I'm having trouble not hating you people for infecting me with a new hobby. First i find that classic Cosmic Alien cab, then i buy that Jamma-cab from Polderarcade and now 2 Naomi Universal cabs (both need some TLC) have followed me home. Now i need some kind of magic to convince the wife to let me keep them.



One Naomi already taken apart and ready for sanding and painting (that 29-inch screen is damn heavy):


And a bonus shot (It's the Naomi base):


My wallet hates you all.

We don't accept any responsibility.  Grin

By the way, if you need technical information or guidance about the Naomi's, then visit the Dutch forum at nozomi.nl (I know, the homepage is lame, but it's the forum where the action is), there is a lot of love and knowledge for Japanese gaming en cabs. something which you won't find here a lot.  Sad  Wink  Smiley

Nice! I presume one Naomi will be set in 'tate' mode (vertical monitor orientation) ? A killing setup for shmups  Smiley

I'm thinking of cutting one cab to make it a sit-down, and of course, tate it.

Indeed. But after googling your naming - it makes sense.

If I got a Naomi, I would also chop it. I like my candy cabs as sit-down :-)
