Its easy. Sell your house. Make close to 6 figures. Spoil yourself

[Da BattleMasta Patrick]

you a lame, Pat the realest in the game, ya girl vega, clawing for attention
So she let Pat fly in head first, then hit 100 times, on that E Honda stretching

[Useless]

Marvel vs capcom woulda been the right choice.


Still tho

[anime_boners]

don't most arcade stores sell just the boards?

they actually sold you the board in the cab?? or did you already have a cab? also if you don't mind me asking what did it run you and do you know what style sticks/buttons are in the cab??



edit: I'm sorry but if you dropped 2200 on cab + board you mighta got ripped off. I think the boards usually sell from like 150-250 for CE and a cab shouldn't be costing you over 2K.. especially if it's not like an H2H cab or a candy cab style

tho, I guess you paid for the convenience of it coming all put together for you.

QFT

i could see this for a 4-player, but not for a standard cabinet. plus, if original board/components, it will be a money pit (as previously stated). better off building a sweet mame rig.

rep.

[Da BattleMasta Patrick]

Pat gets all the rep, my bars wear your girl's fur coat,
how diode talm bout money pits after his dumb ass bought a boat.

[anime_boners]

werd

my boy copped an ASTRO CITY sitdown style cabinet.. they two player joint, not the h2h

forget what he paid, but def under 2 racks. pretty sure it's seimetsu sticks/buttons too. he got an HnK board, and iirc either Street Fighter Alpha 2 or 3? shit's dope though. he was gonna get a 3rd Strike board but that joint was like 800 smh.

last I was over though he hadn't got it fully set up yet but that was a minute ago

in the event that your sticks / buttons start to go this a good spot for parts.

I use them when I need to swap out parts on my arcade controllers for my consoles.

Good looking..

Btw it came with new happ joysticks & buttons plus a new lcd monitor instead of crt monitor. Yeah i could of paid 1500 or so for an "as is" street fighter but i decided to go to a reputable dealer and purchase a fully restored machine with warranty

[Razah]

sick.

[Ghost1]

I can see why reed would have knowledge on this subject

But jesus diode lmfao

Is it necessary to know everything?

no, you dickless wonder, i (much like 1/4 of this board) was a kid in the 80s/90s and have a lot of nostalgia for arcades. that led to researching the costs of ownership several times.

Watch your tone with me, Boy. What I said is still true. Your ego made you post that response.

you are a frail, fat internet phd. you drive a dodge stratus. don't sass me.

lcd monitor is going upscale the shit out of the game though and create hella input lag. older games are better off on CRT tbh

i figured it would be HAPP parts. probs what you're used to rocking with anyway so that's cool. personally once I started playing on sanwa I couldn't go back.

could be one of those crazy high 240hz gaming jobbers

though that would skyrocket the price..

You are a boy. You are mentally and emotionally a child. An adolescent at best.

And what is wrong with a Dodge Stratus? See that is the difference. You think I care about that kind of stuff. I don't need other men's praise, you do. Your ego manifests your deep-laden insecurity and inferiority. I know that you are a fraud. You lash out at me in anger because you are scared to death that you will be found out.

boy.

And your wrong. I let the shower wipe me.

Can we just skip to the part where your butt hurts and so you ban me boy?

[Diode]

you are a shit lord.

thank you for confirming.

[veritas]

Are you pro choice or pro life?

[anime_boners]

V pls remove your negative nancy bull shit from the one good thread in disc rn

[anime_boners]

on topic: OP did you buy SF2CE because you prefer CE to other versions, or because that's the only SF2 they had? would you consider Super Turbo or any other boards?

also iirc CE runs on CPS1, so you could swap the board out for games like Captain Commando, Ghouls and Ghosts, and some other pretty dope Capcom games from back in the day.

Sadly if you wanted like 3rd Strike or the SF Alpha series you need a CPS3 machine, and Naomi for MvC2/CvS2

still a dope investment

They have every version of street fighter tho i didnt see the original version (sf1). Although they said if i wanted sf1 they could get it for me but i was like nah, thats ok. That place was like a candy store for men. They had tecmo bowl, nba jam, tmnt, neo geo, 10 yard fight (lol). Ghouls n ghosts was dope and kung-fu was one of my favorites

[NYCSPITZ]

aye jilti, fuck you for beating me in that short verse tournament. I can't lie...I just came in here a few days ago lurkin and was honestly persuaded by this threead to buy one or two of these arcade games for my mancave in addition to a pool table etc. I think marvel vs capcom will suffice, but should it be version 1 or 2??? Also do u know if in version 2 marvel vs capcom u can turn Ryu into akuma by performing the reverse circle and hard punch phenomenon? Gonna prob get marvel vs capcom and a shooting game, and a bunch of shit from thisiswhyimbroke.com. Although I have no idea how I'd get a shooting arcade game in through the front door, would have to prob get a team to assemble the shit inside. NC has too much influence over me.

[Mike Wrecka]

Thanks. Bought it $2200 cash, fully restored


Stopped reading here. Good god ur a complete moron. 600 max on that cabinet

[Mike Wrecka]

Actually I take it back jilti ur awesome.

Want to buy a N64 off me? Only 300 bucks

Defeating one of the best topicalists was a nice feather in my cap

But V2 probably, and i dont know how to turn ryu into akuma. My next machine will probably be a pinball game and/or arcade sized air hockey table

[jilti]

You can get an arcade game for around $1000 but its a bit of a risk because it'll come from a private dealer aka regular joe
