Looks like the plug that came with my EZ2DJ; also a machine from South Korea. Perhaps these were on the same container a couple of years back 🙂 Local legend djcalle did a wonderful video on his. Perhaps it'll have some useful info for you mate.

Haha yeah I'll just call him. I'll try to fix it myself at this rate, I've learned quite a bit in the last 6 months. Yes but I don't recall mentioning it to him so it must've been someone else 🙂

I think Steve's had a dead Kortek of mine for about 6 months now? I didn't have it in me to lie about it being on-site but that's what everyone told me to say lol. I should get up his arse about it as I wanted to re-home the tube. Good luck with the tosh chassis mate. Curious to hear how he goes with it.

The -01 just denotes the presence of the PCB with the 5pin wire harness connector as opposed to a regular LS-## which needs quick disconnects for each microswitch.

It looks like a Kortek, maybe a 2914DF? (or the single focus variant) I have a broken one currently being repaired. When it worked it looked excellent, at least in 31k anyway. Those Samsung tubes are decent imo so good find 🙂

Change of mind sorry, disregard! G'day fellas. I've got a CPS3 setup here I'd like to part with. Comes with everything you see in the photos and is currently running 3rd strike but can run any of the other CPS3 titles if you desire, just needs to be re-written as per the startup menu. Seems to be a later revision board without the factory bodge and is very clean. Asking $1500 shipped. Not looking for any trades. I'll update with a photo and video of it running tomorrow, just realized I didn't take one... Also a heads up, I have this listed on another forum. Cheers!

Sega Cities probably come up as often as a Taito Canary or something along those lines. I imagine most of them saw landfill or Chinese landfill. Here's one that sold for 322k JPY this year https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/v1052777155 For its age I'd say that's in great shape. But you know, unless you're in bed with the right people by the time you bring one here you're paying a pretty incredible amount... Speaking of being financially irresponsible, I'm thirsty for a Konami Windy 1, anyone? 😅 Also since I'm posting more. Here's an old shot of some of my cabs. I'll post a pic of the full family once I have finished a move later this year.

Belated feedback but finally I don't have to awkwardly send spreadsheets to tops once a year, thank you so much for taking the plunge in providing us not just the bare essentials but the exotic odds and ends as well. Seeing you now stock kdit stuff warmed my heart as my attempts to wrangle stock off rs2006 didn't go so well, I would occasionally peruse the site with a defeated sigh. Again, thank you. My quest to replace every single stick of mine with a LS-40 has been made that much easier.

It looks like a 3pin JST VH series, same as you'd find on a Nanao chassis for the power

Oh awesome, I planned on buying a fat stack of those as all my cabs are set for 100jpy. Thanks for taking the plunge and comparing mate.

SOLD - NO GAMES ARE INCLUDED. - Control panel bezel was originally pretty gross, covered in ciggie burns. Filled and sanded back then repainted, I think I did an ok job but as such it's not stock anymore. Got a repro panel for it too as the old one had a healthy amount of rust in it. - Fluro/Speakers work! - Missing PSU - Original PSU died spectacularly. Some re-wiring required. - Phillips tube (burn free) and Jomac Universal Chassis - Not the original Nanao MS9-29A - Video connector needs re-wiring : was originally using this in an Astro City. - Only 1 lock + key, front door. - No rotation mech but the rest of the monitor frame is original. I wish they all had handles. - Credit PCB gone, no coin mech or coin mech holder. - Cabinet has been given a light vacuum after those photos were taken, otherwise a bit of a rats nest. - Body is a bit tired looking. - Two random bits cut out in the back, I could only assume this was done back when the original chassis died? - Will include a full set of buttons and sanwa JLF sticks. Essay aside (I think thats everything). It just needs a new PSU and some wiring to be re-done and it's more or less good to go, I've been a bit critical but I want to make it clear that this cabinet needs some kind of work at the very least. I fomo'ed back into this hobby a bit so I overpaid big time lol, while I have learned a lot from the experience, Namco cabs just aren't my thing. Pricing it at what I think it's more or less worth but I'm open to any reasonable offers. Cheers.

Hi lads, got one of these kicking around. https://www.arcadespareparts.com/arcade_parts/dance_dance_revolution_parts/dance_dance_revolution_marquee_panel/12119.html This one was pulled from a euro cabinet I believe, no cracks or chips or artwork, just the marquee panel you stick the marquee art to. Can ship interstate if you've got a cab that needs some love.

Zax recently sold a pair to a mate of mine for a very fair price given what they were originally asking. While they're not on the site anymore, if you're really keen I suppose you could give him a try haha. Also do you mean the screws that secure the bracket into fibreglass body of the astro? I think they're the same ones used in the control panel hinge, at least they screwed in just as easily for this Astro 2 I'm slowly restoring ':^) I'll do a count on any spares I have kicking about incase you can't find anything more local.

So in my Pop'n Music cabinet I'm running a "new" Wei-ya CRT (well, it's an LG tube and wei-ya chassis running @ 31khz) and somethings always looked a bit off. So I did some googling, consensus appears to be that their CRT's are a bit... underwhelming. Yet sometimes I'll see a video or a photo of one running and think wow, that looks incredible compared to mine. I know CRT's aren't meant to be perfect, but having spent the better part of my youth playing on Egret 2's (ms9's were the standard in those weren't they?) and various Bemani machines that were looked after (i think they were usually toshiba tubes, no idea about the chassis) I can't help but feel a bit spoiled. Did I just end up with a dud and pay through the teeth only to feel a little stupid, or is this genuinely the case? Either way, I'm definitely regretting paying for it... Thoughts? I'll slap down some photos later demonstrating how disappointing this monitor is (or how high my expectations may have been for a "new" monitor)

The social aspect isn't as personal as what I got to experience in my arcade days, I definitely wish I got to experience it more as online gaming doesn't quite do it for me. Cherish those memories lads
