I haven’t made many gaming related purchases in awhile, but I’ve been looking around for a relatively cheap vga monitor to hook up my Xbox 360 and play some random MAME and PC games. I got this 32” Dell for $149 and a fully articulating clamp desk mount for $25 that’s seems pretty good. Also grabbed a PC copy of Outrun 2006 Coast 2 Coast.

There's a fan patch for the PC Outrun out there that makes it run better on modern PCs. It looks awesome at 1080p widescreen, although the 2D elements look understandably weird.

What clamp desk mount did you get? I like the looks of that. Did you get it from Amazon or somewhere like that?

Not much you can do about the burn in, but the speaker grill is an easy fix. Its a metal mesh. Just pull it out and gently tap out the dent from the back side. I've pulled apart two Blasts for a deep clean. I recommend drenching it in simple green and use a scrub brush and hot, soapy water. The tobacco tar that will come off will amaze and disgust you at the same time. Once clean and back together, you will be happy with your purchase.

The monitor has alot of burn in and as petty as it is the dam speaker grill is is bent and it's bothering the hell out of me. Not sure I can straight it upView attachment 53867

Yeah I'm in the process of cleaning it up. Japan arcades must have been gnarly with all the shit caked on.

Shock Troopers 2 I got a while ago(I have doubles, this one is still for sale), Kizuna Encounter and Blazing Star are new additions. Twinkle Star Sprites kit is en-route, will snap a pic when it arrives. All matching and complete!

Now I just need to find Pulstar(sigh, will be difficult), Shock Troopers, Windjammers, Metal Slug 1, 2, 3, and X, and a few fighters and older titles and I'll be content with my MVS collection. Not going for a full set, just stuff I love.
