Play Choice 10 how much are they worth?

[BTHOTU]

Ok, so I would like to get one and there is one near me.... it looks like it is pretty nice and is the double screen one with a top monitor.

First whats a good deal.... I am considering selling my Cheetahmen for a good portion of the funds.

second, how easy is it to change and add games? also is it easy to convert nes games to it... I saw this was possible.

thanks

Oh how much are extra games usually... I really want the Ninja Gaidens, and 1942

"Good deal" is always relative. I've passed on several at $150 even though it's a good price, I'm just not a PC10 fan. As a rule, expect to pay $300 or so for any working machine in decent shape. Some folks here have paid up to $600 for their PC10 machines, still a good deal to them because they really wanted the machine and were willing to pay the asking price.

Cake. :)

Yes the games are very easy to change, not as easy as MVS but not rocket science. I paid $350 for mine, the avatar is it.

Games are $20-$70. A gun is $40. Least that is what I have seen on ebay.

This (http://www.playchoice.riemen.net/) is a site I found for the NES conversions.

Ok thanks for the info guys, I am really considering picking one up... is the Double screen version worth more???

Thanks again!!!

IMO the double screen is only worth more for the extra monitor. Otherwise it is all about preference (holy grails to some, a glorified NES in a wooden cabinet to others). I like my top/bottom screen PC10 just because it seems so...I dunno...quirky. Something about having that menu system above the game along with the descriptions that is kind of cool.

Also. Word of caution. Although it is common knowledge that arcade machines are top heavy, this version of the PC10 is doubly so (because of the second monitor...duh ;P). I dislocated my thumb and was almost crushed when I first moved mine. I also almost dumped it onto the side of the road when I took an off ramp a little too fast.

I almost dropped mine onto the ground, thank god it hit the back of the truck instead of the ground though. Me and the other people moving it underestimated its weight lol
