How in the world can you play sf2 or darkstalkers on a sit down machine is all I wanna know.

2-player Street fighter 2 would suck on that thing...
I was never a big fan of cocktail arcade systems.

Most multi-game coctail cabinets have a dual 6/7 button controller on what would be the far side of the cabinet in the picture. Arcade PC Coctail (http://www.hanaho.com/products/ArcadePC/Mega/index.html), look as an example.

You could make your own for less than half that with 10x the games. Its cool, but not realistically priced.

As interesting as that is, it'd still be a pain in the ass. Look at how little romm there is for the left-side player. His hands would be slapping the cabinet. I'd much prefer a stand-up cabinet like yours. :wink:

If I were in the market for a cocktail arcade machine, I'd either want something expandable, or a genuine vintage machine. $2300 for 35 games just doesn't seem very CAG to me.

I was just posting for the heck of it.....thought it was interesting but overpriced.
My parents have a Centipede cocktail table....very nice. Although, I would want a Ms. Pac-Man one also.

If I were to buy an arcade unit, I would buy a cabinet with something I really enjoy. While that cocktail thing is cool, it doesn't have that genuine arcade feel...

Dude I bought an neo-geo converted cab for $103 on ebay. Slapped together a PC from leftover parts and bought a JAMMAPAC. I can play Pong to Pac-Man to Mortal Kombat.

Or MAT 1 and MAT 2 for $30 at BB, both with GGC. That's 40 games already.
Yeah, that SFII comment was good, and funny!
