My dream arcade cabinet would easily be a 6 players X-Men machine.
It is amazing!

*DROOLS*
Ah, the hours I spent playing that monster cabinet. I usually avoided playing as Dazzler or Cyclops because their viewing angles sucked ;)

I’d stab someone for one of those in good shape. I love it.

Oh, for me it would have to be one of the SNK arcade cabinets, perhaps Samurai Shodown II. That would be fantastic.

I'm pretty sure there are very few arcade cabinets that even go for more than 10K so even if you have a high dollar one it most definitely is not worth stabbing for.

Prison bail etc will cost you far more than the few K's an original machine costs It's not that much really.

The 4 player one is for sale for 3K in the states

Also there is a 6 player cabinet for sale if anyone is interested since it is apparently to die for ::)

I highly doubt the 6 player one will be far more expensive than a 4 player one not 10K + but who knows.

We had that 6-player cabinet at the arcade I worked at. The section with the buttons and joysticks detached from the rest of the cabinet and was basically a really big and hollow pressed wood box. Every so often we'd haze a new guy and lock them inside that part of the cab.  :P

I always preferred using Dazzler, viewing angle be damned. Every time I saw someone play it was almost always Colossus, Nightcrawler or Wolverine.  :P

My first job was at an arcade, though they no longer had X-Men when I started working there.

I’d use Dazzler occasionally, but I never liked how difficult it was to do her throw move. It was so inconsistent. IMO, the best character is Storm. She has the best range and I can do her throw easily.

This dream can be made possible in anyone of our lives, for anyone one of us with an income. But me personally would never want to steal any of them.

I believe in consequences for doing bad things no matter what. If you steal chances are higher you may get robbed yourself by another person (or worse)  in the future that is how I look at it.

that is what I mean partially  when I consider that stealing does have consequences. even if you don't experience any right away

But I figure that not that many people on here are interested in stealing.

I had a friend who had one in his garage.  That was a great July 4th party.

He ended up moving and sold it to another friend.  Last I heard was that it need work done on one of the monitors.

I’d stab someone for one of those in good shape. I love it.

No Beast, sadly.

There was Nightcrawler (personal favorite), Wolverine, Cyclops, Colossus, Storm and Dazzler.

That's still a pretty respectable lineup.

Have you never played X-Men?  MAME it. It is a treat. One of my favorite beat em ups!
