Title: Zaccaria Super Cobra
Post by: SeTTleR on November 23, 2011, 06:42:46 PM
Hi fellows,
in the german arcadeinfo board is a guy that says he has a Zaccaria Super Cobra with a broken monitor. He wants to part it out and MAME it (!!!). He therefore sells the whole stuff from within including the PCB. He is asking for 20 Euros!

He says the game is working, he hears sound but the screen is black!

Not a member of that forum so I can't access it - can you repost the pictures etc here?
Can someone in Germany pop over and visit him to slap him upside the head? >:(
Thanks,
Paul.

Hi,
unfortunately there are no pictures. If anybody is interested, I can do the communication for sure. Maybe someone can trade with a Universal Cab or stuff.. I mean: he wants to MAME the thing and take it completely apart! PCB for 20 Euros plus all the rest from the inside if you pay the delivery...

I don't know. He doesn't write anything about it. Not even sure if he wants to sell the whole cab. He only says, it's broken, so he will MAME it, but PCB is working and he wants to sell the PCB and the other stuff from the inside of the cab.. that can surely be sent by Mail.

Lol, nice rescue team! ;D
If it is a full upright Super Cobra, it is quite rare these days, not too much left, Vanguard, Phoenix and Scramble are much more common.

get`s difficult. Guy says that he
-likes the artwork
- has spent 100€ for the cab
- marquee is in bad condition
- he vamped the electronics inside

In summary he want to keep it and mame it. He don't want to trade with a hellomat. Any ideas?

puh, after dozen of mails he`s willing to trade. Hellomat plus some parts/ money. Or other Cab and some money from him. He is going to make some pics and will send them next week. Hope the cab it`s worth it.

So I can announce it`s rescued :)

What a pity. After one week this guy decides to keep the cab and make a MAME Cab out of it. This is sad.

I don't get why people do something like that! They spurn videogames by destroying a part of videogaming history and want to own a videogame cab nonetheless. They simply don't care about culture, history and stuff. This is so sad and stupid, I can't believe somebody is doing that.
He should have recognized that people care about these things and they want to save this cab. What's against a TV Ideal or something? You need less effort to Mame that thing and nobody cares about those.. I simply don't get it. This makes me sad and angry

I agree for a part, i can understand you if its a real rare cab, but in this case its just a 1 in a million zacc

no just kidding, it just justifies my future plan  ;) ;D)
