Dynamo Gaming Console HS2
« on: November 03, 2020, 10:35:39 am »
I'm the proud new owner of this Dynamo Gaming console. It's a HS2 as per the tag on the back (picture attached). Wondering if anyone on here can give me the year it was built?

It's a model 2, which would be mid to late 80's possibly very early 90's if I remember correctly.  Basically after the Street Fighter II explosion all cabs got wider to accommodate all of those extra buttons.

Thanks!! Appreciate the quick reply. Any idea what this vintage cabinet is worth?

Without pics of the cabinet no, not really.  As with any collecting hobby condition is everything.  That being said dynamos are purpose built to be as generic as possible and they are quite common.

Thank you again! I don't plan on getting rid of it. Just curious. Looking forward to adding a proper arcade marquee and side art. Ask the best and stay safe!!
