I was waiting for After Burner, personally. I do realize NFL Blitz was like number 2 behind Daytona USA. But, whatever.

@roker: MSHVSF>MVC1>XMVSF>XMCOTA>>>>>>>MVC2.

Yep, Afterburner is my most wanted at this point. And potentially Smash TV.

I passed on NBA Jam and will pass on NFL Blitz

Yeah, definitely prepare to rub beards with some fools trying to play 4P on that.

Looks like it was MvC2 after all. Here’s the game list:

X-Men Children of the Atom
Marvel Super Heroes
X-Men vs Street Fighter
Marvel vs Street Fighter
Marvel vs Capcom
Marvel vs Capcom 2

And 2 stupid console games
War of Gems
Mutant Apocalypse

I guess they go no longer include The Punisher? Wtf.

This kind of piss me off. The other pcbs are pretty much obsolete. I have 2 xmen vs sf and 2 marvel vs capcom pcb.

I want the pcb dont really want the mvc2 cab. Want to put it in the big blue

Yeah, had they included the Punisher on the Marvel vs Capcom, it would have seriously invalidated that Marvel Super Heroes/Punisher release. I was lucky enough to get that (MVC1) at Best Buy before they stopped making it.

As I said before, MVC2 sucks so, won't be bothering with this new cab.

Yeah I feel the same way. I have 2 marvel vs capcom pcbs (I thought one was broken but turns out it was fine) that I put in my MSH cab as well as the original MSH pcb.

They should have made MvC2 a 12 or 14 game lineup and included some games not on the original releases so at least people might not feel so bad about double dipping.

Having said all that....anyone want to buy a MvC pcb? :)

I mean not for nothing I’m pretty impressed with people’s setups. It’s not much but for a small home arcade that cost a small fortune (instead of a big fortune) this kind of setup is ace.

Truthfully these things have come a long way since the wave 1 release and everyone whose come into my home has a lot of fun playing on them....kids and adults.

I get why folks here crap on them, but for what they are they are a lot of fun. I have no regrets on any of the ones I bought.

At $230? Nope. At $130, I’d say that’s a fair price.
Yeah no way I would have bought it at $230 or even $200.
If nothing else it looks pretty easy to install Batocera on these so that's an option as well.
I mostly bought it because I always was always sad about selling my big red and Pony IV cabs. I just didn't have room for them when I moved. I know this won't be the same but hopefully I'll find some fun with it.

Looks like Mortal Kombat is also $130.

I don’t like MK enough to buy a big 3/4 scale one, but I may scoop that small one at $130

Killer Instinct is on sale for $499 Best Buy. Also rcwiley has it for $399. Some are able to price match it. Still to pricey. I might pick it up for $249.

The only cab i want is the Time crisis/ Point bank cab.

Yearn i thought about Killer Instinct but I just don’t have a ton of nostalgia for that game. I also don’t think my kids would have fun with that cab (too hard).

Don’t think I’ll get Time Crisis/Point Blank, but I think that will have a larger screen. Now if they do Virtua Cop or House of the Dead....that’s a different story. :p

I have T2 and they are sinden guns. I assume it would be the same.

Work great, but feel very light and cheap...no heft to them at all.
