I saw this at a garage sale today on my quest to get an arcade machine. They are asking 250, but I could probably talk them down to 200.

The game seems really hard and I didn't get too much time with it, but it didn't jump out at me as being something that I could really get into.

Even so, the cab was in superb condition and the graphics on the cab itself were quite attractive. Should I get it just cuz, maybe turn it around to someone else later? Seems like a decent deal, but I'm on the fence.

They also had a Gauntlet II in great condition, but they wanted $1,300. Yeesh....

Although KLOV lists it as a common game, I personally have not seen one in the wild since the 80s. Fun game to boot.

Dang, if that were in my neck of the woods, I'd have grabbed it. I've only played that one at classic game conventions on MAME cabs, and it's pretty fun, like Defender and Radarscope had a mutated baby.

Gauntlet II for $1,300? Yikes! Are you sure the price tag didn't blow off a used car or something in the wind? I can see that in the late '80s in an actual arcade sale, but not in this day and age.
