General thoughts of japanese candy cabinets?

<< < (5/5)

TOK:
I think they look like someone MAMEd a washing machine.
The idea of a large monitor in a regular sized cab is the only thing about them that is appealing to me.

Absolutely - and don't forget:  Our japanese friends and cabinet designers are shorter than us in most other countries so they don't sit down to play these.  They know what they're doing.

Wait - I'm thinking about midgets and Ooompa Looompas, but it's the same thing.   >:D

All kidding aside, I do love candies and have 2 m'self.  Constantly fighting not to get a 3rd that will become my 1st dedicated Dreamcast cabinet.

I love mine.

Not as much as my Crazy Climber, but more than my Vindicators.

Circo:
My first mame cab was a Jaleco Mark II candy cab.  Once i found short enough barstools to fit it I was fine.  I was going to keep it after I got the new Slikstik cab but the room just wasn't there.  However it was a great cab your just a bit limited with control panel options due to the size.
