exA will even support second-hand hardware for free unless the security stickers have been tampered with. Send a mail to support, they will give you instructions on how to send the system back for repair. You will have to pay shipping back and forth.

When buying individual items from the official Seimitsu store here in Japan, some levers are packaged in cardboard but most just come in a plastic bag. What you see on their website is exactly what you get: https://seimitsuin.thebase.in/

Are you planning on ever rotating the monitor? If yes, avoid recent Chewlixes at all costs: everything is welded in place and the cabinet orientation cannot be changed.

Hi there! Man, it's thanks to your videos that I took the plunge and bought my two Diamond Blacks. Cheers and welcome!

If you're in Japan, Seimitsu themselves got your back: https://seimitsuin.thebase.in/items/73551574 Granted, it's not a S-bracket, but it will fit any Seimitsu lever.

I have one black subpanel I’m not using, provided you’re OK with also paying shipment from Japan. Can sell it as a set with buttons, screws, a volume potentiometer and the precious grommet. Just DM me if you’re interested.

Hi there! Turns out that PayPal Friends&Family is not available in Japan anymore. Add in the fees, postage to Japan and the currently-terrible exchange rates, and the total is a tiny bit above what I can reasonably afford right now. Considering the interest other members have expressed in the...

May be interested in two, but only if you sell me two LED strips to go with them too. :D

Received my order yesterday and couldn't be happier! Thanks! Just the right size, nice and sturdy. Now to buy more games! :D

Aka&Blue Type-R on exA comes to mind. The game can be played just fine in 4:3, but the UI feels less cramped in full 16:9. And yes, rotating a Vewlix is a major PITA. It is a 30-minute job indeed, but not something you'll want to do on a whim. Looking into buying a second one just for that reason.

What all the people recommending the All.net P.RAS Multi 3 cabinet over a Vewlix did not mention is that the former's monitor cannot be rotated. P.RAS cabinets are stuck in yoko forever, whereas a Vewlix can be set up to play games in tate (although not the very latest Chewlixes, be careful). If...

The people who like to shit on Shou are prompt to forget that he did more for the arcade scene than they have and ever will. Was it a dick move? Arguably. Is exA in the right? Absolutely, they bought the IP from Cave. Does it matter? Absolutely not! The ROM is “preserved” and is still playable...

Probably a Frenchism. To “research” and to “look for” are both the same word in French. ;)

Actually, please upgrade me from 5 to 8; with P-47 Aces mk2 and Akai Katana on the horizon, might as well have a few spares.

I’d buy 5.
