Sharp model XM-180 IN Nintendo Monitor? 18"?

[Joemst13]

Hello,

I recently purchased a Playchoice 10 Machine and received along with it, (2) Sharp Model XM-180 IN monitors and one is in superb condition.  They are wired exactly as the Sanyo monitors inside the machine, and one displays perfect video and sound, the other has no picture.  The problem is that they are smaller than the 19" and do not fit into the brackets.  They measure 18" diagonal.  I reviewed previous posts on this board and have heard no mention of this model of monitor, only the XM2001.

Does anyone have a clue as to which Nintendo game these may have originally came from?  Thanks.

The Sharp XM-1801N is indeed 18" and were used only in the Nintendo "red tent" table games. All Nintendo upright game cabinets used either a Sanyo 20-EZ (20") or a Sharp XM-2001N (20"). So it would appear that you have the wrong size monitors for your cabinet. You should have had the XM-2001N monitors installed not 1801's.

Thanks alot!!  I guess I was unclear in my first post.  I received these Sharp monitors as extra parts with my machine.  The PC10 has the Sanyo 20 Z2AW's installed.  Did all of the "red tent" games use the Sharp 18" monitors?  I want to sell these monitors and make sure I have at least some clue as to who might need them.

Yes, all the red tent table games used the 18" monitors. It's the only size that fits.
