Title: About to buy a Virtual Racing cab for..200$! :O
Post by: Shuri on April 12, 2010, 08:55:22 PM

I'm about to seal the deal on a 200$CAN Virtua Racing arcade cabinet! The game works perfect, the monitor is in great shape! This is going to ROCK!! I *HATE* buying arcade cabs because you never know what the fuck youre gonna get (especially when buying them online).. but the pics were great (even if the cab design was kinda lamo) but being able to play VR at home is going to be fuckawesome!

..and that was my gaming thread of 2010.

Is it moddable for other games?  Sounds like a great deal, especially compared to the $400 steering wheel that I bought a year ago.

That's cool.  I would love to get into collecting arcade games, but I live in an apartment.

No pics?

Rman, just buy a standard arcade cabinet, stick a PC in there and be able to play more than 90% of the arcade games ever made.

I know.  But the fun comes from getting the real deal.  But, yeah, I've heard of MAME cabs.

JEALOUS

Also I conned my boss into making space for a MAME cabinet at work. It's the best thing ever.  :heart

What the fuck. I showed up and the steering wheel was half broken! What a waste of time, I drove 1h to pick it up! A new wheel is like half of the price of the cab. What the fuck
