Tournament Arkanoid Bezel

[animesuperj]

I've searched for this for a bit, but still am unsure; did Tournament Arkanoid have a bezel and sideart or not? My cabinet doesn't have anything for the bezel, but has romstart graphics on both sides of the cab. If it did have a bezel, does anyone know where I could pick one up or get a picture (so I can reproduce it)?

Also, just out of curiosity, what other games could I put into an arkanoid cabinet and use the same controlles (spinner and a fire button)? I was going to try to get the first Arkanoid board, possibly the second. I really like Tourament, so wouldn't mind having something a little easier at times. I'd like to stick another game into it if I could find something that uses the same setup, but can't think of anything else offhand.

Thanks for any info anyone has!

I think it just used what the original Arkanoid had, the capsule descriptions.

As far as I know (and I may be completely wrong here) Arkanoid was never released as a dedicated cab, it was only a conversion kit. It came with generic Romstar sideart stickers, and the capsule info that you would stick onto either the outside of your monitor glass or on the monitor bezel, depending on what cabinet you converted.
As far as what else used the spinner knob and fire button, not much else I can think of offhand which is why it was usually converted to something else over time. Arkanoid and Tournament, I am not really sure what the difference is, but I am almost positive that Arkanoid II is a JAMMA board, and the original is not, so you're basically stuck with Arkanoid, unless you were to build an adapter for JAMMA to Arkanoid harness. That's about all the info I've got for you, maybe someone else could fill in any blank spots?

Thanks for the info! Like I said, I wasn't sure if it had one or not, or what originally came with it. My plan was to just keep it as a Tournament Arkanoid and then get another machine (or 2, or more if I have room) to either run mame or a jamma cab and switch the boards.

I think Tournament Arkanoid was a little harder than just Arkanoid. Not 100% sure, though. Again, thanks for the help.
