Mario Bros. must look strange on a vertical monitor—though I guess it would be pretty close to a 19" image when rotated 90 degrees and letterboxed. I'm surprised they didn't do it the other way around, i.e., a 25" horizontal monitor. Then the two vertical games would look about the same size as they originally did, and you'd have a bigger display for the only 2-player game of the three. Plus 25" horizontal looks good, but 25" vertical tends to look too big.
How close are the cabinets to original Nintendo classic cabinets in terms of dimensions, materials, method of construction, etc.? And what type of joysticks and buttons do they use?
Ken Layton:
Yes the Mario Bros does look funny as a horizontal image on vertical mounted monitor.
I did a double take when they first brought this game into the theater. Externally it looks like a Donkey junior (orange color). It has a nice lexan control panel overlay. It's Jamma wired. The gameboard is same size as the 48 in 1's. This one had a Neo Tec 2500 monitor in it. Comes with a Happ Controls over/under coin door. Cabinet is very sturdy and is deeper because of the 25" monitor. I don't think it's as deep as a Ms pac/Galaga though.

Translation : We think we can get more for it on ebay...
Glad to see they re-released it.
I think it would do better if they would have put VS. Super Mario Bros on it instead of regular Mario Bros though.
That one in a Pac Man style cabinet just looks WRONG !

How can they offer free shipping on this?!? Isn't freight shipping like 200 bucks... hell if they'll chop 200 off the price I'll come pick it up tonight!
Edit: the more I look at this the more shady it looks!

Then they would have had to use two different types of joysticks (4-way and 8-way). ;)
