FS: Arch Rivals game. Great Shape in WI - NOW PARTING OUT!!!

<< < (3/5) > >>

SirPoonga:
What type of games do you play?  Would you need trackball and more than 3 buttons? 
It's pretty easy to convert a cabinet to play mame without modifying it.  It just depends on what your needs are.

FrizzleFried:
I'd be all over MAMEing that sucker...not like it is a classic or anything.  Look at the size of the CP... and the straight up/down monitor is great for light guns...

sewerrat:
I was going to do the standard 2 joys, 6 buttons each with a trackball in the middle.
I'm not sure why though, since I don't play fighter games I'm having a hard time justifying more than 4 buttons, but thought I'd build for maximum flexibility.
Maybe you guys are right and I should just MAME it and be done . . the CP does seem to be the ideal size.  Hmmmmmmmm . . decisions, decisions.

And you are right Frizzle, the monitor orientation and CP shape/size is what attracted me to the machine.

FrizzleFried:
Upgrade to a 27" monitor... drop in 2 joys,  6 buttons,  a trackball and spinner and you are set...

Hell,  you could even keep the Arch Rivals theme instead of trying to make a MAME theme...

Maybe even come up with some custom Arch Rivals CP art to accomodate the new CP layout...

27"???  A 19" fits perfect with the current bezel.  You really think I can squeeze a 27" in there?
I do like the arch rivals theme . .hmm . . maybe somebody can vectorize the Nintendo box art to use as side art . .that'd be sweet.
