Counter top model. Kinda grimy, and missing its back cover. Also, the buttons and sticks are basically shot.
$99.95 plus 5% sales tax
But it works! Screen is bright and rich (Nov 1991 man'f. date) All 10 slots populated, and all games play perfectly.
1942
Gauntlet
Super C
Balloon Fight
Excitebike
Rad Racer 2
Pin Bot
Super Mario 3
Cap'n Skyhawk
RC Pro-Am
Looks like I got a few rares (LAUGHING OUT LOUD, and Rares)
I'll post pics soon. |

OK, still haven't taken proper photos, but I did get it all cleaned up and various parts tested.
Turns out I have one bad jumper on the DIP switch bank. It is the one necessary to set free play and to set for running a NES cart adapter! Oh noes! Does anyone know who to go to in PC or arcade PCBs for DIP switch repair? |

I'd just call your local amusement dealers/repair shops. |

Unfortunately, the only one here is fairly worthless. The best I got from them was a new set of Happ locks for the cabinet. They kind of fell off the arcade map when the industry shifted to Cabela's gun games and those awful multigame "retro" cabs. Sad. |
