If it's working don't mame that please. buy it and use it for the game itself.  2 player or 3 player?


build a mame cab instead

It is worth too much to Mame if it is working. $300-$600.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

I agree, if it's a working original, don't mame it.  

If it's a poor conversion ... well, people will love to buy the working wheels, buttons & pedals, and even the control panel. [shrug]


If it's an original, you could buy it and reproduce it, using the reproduction as the mame cab.  Then fix up the original and sell it.

2 player or 3 player?

Championship sprint is the two player version.  It could be a conversion, but even working conversions can go for $300 and up.

Thanks guys I did not think it would be worth that much .If I can ever get the guy to return my e-mail I will go pick it up .

I realy want to build a cocktail cab for MAME so I will keep this one to play and if I need the money I can sell it to help fund the cocktail.

I will post pics of it when I get it.

how can I tell if it is original?

thanks again

If it is in a system II cabinet, then it is original, otherwise it is not. Just look for the full sideart. Picture attached.

Also, it is not a suitable candidate for Mameage anyway, due to the fact that it has a medium res monitor instead of a standard res one.
