Cabinet to Gut Question
shardian:
Pit Fighter is a borderline game mainly because it is a crappy cabinet. Much like SFII, it is a dedicated cabinet, but not really. It is a generic black cabinet with square decals on the side, and a very generic original overlay. There was no designer "love" put into the game, and thus isn't really a restoration candidate.

I know that, but it's also a horrible, horrible game. Wasn't a lot of love in the programming either, IMO. ;)
I mean, if I were gutting it, I'd save the board and anything else to hand off to some poor, tortured soul who was interested in the game for some diabolical reason.

I remember when Pitfighter was ported to the SNES, and they made a huge deal out of how it had digitized graphics in it... Would have been better if it had cell drawn graphics, it would have been much more playable...

That's funny. I was going to post the exact same thing (including the two "horribles"). I wouldn't be surprised if the saying "Good graphics doesn't necessarily = good gameplay" was coined with Pit Fighter in mind.
