Fuuuuuck!!!!!!!

When we were lifting it in, it hit the kerb and came off the trolley managed to catch it, but the back got scraped up to **** on the ground.

Monitor still works thank ****.

I am so pissed off right now.

no,
you lie
was it not boxed?

o1s1n

I wish I was lying!!

Marquee took a hit too. The base is after getting a bit bent out of shape on the right. Trying to fix it now.



Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah ffs.

That marquee is a light box thing? Still working? Main thing is the monitor is ok. The scrape at the back won't be seen and can be sorted I'm sure.

o1s1n

Everything internally is perfect and works grand. Including the light box.

The monitor is absolutely beautiful, nicer than the one in my SNK Candy.

Okay I got the marquee back on. What stopped it totally snapping off was one of the bases was really loose. So that's side is fine. The other side, the base got bent all out of shape.

Managed to get it sitting on so you don't notice it. Screws won't line up on one side though. The scraped to **** bits are all at the back so you can't see them either.

So from the front it's grand. Here's a pic! No sound on Raiden II for some reason. I thought maybe a speaker had disconnected, but there's sound with a CPS2 board.

Wow,
thats something special !
Congrats and good luck with it!

o1s1n

25 inch vertical is bloody massive in person! :eek::eek::eek:

Sound didn't work in Raiden II as I hadn't inserted a credit. Quiet demo mode

Ah man this rocks so much. The monitor is just mind blowingly nice. Will have to get some proper scaline porn pics.

Andrew76

Looks awesome man! :cool:

The exact same thing happened my Ridge Racer cab when bringing it in, slipped off the trolly :mad: Thankfully it was on wooden decking & there was no damage done. Since then I've tied cabs to the trolley to be sure.

Cracking looking cab o1s1n, now get a pic of both of them together ffs

o1s1n

Didn't know that happened to your RR cab Enternow. As you said, thank feck it was decking! Mine was onto concrete. And not flat concrete at that.

Actually looking at the damage, I'm amazed it didn't go worse. Marquee aside, the cab damage is only superficial.

Here's the Holy Trinity now, SNK Candy, Sony Trinitron and the Pony. Missus hasn't come home yet - we will see if it's still like this later haha

Myrddin

They need to live beside each other man, its just how cabs roll :P

o1s1n

By the way, what the hell is with this Pony optical illusion. It looks tiny in pics but absolutely huge in person

Its a Chaos Code USB stick

Anyone know what I should do with this, would it be worth anything?

Nice find I think it's either a Ringedge or Ringwide dongle. It's the most important part, the disc to load can be an iso.

Deffo worth a few quid

Jack burton

Its a Ringedge one, well according to wikipedia anyway.

Ah nice one, Thanks to ronnie aswell for not taking a decent look in the back of the cab haha

Over to AO with this chap then? Any idea what I should be asking for it?

o1s1n

All I found in the back of my new cab was a 1 yen coin

I have a 'spare' Naomi cab that needs a lot of work

o1s1n

Wood cabs like that really dont sit well beside candy cabs IMO. Get that real estate eating monster out and a nice sparkly candy in
