vs Capcom. It looks like it might be a bit bigger plus the Naomi system has a couple other good games with it.

That monitor could also be a Medium resolution too since Naomi supports both standard and medium res.

I'm pretty sure the cab is a super street fighter II - the new challengers
