Geeze that's very cheap. I imagine you could swap in other namco racers from that period too into that cabinet. You made out like a bandit off of someone not very literate reading that ebay posting nightmare. I'm shocked they let it go at that price.

Recently I got the arcade bug (thanks GameBoyRicky ) and have been looking for another cabinet. Brad (Soera) told me about one that a guy he knew had for sale. Well today we finally went to go check it out and I just had to have it. It fires right up and the monitor is nice and bright with no burn in. It does need a little cleaning and a new decal set, other than that it is in pretty good shape.

I was messaging shipwrekd back and forth Saturday and he decided to come up to OKC and pick up a 4 foot tall Mario statue that was on my Craigslist. When he showed up he had this in his truck and made me give him big monies for it.

I have not purchased one single thing locally in over a month so yesterday we went to a couple flea markets and game stores. I didn't buy much but I think I will take him with me more often because I saw more stuff in the wild yesterday than I had seen in a long time. He bought every video game in OKC but he did manage to drop a few scraps for me. I picked up these few GameCube things for about $30.00. Thanks Charlie, it was a blast!!!

Finally, I had some luck today! I was browsing Tulsa Craigslist early this afternoon when I couldn't believe my eyes, a real life NES Sharp TV with 13 games!!! I messaged the seller at about 2:00 PM today, 30 minutes after it was listed, and told them I would take it. I checked my email about every 10 minutes and didn't get a respnse for a few hours so I was almost certain that I missed out. The TV was about 45 minutes North of Tulsa and I had the day off tomorrow so I said screw it, I need to visit my buddy that lives pretty close so I packed my bag and headed that way. I was just pulling into town right after 8:00 PM when my phone rang...finally!!! I told him that I was nearby and I could be there in less than 10 minutes so he said OK, come on over.

We talked for a few minutes and long story short, I got the TV and 13 games for a Benjamin. He said he had a N64 for sale too so I said I would look at. He said he wanted a SNES and I just happened to have one with some games in my van. We ended up trading straight across for the systems and I got a couple Mario Party games, StarFox, Duke Nukem, Mario Kart, Mortal Kombat and a few others so I was happy with that too.

Anyway, on to the pictures. Sorry for the crappy quality, I took them in my van in the dark about 30 minutes ago. The TV did not have the original controllers, remote or door but it does have all 4 feet. Someone get this man another icon!

Hah welcome to the club slick. Check the tv thread, I did write up a few little tips on adjusting it on the inside to get a nice picture if you feel it needs some tuning.

I have not had much to post about in here for a while but that changed today. I was in Wichita overnight and I saw a newly posted Craigslist ad for a PC 10. I quickly messaged the seller and within 15 minutes we had a meeting set up for this morning. I went to look at this morning, paid the guy and loaded it up. It is a dual monitor with the following games: Pro Wrestling, SMB, Gradius, Tennis, Rygar, Trojan, Duck Hunt, Golf, Track and Field and the Goonies. I will post some pictures when I get back home tomorrow. Needless to say I am super stoked. Suck it Wichita boys, you are too slow!

What is that you ask? How much? Three bills.

For $300 that's a great deal. A dual monitor with a full set of games? Just got an emotional boner over here Laser

I finally got home and got this beast unloaded. I am going to get it inside tomorrow, I just need to make some room for it. I couldn't get a good pic of the screen due to the glare but one from the listing is included. I need to adjust the #1 joystick, fix the gun (the wire has been cut), repaint the body and replace the front and side decals and she will look like new.
