Saweeet...

Hanti vector.....that is SOOOOOO rare :)

And of course the game too :)

@Shilmover: I don't think it is so simple just to copy the ROMs, (Vector)MAME should also support the hardware I guess ?

It's an original Cinematronics pcb, but the Zaccaria logo is also there ;D


I turned on the machine then, the screen is perfect, the game is running and I can also hear the sounds, but  some kind of disturbing static sound was also there:

Any input about this sound would be appreciated. ;)

Thanks to Ully's precise german protecting method, the glasses also arrived in one piece

And the 2 original flyers I bought from Thorsten with the Space Pirate schematics

@Shilmover: Sorry....forgot that it was actually a Cinematronics game....BUT, the daughterboard with sound is different AFAIK....
It wouldn't be that much different from the original game I guess ?

@Belike: man it looks nice !!! The papers even haven't yellowed (or are they repro's?) Nice sheet for the monitor !

That noises don't sound right though....

Everything is original, the papers are in really good shape indeed. ;)
Some more pics



And the height difference between a Williams and a Zaccaria cab ;D


That sound seems like some kind of static electronic noise, I can hear all the effects of the game(shooting, blasts, etc.) behind it. ???

puh, i'm so glad that everything arrived safe and sound in one piece - especially since the driver of that van must have been up for about 46,412 hours. hopefully you'll get the sound issue on the space pirate fixed soon, that cabinet deserved a lot of gameplay!
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

Looking very nice Bela, you're a lucky man, and Ully did a bloody fantastic job with the packing. I know how difficult it is to wrap something with very cold fingers, almost impossible. Nice done.  ;D

....and THAT is the BAD thing about the "open borders"......with all respect but these eastern Europe (truck)drivers are completely NUTS !

Recently someone died here because one was TURNING AROUND his truck and trailer ON THE HIGHWAY !!!  :twisted: :twisted:

Here in Hungary the driver and also the company he is working for get a serious punishment(thousands of euros) if they doesn't observe the mandatory stopovers.
Our driver started from Ully's at 8 pm. and arrived to my place at 11 am, I guess he took a rest, 900 kilometers doens't last 15 hours with that Mercedes. :P

Our driver started from Ully's at 8 pm.

the question is: what did he do before? i got a call from the company telling me that the driver will be delayed - and i'm pretty sure because of traffic and not because he was sleeping :P. anyway, everything worked out fine, i was just wondering where the guys take the energy to stay awake ...

perhaps here :arrow:
