maxpower Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 A guy came into work today and saw my US style cocktail and said I have an old crap one at home. Had it for 10ish years. Has pacman he told me but it's a space invaders clone. He needed a 1gig Ram stick for his PC so he said he will swap me for it. It works and plays but the monitor is abit sick. Still good for $22!!!

maxpower Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 dam good score. universal cocktails rock they must be cheap mine was $5 LOL I was looking for your pics to show the wife but couldn't find them. When I got it home she like's it!! I don't really want it but I couldn't let it go. It works fine but the monitor is abit bright, & when you play 2 players the screen doesn't rotate. Be a fun job tho doing it up. I'm just rapped I got the glass clips on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcadus Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Just repaired one of these for a mate,originally "cosmic Monsters" (colour version of space invaders) but had a Phoenix. Rotating players ,I think is a dipswitch setting. Good score! mate paid $350 for his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxpower Posted November 1, 2008 Author Share Posted November 1, 2008 gotta be inthe right place right time It's funny cause this guy didn't say anything about having a cab. He came back to pick up his PC & we got talking about crap & I said I play with these in my spare time and then he said I have one at home. I think you need to wear a T-shirt or write on your forehead WANTED MORE CABS and see if people click then. Narf if you can send a pic of the coin door that would help alot please. No hurry tho. And BTW I love that carpet too!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try the pic's first. It's funny that on 2 players the screen doesn't flip but you have to use the 2nd player controls. Will get some pic's when I start playing with it. There's 29 years of black dust in there and that familiar smell of the old wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
