Welcome here and E_N_J_O_Y !
Your cab is a great find and even better: it's safe now.

Looks like everybody is going to Tuscany this summer, maybe we should move the Eurocade location there?  ;)

Benvenuto !

Really like that cab, the side art reminds me a bit of the Western Gun side-art somehow...

Ciao scr33n!

Here are Mad Planet and DigDug just arrived at home...



DigDug is work in progress...







I found a company that faithfully reproduces the original SIDAM t-molding used in many cabinet products in Italy but will need to buy 2000 meters at the price of 75 cents / meter. If there were at least 30 people interested in buying, with only 50 € + VAT you would buy less than 66 meters each. Not bad considering that it is impossible to find ...

Mad Planets still untuched  :(





Another interesting game is here but unluckily without pcb  >:(

Never saw the Sidam versions so far. Thanks for the pics!
I dig the Dig Dug, much nicer than our woodgrain version (even though I like 80's woodgrain, but that's another debate  ;)).

Looks like a converted cab though....

On those years most of the cabs where assembled in here in Italy (cheaper than import from USA) even under license. SIDAM or SIPEM produced many games on same cab, changing just marquee and bezel ( like Zaccaria do).
If you see, even joystick is totally different from the Gottlieb one, but all is absolutely original and not converted.
DigDug in one of the exceptions with the dedicated graphics but totally different from the USA version.
Even motherboard is produced by Sidam under license, is  totally different but use all the Namco custom Chips.
Same story for the Mad Planets pcb
