WTB: Nintendo Vs. Dualsystem
Hi, I've been looking all over but I can't find a Vs. Dualsystem anywhere. I probably just don't know where to look, but either way, does anyone have a Nintendo Vs. Dualsystem (The main cabinet and the PCB) they'd be willing to sell? The high range that I'd be able to pay is 200$ for the cabinet and PCB alone, but with a game I can raise that. Also, is that a fair price, or are they worth a lot more? Ideally, if you have a game with it as well, I'm looking for Vs. Ice Climber, Vs. Balloon Fight, Vs. Super Mario Bros., or Vs. Clu Clu Land. I'll accept the upright or cocktail versions, I only ask that it works and is in decent condition. I live in southeastern Wisconsin. If you have a system for sale, even if it isn't 200$ or less, please send me a message. I may be able to sway on the price to a degree.
If you own a Nintendo Red Tent and you are willing to sell, please send a PM. Games or not, preferably just cabinet+pcb. Alternatively, I'm also looking for a RP2CO4-0003 PPU, if anyone happens to have one.
Thanks in advance!

That is a solid price. Around here, they sell for 600-700. Also, if you do find a red tent and its missing either one of the monitors, realize they use an oddball sized monitor which is pretty uncommon to find. Almost every person I know who bought red tents missing monitors ended up buying other project red tents to steal the monitors out of them.

Luckily mine had both monitors but one has some severe burn in. I am not sure if anything can be done to repair it or if I need to replace it. Mine also came with one side that had the Playchoice 10 conversion kit installed and came with 6 PC10 games!

You would need to do a tube swap for the burn in. Jeff [Subcon] picked up a red tent from a fellow NAer and his had the PC conversion kit installed as well. Its pretty cool to have it in the red tent, but man have PC10 carts skyrocketed in price... Which PC carts do you have?

Sadly, something blew on the VS. side and it no longer works but my PC10 side still works great. I bought a few games afterwards, here is what I have:
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario Bros. 2
Super Mario Bros. 3
Punch-Out
Double Dragon
Super C
Dr. Mario
Gauntlet
Ninja Gaiden

I have no idea what happened, it was really humid that day and when I turned on the machine I heard some kind of sizzling sound inside the cab, then the video and sound on the VS. side got all messed up so I powered it off. When I powered it back on it was completely dead, no video, no sound, nothing. I want to try to replace the Vs. PCB and see if that fixes it but I don't have a spare one to test.
