the.golden.ax Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 The idea on this one is a grab lot of goodies. Nothing broken, nothing worthless. I'm basically going to put $50 worth of video games and accessories in each box and the price is a cool $30 shipped. It will range from Atari to Xbox and everything in between. The family got a new-to-us Arcade cabinet yesterday (a 25" vertical) that came with Strikers 1945 III. We got the darn thing home, and my boys 8 and 6 were ready to go. Got the thing all adjusted up, ran for less than a minute and the PCB fried out. Tried the board in another machine, and no dice. Tried other horizontal games in the vertical cab and they weren't working until I adjusted the voltage pot on the power supply. I think the Strikers got fried by too much voltage. So this long story short, I'm hoping to raise the funds for a mutli-jamma vertical PCB unit I've got my eye on, and put a smile back on my kids faces. Everyone here is really gloomy right now. The majority of the goodies in the boxes of "not" crap will come directly from my collection, and some may even be CIB games. 10 available (#11 spoken for) when they are sold out that's it. Please feel free to buy more than one. If you like Sega, or Nintendo, or Atari, you can even specify and I'll sway that way when pulling titles I can live without this is going to be a bargain, and meant to be a quick fundraiser, so please don't give me lists or specifics other than if you hope for a certain platform there will be some really good stuff in these. 1, bennybingo paid shipped 420071109101969010386855368709 2, thanatos paid shipped 420630179101969010386876865089 3, jtoubeaux paid shipped 420935619101969010386970891267 4, Cebus Capucinis paid 420871149101969010386888792007 5, frankodragon paid 420530809101969010386982992457 6, Raskar42 paid shipped 420900429102969010386447975574 7, ManCaveArcade paid 420165069101969010386982992433 8, aikainnet paid 9, Mark T paid shipped 420080219101969010386855586295 10, HatefulGravey paid shipped 420304619101969010386918767180 11, TJB paid 420782169101969010386888620577 Going to post the project and saga of the 25" cabinet over here for progress and updates: http://www.atariage....__fromsearch__1 P.S. Chris C., and Tim H. I know you are both supposed to get a BOC8. Chris I just wanted to give you something a little different since your first box was similar to the second you would have gotten. Tim, buddy have been such a friend, I was already planning a box of "not" crap in your honor for your BOC8. It will be along shortly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wolfe Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) cool idea, good luck with it. wanna see photos of the cab. it'd be nice if you could put a neogeo board in there, that would play strikers wouldn't it? I think they put that on the 100-in-one cart. Edited April 3, 2012 by Mark Wolfe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the.golden.ax Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 cool idea, good luck with it. wanna see photos of the cab. it'd be nice if you could put a neogeo board in there, that would play strikers wouldn't it? I think they put that on the 100-in-one cart. I put a neo in it for the minute to test that it is now working, but it's a vertical cab so it's running windjammer sideways. The pic is off the eBay listing. Used a $73 eBay bux certificate, and sold a bunch of broken PS1/N64 consoles to one guy yesterday covering the purchase. It was great to get a new cabinet. The seller was only and hour away, and my head gasket repair seems to have held (radiator is full!) wanted to take a drive to try it out.

Mark Wolfe Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) niiiice, are you gonna modify it much or keep it pretty straight forward? Strikers is one of my all time favorite top scrolling shooters. something about the artwork, the animation, just way better than a lot of the other stuff that is out there and not so overly complicated and hard, like GigaWing, which looks really nice but is a bitch to play well. really good deal you got there either way. you could easily refurb and flip it for 5-6 times what you paid for it Edited April 3, 2012 by Mark Wolfe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the.golden.ax Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 Thanks for all the help guys. I got the 465 - in - 1 vertical PCB ordered up. There is only one slot left if someone wants to jump on this. I'm going to get the first 6 out of here this morning if possible since I'm up early, if I can make it (I have enough postage for six anyway, if I can beat the mail pick-up request I already have scheduled).
