4 MVS Game Cartridges: Puzzle Bobble, Metal slug 2, Samurai Showdown 4, Fatal Fury

The guy is wanting $1,300 for it.

I haven't heard back yet if the marquee and speakers are in good working order. He says the monitor and CP is working perfectly and implies that the coin mechanisms work.

It seems a little pricey, but I have no idea what this cabinet and games is going for currently.

Seems about right if you're into it. Personally I can't go back to playing on stuff like this despite my nostalgia for it, just not great ergonomically if you're actually playing seriously.

E: Though this is a perspective from someone with limited space. If you have plenty of room and it won't take up space better used for something else, it's an awesome piece to have.

We're converting our basement into a game room / bar. I'm planning to get an Astro City for my nook of it and wanted something for the bar portion. This seems just about perfect. Though finding other games for it will likely be a chore.

Price seems ok considering some games are included. I sold mine for $1100 about a year ago with no games.

MVS carts are not hard to find. The Darksoft multi is always an option.

I wouldn't want a multicart in a unit like this. The load times would mess up the game switching. There are inexpensive knock off carts these days or flashable ones right? That would be a nice setup.

Monitor bezel is missing?

 

[Lallander]

Looks like it. Doesn't look like the marquee lights up either from the pictures.

 

[nam9]

I think that is a fairly common issue. There are EL panel replacement options.

 

[Lallander]

I assume replacement bezels are fairly easy to find as well.

Bezel you could easily cut from cardboard yourself.

Though finding other games for it will likely be a chore.

MVS carts are some of the most abundant arcade games available.

 

[nam9]

That I would be less sure of…

i have seen more than 3 big reds sell for 1200 or in that area. puzzle bobble is 35, ms2 is 70, fatal fury is around 40, and im not sure of a price on samsho 4. its safe to say theres around 200 dollars in carts. with the exception of the bezel, it looks to be in pretty good condition and is complete. its in the 1k-1200 dollar range for sure. i hope u can find a nice bezel for that monitor.
