Ok, another free cabinet up for grabs. This is one of those 2 monitor pyramid-shaped .VS system cabinets.

Upper condition: Some dings and dents. Should be easy to bump out/repaint.
Lower condition: Lower support legs have some rust.
Hardware: Has joysticks, most buttons, and coin acceptors. At least 1 coin acceptor may be bad. Has power circuitry, wiring harness, service switch, etc.

What's missing: Monitors, boards, a few buttons

Magical abilities: Every time I open it up, I find a quarter. I can't guarantee this will continue to happen once it leaves my ownership.

Price: EXTRA FREE!!!!
Yes, it's true. This cabinet is even more free than the Tempest cabinet. Don't miss this opportunity!

PM with any questions, details. I can take photos.

I have the 1 board that it comes with, but I plan on butchering it as part of an evil experiment to add RGB to a pedestrian NES. MuhuahahHAHAHA!!!!

When you say 'boards', it makes me think that you're thinking of the PC10 boards. This has 1 board with 2 sets of game ROMs, RGB outputs, and whatnot.

Someone better take this cab, because you don't want to know what's going to happen to it if nobody takes it :eek 2: :eek 2: :eek 2: :evil:

Yeah, I mean the board with the games on it. If you just want it for the RGB stuff, why not just send me the chips from the games?

The RGB thing is a long term project, but if/when it comes to fruition, I'll keep ya in mind. It seems to have Pinball & SMB, but the SMB side is unmarked (a faded mini-marquee is in the machine for SMB)

Cool. If you are ever looking to get rid of it, please drop me a line!

I'd love ot have it, but I'd have no way to get it to Grand Rapids. :(

Is it still available? If so I (or my "agent") might be able to swing by and get it in the next few days.

Looks like it's going to live with Spoon, but if that doesn't work out, you (or your "agent") are 2nd in line.

Yay! Soon to be free of an $82/month storage unit!

Chad whispers to the vase, "I think Achika is an agent."

LOL My dad is my "agent" he's the one with the van while I'm at school, and I don't think it could fit in my car, thusly, I'd send him from another city.

Chad whispers into a picture frame, "Achika has confirmed that she does indeed have backup. She will be calling in outside agents when it goes down."

Say, FAB, are the instruction cards still in that unit? And, if so, what game(s) are they for?

Pinball and Super Mario Bros.

In the unlikely event that Spoon or Achika (or Special Agent Dad) don't pick it up, then I'll part it out and you can have the card/marquees thingys.

Cool. When you said "cabinet", I though you meant it was the kind that looks like it's 2 cabinets side-by-side. That's the same kind, I have, and would love those instruction cards (Well, the board too, but that's another story). Oh, BTW, the Saturn stuff came today ;)
