She said she was just going to toss it all out, but I convinced her that there was value in it. So, she gave it to me and said "Do whatever you want. If you can sell them, you can keep the money,"

He is in Japan now and was busy with this deal a couple days ago.

Good to know it's coming this way :)

Post by: zxthehedgehog on July 03, 2014, 03:08:37 PM: The cabs themselves, yes, are just generic JAMMA themselves and look fairly bland. But, there are some good games in there, such as Metal Slug X, TETRIS, Street Fighter Zero 2 (A.K.A. Street Fighter Alpha 2), and Puzzle Fighter X.
