Pitchforks down: Capcom “Big Blue” styled multicab for sale
I know this is not original, but hear me out. I created this for someone out there who wants a multi but doesn’t have the skills to make one. I know there are some members out there with a friend that wants them to make them a cab, but you don’t want to sacrifice an original dedicated. Allow me to relieve your stress.
Hopefully this keeps someone from buying a “Arcade 1-UP”
This is originally an Atari family Pit Fighter 3-player. I picked this one up at an estate sale and tried to offer it in the community to someone who wanted to restore it or convert it to a 3 player rampart. I didn’t have any interest, so I decided to convert it into someone that would appeal to a wider audience.
So I did a full refurbishment and converted this into a “Big Blue” style Street Fighter 2 Champion edition cab.
First, the cab was completely torn down and given a complete cleaning.
The exterior was fully stripped down, sanded, repaired and refinished with quality color matched paint. New T-molding and a completely new Art kit. I left the rear orginal in the case that someone might want to convert this back to a Atari Cab.
I custom built a new Bezel to fit the art dimensions and had to “manual photoshop” the pieces together so that the graphics were generally preserved to the size.
I scratch built a new control panel. Router copied from the original and also created a new plexi and custom art.
The monitor has a little bit of burn, but it’s not noticeable during use. Otherwise as the picture is really nice, I left that alone.
I had to scratch build new harnesses for the control panel. These are wired for (c)Jamma with 6 buttons on the Jamma harness.
This is powered by a Pandoras Box 5s, with 999 games loaded and ready to go. No PC to mess with.
I probably have at least 40 hours of work in this cab. I’m pleased with how it turned out. Let me know if you have questions. I’m asking $1200 in general, but will give a discount for members. Please no hating, I really meant this for someone who wants a turn key arcade and have really put some work into this.
I’m putting it here first in case there is interest.
PM me, or hit me up on KLOV.
