I paid £250 for it from James
I've had 2 Darius Cabs, one of which I had shipped from Germany which cost me about £400 ish with Shipping, that was already converted to Ninja Warriors, the middle monitor was missing from the back.
I got another Darius without the pcb for £5 off ebay which had the middle monitor. The cab without the monitor at the back is ok, when you add that to it, it's a nightmare, only 30 inch deep without and with big box on the back it's like 40 inch roughly deep and you can't fit it in with other machines very well as it sticks out way past the others apart from full size Op Wolf
I tried to sell one of the cabs and no one was interested for £120, just needed pcb and 1 monitor fixing. I got a Darius pcb for the other and was converting it back to darius
The cabs are big, the draw at the bottom wouldn't pull out due to being stored in damp places and the front broke off. I kept getting other machines and the Darius pcb was starting to develope problems so I sold that and no one wanted the other cab either so they both got broken up, if it wasn't the lack of space problem all the time, I would still have them both.
Horible monitors in them, not remote pots to adjust so you can't setup the screens very easy.
It was the Darius cab with NW kit I played in my local arcade in the late 80's early 90's and that and Xybots were the last games I played in Leicester arcades, so great memories. so I wanted to get the same style cab I played, but the kit is rubbish and this other original made NW is far better designed, smaller and not as deep either so fits in well. There must of been more of them in Germany
It's deffo a Holy Grail for me. Op Wolf, OutRun, Ninja Warriors and Double Dragon are in my Top 5, What else would I choose, Maybe Indy Jones

And it IS a very good selection.
So the faulty cabinets are gone now, do I understand that correctly?
Fraid so
I did think about putting mame in one to play the other games, but more and more machines kept coming up that I wanted and just keep running out of space. The last machine was in the games room down the garden and I was struggling to move it from where it was, then it would of been hard work to get it out and back to the house, through there and out, so it went as well
Just wish I had endless amounts of space to have stored everything till people wanted them
