Title: Ebay.de - Zaccaria Frogger
Post by: jcp on November 09, 2009, 05:48:54 PM
A very nice cab (I saw that someone was looking for : may be Level42 or Superully ?) : here (http://cgi.ebay.de/Video-Spielautomat-Frogger-Acarde_W0QQitemZ260503684122QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutomaten?hash=item3ca73ac41a).

there was one zaccaria frogger posted on ebay quite a while ago, the seller wanted to have 600 euros for it - which of course nobody was willing to pay. i offered him 200 - he laughed  ;D. silence for a while, a few weeks later i asked again and offered him more, he said 400 would be the lowest low he would let it go for - but 400 is imho too much for the cab, although it's freakin' frogger. so i decided against it, backed by the fact that the seller's location was more than 500 kilometers away  :shock:

the one on offer here is the same style and seems to be in in almost the same condition, but it's way closer to my place :). still, 250 euros is a lot of money for a frogger cab, but i like the style much more than the woodgrain american version. what do you guys think of the price?

A bit expensive, but 200 is close to 250 ... and the cab is nearer from you ... it's worth the price for me ;).

I would go for it if I had the space. I LOVE that cab MUCH better than the US version IMHO. By the way, it's running 100%. That sure is worth a good deal of the price.


Or I would get this:

Somehow, there was a short-circuit in my mind, that made me think this was a vector game !!!

Surely I just checked Andreas' site (www.andysarcade.de , THE resource for all that is vector) and it's not listed indeed.....

Maybe it was the Asteroids kind of game play reference that made me think it was a vector game.

It looks pretty dull indeed. Kinda like the sounds....

i still don't know which version i like better. i totally love that tyre track thingy on the american version, but the woodgrain sides suck (although i would make them green and slap on sideart). the euro version has its own individual style, still torn between love and hate!

in a full arcade you don't see the sides so much, i have to say the american CP wins it for me, not sure i like the theme of the european one, its says frogs not frogger to me
