Street fighter 5 cab

[monkeychunkuk]

Importeed Hong Kong to a pizza place in London and now in my place.

Picked up from a chap on Facebook he has two more.

Typical arcade pick up had to drill the locks as they lost the key only to find it had a few mouse droppings and he had chewed the manual.

Spent the day cleaning it and replacing buttons and fixing some cosmetics

£200 think I got a good deal

 

[Hurray Banana]

Bargain

Both in the same state broken buttons and need of the a good clean

The monitor is a LG

 

[monkeychunkuk]

Any idea What price would it normally go for ?

No idea but far more than £200 one would think.

if anyone picks up either of the other 2 I have both manuals in my machine

Made some cosmetic improvements to the build. The lower yellow section had rust and flaking, so I stripped it back to bare metal and gave it a fresh coat of spray paint. I also widened the LED housing holes to allow for brighter illumination.

The insert area for the can or ashtray was in pretty rough shape, so I removed it, cleaned up the surface, and resprayed it as well.

While inspecting the speaker grill, I noticed it was just a hollow panel—no speakers. So I installed a couple I had lying around and hooked them up to a mini amp.

I considered adding a light behind the artwork, but figured it might be too distracting in low light, so I skipped it for now.

It’s still running off a laptop for the moment, but I’m hoping to build a dedicated PC soon to run some of the more popular fighting games

this looks great and would be perfect, but i feel like there may be more than meets the eye to this, if a price looks too good to be true kinda thing

Yer I thought about that before I picked it up.

I knew the buttons were dameged and had no idea what was inside. So in my head I was just picking up a empty cab it’s not something I can make with wood.

The fact the monitor works ( it’s a LG ) the speakers and lights work and the glass for the screen is in good condition and the two bezzels where in fair condition all just bonuses to me.

What manuals do you have? A Tekken 7? I need one of those.

Great pick up !
Main thing is you will put a bit of work in to it setting it up (which will be fun ) and then enjoy playing and owning it.

Cracking find that 🙌 Tiny bit of tlc and it'll run for life that, good work 👍

Hugely impressed that you found someone on Facebook marketplace that actually sold something, even if I get a response, 7/10 it falls through.

That manual is for a bootleg yellow PC motherboard.

I have an original manual somewhere.

These cabinets are from China and can be found on Alibaba , they retail new for about £600 new shipped to the UK.

Still the one found in the UK already is quite a good deal as not having to deal with the importing. You often find China makes some some cool mini size cabinets also, group order anybody?

 

[Bods]

Nice one, Don't look bad that and for £200 it's a great price. Sort of thing I need to have for Teknoparrot to play some of the later games in but need to sort out space before buy anything

 

[Stokers]

Looking good, they really went all in on the design of these cabs.

Thank you for the info that tie in with what he said they was imported from China I think he said he paid 1200 for the 3.

Considering most things of that site are dodgy the construction and wiring are very good.

Little update, I was lucky twice !
The original PS4 sold on eBay for £95
I probably could of got more for it but I’m happy with something,

Then whilst I managed to find someone who upgraded there PC selling there mint old one. It’s so over kill but it means I can run all the pc games I want

Just got to setup a front end, anyone use launch box ?
