Just picked up a Marvel vs Capcom arcade cab for 220 bucks. Completely referbed. New wiring and monitor.

Get this- it comes with a custom built jamma harness that plugs into your dreamcast.

So i guess i just bought a dreamcast arcade cab that can also run CPS2 boards?

It is my first cab and i'm really excited.

I was eyeing that too. Definitely a steal, but didn't want to bid on it because I don't have space. Glad to see it went to someone on Racketboy though.
ha. I was wondering if any racketers were eyeing it.

y'know what? I don't even know! Haha. i'll have to compare it to my frontlit red SP.

EDIT: It looks frontlit to me. So no, not the brighter backlit.

Went into FYE today to find all of their new DS games marked down to absurdly low prices. Elite Beat Agents, Children of Mana, and Advance Wars Days of Ruin to name a few. I picked up Advance Wars for $8 brand new.

I was wondering the same thing when I saw the ad on Craigslist. I dunno how you found it, but the seller had a CL ad that linked to his ebay auction. I'm pretty sure that if you made a Venn Diagram, the circle that represents "Racketeers" and the circle that represents "people who want to own an arcade cab" are almost the same circle...

I didn't see the ad. I have an e-bay alert set up for new listings labeled 'neo geo' and 'capcom' within the arcade section.

That is a pretty neat design. Does it have a different look when closed?
