Two Mini MVS' Left To Die

Post by hashiriya1 »

I was going thru some pics and found these. I took these last month when I stopped
to buy stoges out of a vending machine. Two mini MVS machines left out to die
in the back of a grocery store along with other things. It looks like they were out
there for a while. It was raining earlier in the day, so they are probably nice
and soggy on the inside.



A moment of silence.

[3] Real Bout 2
[4] Twinkle Star Sprites

Any inquiry if up for grabs? Possibly might be resurrected?
There is a recent thread about building a custom arcade, these are a step there.

Wow never seen that type of arcade from Neo-geo. In what country or state/city was this Neo geo from? Surprised only 3 buttons while im guessing the other is start button. "I wish beautiful naked women would fall out from sky"- jason mewes

Im guessing the arcade machines came from Japan, amazing buried treasure. I remember finding an old Street fighter 2 cabinet with no arcade game because someone stoled it from barbar shop.

There are 4 buttons. The START button is below the screen. The button in the middle is to choose the game. These pics were taken in Japan. I've seen one of these still in operation, pictured below:

Twinkle Star Sprites? Please tell me you checked to see if the cart was in there. Heck, even the marquee is worth a bit.

Wanted a neogeo 4 cart for the last 6 years and have not gotten the nerve or the space to bite. Seeing these pictures made me cry.
