Congratulations!!

Afterburner is a great game....

I'm suprised no one has attempted to get the awesome sitdown motion simulation style Afterburner cabinet!  It's always cool to see it in T2!



I know I'd love to have this style of the game... The last time I saw one was at a bowling alley in 1993, while playing Mortal Kombat.. when MK was still new! 
There's one for sale here:

What about this :

"Virtual Reality:
VR2000 - VR2000 virtual reality - van € 1.950,- nu voor € 1.395,- excl. BTW (zeer zeldzaam)"


Not common at all if it's the kind of game I'm thinking about...

I know, these 90's VR games suck regarding the gameplay... but some of them may be interesting ... but ...Argh! No picture :oops:

You did an outstanding job with the emulation, quite inspiring. Do you play other driving games on the Chase Hq cab?

Thanks!
No Just Chase HQ on that one as that's the way I wanted it as i've got a Cruisin' USA upright cabinet converted too that has MAME and the Model2 emulator on it as well as PC games too like Crazy Taxi, Midtown Madness, Outrun2 etc.

Here are the two driving cabs side by side,


the Chase HQ cab now has a 20" TV tube in it instead of the 19" PC monitor that was in the video


On the Cruisin' Cab i've put 4 buttons that match the colour of the ones used for the VR buttons in Daytona, If I could have got hold of the right type of VR buttons i'd have used them instead but i'm happy with how it is now. You will also notice the 2 shifters i've got on it.... the 4 way shifter is for games like Daytona & Sega Rally and also doubles up as the High/Low shifter for Outrun etc (using gear positions 1&2) and the Up/Down shifter on the left is for games Like Outrun2 and Sega Touring Cars... it's also the up and down control for my game menu with the red button on the VR buttons acting as the "Enter/Select" button.

The High/Low stickers have been removed though now as they didn't look right (as it's a UP/DOWN) shifter that centre's it's self via a spring.
