Ninja Warriors. There's a few versions, but I like the upright the best.
It's a technical marvel of mirrors and stuff and great to look at the demo and the audio, but the game's seems barely finished.
You could also run Darius on it.

Agreed, that game is like running through treacle. Darius or Warrior Blade would be a far better use of that cab
That’s the best games to get ,the ones your crap at .i played mine loads when i had it for that very reason 😊

Sega swing. Think it looks so cool. Still modern looking in my opinion

I appreciate this isn’t a popular opinion on this particular forum, but I’m not a massive fan of dedicated cabs.
I love the look of the MVS U4 with the chrome/steel CP surround, and I’d love to have an SNK Candy 25 (the variant with the blue and pink branding and chrome CP surround) to pair with it.
I’m hoping to get some serious dirt on @o1s1n , so I can blackmail him out of his!!
If it was going to be a dedicated ‘classic’ cab, it’d be pretty cool to have a minty Donkey Kong in the living room or hallway as a piece of furniture…

2 cool looking machines for sure, I remember when there was a Time Traveler cab on ebay years ago, if only space was unlimited
Did you see that one on ebay 1/2 size some guy made, looks okay at distance, would love to see how good it compares to original for holographic effect
With Computer Space, how many that are owned actually get played? probably not many
I am shocking at most but when it comes to 720 I cant even get into a skate park half the time, deffo more Die or Die! for meThat's what I'm like with half the games
But the cab design with the Ghetto blaster and unnecessarily complicated joystick along with the Sys II bell chime when you put a coin in... little things.
I agree you buy machines to play in most cases, I haven't bought anything I didn't want to even if crap at them but Tron I would happily own just to have it switched on with others because it looks super cool, even if the owner doesn't play it, it could still get played by friends as they might like it so doesn't have to sit there never used
I used to play it on C64 and don't think I even seen arcade one but I had that tape with music on and used to enjoy listening to it, Ghetto Blaster top looks great, speakers are 8" as well, I'll probably suck at it when I do play it properly but it didn't last long before it wasn't working, got boards working again then monitor started to blank out, I was in middle of swapping it with another 25" I got local really cheap until filling my space with more stuff but i'll get it sorted soon
I was all over Gauntlet same time as 720 was around so I never went near it back in the day, I swapped out my CRT for a burn free 25" med res replacement which are thankfully more available than 19".
Still have the original WG in the shed though.
