Whitch cab´s are you still looking for as a "must have"/grail/wishful thinking

[Reboot]

All very nice cab are listed here indeed. Here are my favourite's

1. Outrun deluxe sitdown     Found   
2. bishi bashi
3. Burgertime
4. Star Wars cockpit
5. Tempest



My most favourite game of all time because when i saw/played it in my childhood at the yearly town carnival (the standard sitdown) it just blew me away, awesome!(bought 3, now still owning 2 of them  ). Hopefully they all work.



Played the playstation version for houres with the kids, great partygame



Also one of the few real arcade cabs i played in my youth because my family had it in their restaurant for a few month.



Just an awesome game and it is star wars, nuff said 



Played this one for houres also on one of my brothers computer/console (c64 or atari st or amiga or on all, don't remember anymore, just that it is a super game). Playing it on a dedicated cab it would be even nicer

[Muerto]

Let´s limit it to max 5 games (for now) and dedicated games.. - With pictures!
State name of the game (doh!) - and why you want it...

I, myself is all ways looking - and there´s still dreams about the perfect setup...

1. Elevator Action - Because it´s a cool and addictive game!, and would be the 2nd Taito game in my Taito row  

Found

2.
Canyon Bomber - Because one game is never enough!, cool design, simple and addictive game play.

Found

3. Star Wars Cockpit - Because i have space (!) and after trying it at EC11, it´s a must!!!!

Found

4. Empire Strikes Back Cockpit - If you have 2, you can all ways fit the 3rd, and a row of SWC´s must be heaven, sight wise...

Found - SW w. ESB kit

5. Donkey Kong - Red cab (of course) because it´s epic, great looking, and DAMN hard!

Still looking, maby in the 2nd container...

Mmmm, let's review my list:

1) Gravitar

2) Burger Time

3) Robotron (even though I can play it on my Joust now)

4) A second Nintendo cab to have one vertical, one horizontal one

5) Mad Planets

6) Other vectors.....oops only allowed 5

Mmmm, only the order has changed I'm afraid...:

1) Gravitar

2) Mad Planets

3) Burger Time

4) Robotron (even though I can play it on my Joust now)

5) A second Nintendo cab to have one vertical, one horizontal one

6) Other vectors.....oops only allowed 5

[Tyrem]

hm. I still would love to have:

- Joust
- Star Wars
- Super Sprint
- Q-Bert
- Defender

[nilfisk]

Time for some underdogs, I suppose:

Monaco GP Cabaret.

Even though it was quite common around here in the early 80s, I now keep getting offered the much rarer Pro (which I own already) and Cocktail versions, but have yet to find a cabaret. Well, to be exact, I had one chance to grab one about 10 years ago, but somehow missed it.

There are plenty around for sure....I've really seen these quite a few times throughout Europe...

[slowcade]

My list has some old and new:
1. Outrun 2 SP
2. Donkey Kong
3. Super Mario Kart GP
4. Off The Wall (Bally Sente)
5. Crayon Shinchan (rare Bishi Bashi-like game)

[ckong]

This is difficult, there are lots of great games still to be desired. But for now my top 5 would be:

Nr. 1: Moon Cresta

FOUND

OK, it is a Moon crest by Zaccaria, but the game is Moon cresta and the cab is beautiful. So this is good enough for me.  



Nr. 2: Tempest

DELETED

I still like the game very much, but by now I already have some great SHMUP's and plenty of vector games.

Nr. 3: Gyruss

FOUND  



Nr. 4. Frogger

FOUND



What is there to say, very fun and addictive gameplay and I like the looks of the woodgrain cabinet. I´m hoping that this game will also end up in my collection one day.

Nr. 5: Juno First

FOUND

For pictures, see this topic. This seems to be a popular game, which is highly desriable but hard to get. As Tempest I played this game for the first time at the South Coast Slam and I loved every minute of it. Would be great to add to my other games.

This is my top 5 0 for now, and there is little chance that it will change. But as I said, there are lots of other great games, like R-Type, BurgerTime, etc.

This is my updated wish list. So, if anyone knows a Juno First or a Frogger for sale, please give me a ring. I'm in for trades.

Poor CKONG.....no more grails.....

[Muerto]

Time to update this again....
As I have (and most of you) found the cabs I was looking for, I stumbled over this oddity 3 days ago.
In Barcade NY, there was a Slither, didn't think much about it when I first saw it, so I coined it up, and wow, what a cool game awesome gameplay.
It's trackball controlled and with a fire up and down button. And by the looks and gameplay, I think the guys from GDI have been inspired by Centipede.
So now the hunt continues, would very much like this game in the shed...

Here it is in all its beauty....

[vernimark]

here is my list... 

  1) STAR WARS COCKPIT
  2) STAR TREK COCKPIT
  3) QUANTUM
  4) MAJOR HAVOC

ah, empty shell is ok for me; I already have most of the content of these cabs (with the exception of quantum...)
