Wow, they're some minty looking cabinets! Particularly that Aero and Neo 25 on the way. Have you played around with an Aero before? They're amazingly heavy things, built like absolute tanks.

2 NACs, 2 Blasts, an Aero and a neo25 is not a 'small collection', it's a bloody arcade! sounds like an amazing setup, would love to see some photos :)

As someone with no attachment to either of you so I can't really pick 'sides', I don't know why either of you went through with three transactions with each other when you literally had two failed transactions before that? Transaction 1 - seller and buyer both unhappy, transaction collapses...

Honestly after moving candy cabinets up and down many flights of stairs (I used to live on the 4th storey of an apartment complex with no lift for my sins!) you just cant beat a bit of manpower along with a dolly. Three in total is great. We used a dolly like that costco one, strapped the...

It's also one of those things that makes all of this even more upsetting to read as it took advantage of the honesty a community like this is built on :(

Does the US not have a yearly capital gains tax credit to mitigate this for most people? In Ireland, each tax year, the first €1,270 of your gain (after deducting losses) is exempt from CGT. It's only a small mercy really for us though because absolutely everything over that is taxed at a flat...

This is fascinating reading. I've had my Raiden 2 board with the original battery on it for 10-15 years now and it's never saved a score at all. Following this with great interest! :)

Yeah I've say you've troubleshooted it down to not being the PSU alright. Out of the broken CPS1 games I had, I'd a SF2: CE also with a very similar graphical problem to you and it was 100% the A board. So I'd say that should sort you out. A board failure is definitely a bit of a problem...

Any CPS1 faults I've had pop up on boards tended to be down to the A board. I've had a few I've bought over the years that I thought were broken, changed out the A board and they worked fine. I'd definitely wait and try the B & C boards out on a verified working A board before doing any more...

Is that Raiden Fighters single board one with the good sound? Will take it if so :)

I'll take a Pony one if you don't mind shipping to Ireland?

A man of refined taste I see :D

Looks to be the exact same spec of the one I stuck in my AVP board a few years back, zero modification at all, just plug in the new fan and slot it in where the old fan went.

Oh man, it such a simple design, even simple parts, but so so nice to look at.

FrancoB did a couple of great Dinoking conversions years back and if I remember correctly one of them had a vertical monitor setup. Ah yes here, we go! http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=133250.0

I will say though, you'll pay a pretty penny for a Pony 18. I'd imagine at least the same price as a cute. I've seen a lot more cutes for sale over the years than those. I'd absolutely kill for a Sega City myself but they're even rarer than the both of them!

7 or 8 years ago a lot of folks were converting Sega Dinokings into mini jamma cabinets. A lot of really amazing conversions done. Great thread from this very forum: https://www.arcade-projects.com/threads/sega-dinosaur-king-cab-conversion.4485/

Honestly I think the best thing to do is to liken your MiSTercade to an actual arcade PCB. That's how I view mine anyway. So if you want to play a vertical game properly on your CRT cabinet you'll need to rotate your monitor, like with a real PCB. Best solution? Two cabinets! :)
