Maybe it was a SFA3 when you got your hands on it, but in a former life it was probably either a TMNT or a Simpsons. That's a Konami wide cabinet.

I saw a set of Simpsons sideart on ebay if you want to restore it completely. If you just wanna make it a SFA3 again, though, that's up to you.

Close... It was a Crime Fighters game by Konami, but i'm going to make it my multi jamma fighting game cabinet(6 button layout).

It will soon feature:

1. Street Fighter Alpha 3
2. Tekken Tag Tournament
3. ?
4. ?

let me know what games you would put in the last 2 spots.

I'd put in a Soul Edge or Soul Calibur in there. If you want to add an original MK, I could probably round up a board for that. I'm also a big fan of the Street Fighter EX series, but alot of people don't seem to like it as much.

3. Neo Geo MVS mobo (with Last Blade 2 most of the time, were it me)
and...um...
4. Maybe Daraku Tenshi or a Dead or Alive?

Actually, I was outbid on a Soulcalibur kit,
and I have already secured a 4-slot Neo Geo machine from a local operator friend

 I like Street Fighter EX series, it's a lot like Tekken, what about Virtua Fighters? Are they good?

I was never much of a Virtua Fighter fan. I'm all about KI, but those aren't cheap.

Any more horizontal game suggestions? It does not have to be a fighter.

Well if you're using a CPS2 or NeoGeo you'll be able to switch out games on the fly and not be limited to just a few.

For CPS2 I highly recommend Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo and Super Gem Fighters: Mini Mix. I don't think either or cheap, though.

I'd throw at least one puzzle game in there, though.

Or you could wait to see if it floats.  They you could name it "Noah's Arcade".

(my guess says it wont float, but then again, I would never guess an aircraft carrier would float :) ).

Looks good so far.  What color are you going to paint it?

Actually, as good as that game is, i'd avoid capcom play system 3 stuff at all costs unless you know how to proprally swap the securety cart battery.  The problem is if that battery dies, kiss sf3ts goodbye ;D  If you want that game in the cab, hack a dreamcast, or a ps2, whatever.
