An official thread for "should I pick this game up?" posts?

(1/3) > >>

Jeff AMN:
What do you guys think of having an official thread somewhere for people who are looking for advice about whether or not they ship pick up a cabinet in their area? I see a lot of threads about this, and I think it would be helpful to keep the board cleaner and also a fun thread to look through to see what type of finds people are coming upon.

With that said, I think I'll start!  ;D

This Omega Race is listed locally for $150. The claim is that it's in great condition except for a sound issue that's most likely a "short in a wire" somewhere. As long as it's not a monitor issue, it might be an easy fix, right? Does this look like a good score? I like the idea of saving the vectors.

Angry_Radish:
If the monitor is working, I'd snap it up at that price.
I doubt it's a "short", probably a board issue, but I'd still get it.
(though my opinion may be skewed, as omega race is on my "grail" list)  ;D

lanman31337:
First, from a fellow Jeff, it's an excellent idea.  Second, definitely a good score.  I'm sure one of the guys on here can help troubleshoot the sound once you get it.  It would be good if people can post pics, that way we can see goodness/damage, if it's a different cab than an original, etc...

Jeff AMN:
Well, I contacted the seller, but I haven't heard back yet. Hopefully it's not too late, huh?

ChadTower:

At $150 it's a no brainer even if nothing currently works.  Great condition vector game.  Purchase.
