I found a BIg Red cabinet in my area for $400. Although I already have a custom built Neo Geo cabinet, I've been itching for quite some time to get a SF2 CE motherboard, and maybe some other favorites from my youth like MK2 and Double Dragon.
The fighters require me to redisign the console for 6 buttons, and the MVS harness would at the very least need an adapter. This big red seems like the perfect solution to convert my custom cabinet for full JAMMA play.
I've attached pictures. The two slot would be replaced with my 6.
As far as the condition, I'd say it's fair. But with the market here, I never see cabinets for sale. This is the first one I have even seen that hasn't been basterdized or painted black.
The left panel has a small chunk missing near the top, and four screw holes drilled into it near the center.
My real concern is the monitor. No burn in or color issues, but the outer areas, near the corners, are blurry. The center looks great, but the score at the bottom, and graphics at the top corners aren't in focus.
I'm going to go buy it tomorrow, barring some input here to dissuade me. If you know what is causing the blur, and whether or not I can correct it, please let me know. Thank you.
