  • Awesome pickup! Great game to boot! There is a MvsC 1 here for sale, but they want too much for it...oddly...they have a MKII machine....same thing. The 2 I want, and they are overpriced and shredded.



    Again...awesome pickup.



    Edit* Gonna take ya for a ride!....da-na-na-na...da-nah-na-na....gonna take ya for a ride!!!
  • Man that is awesome. I forgot about that one but that's one of the few arcade machines I would spend the money on to have. How much didmyounend up paying? At an auction, you rabble got a good deal.
  • I am super jealous! What a great cabinet to have!

    Thanks man! That's too bad they are both overpriced. Auctions are where its at. It hasn't even been a full day yet and that song is constantly stuck in my head.


  • Yeah man, that is a good looking cabinet of MVC2 to have. Nice large size, yes and how much did you pay for that? Also, don't even get me started on how much I played MVC2 back in the days....

    Wow, that is a really nice price for the game.  So I take it the sticks and buttons work ok?

    Yeah the game plays fine. It needs a little cosmetic work. The CPO plexi isn't great and the previous owner had a card system, so the coin door needs replacing. Hobbes came over last night and we played it for a couple hours.
  • Well, all you gotta do is set it on free play and your good to go. Also, I'm not sure how much plexi glass costs, but I'm sure you can find out...
  • Soooooo friggin' jealous over here! That thing is beautiful!
  • WOW. Thats a great deal at $640. I have a Mavel Vs. Capcom 2 arcade as well, but mine is in an smaller street fighter champion edition cab with a 27" monitor. (still couldnt get it in my basement). So here it has sat in my livingroom for the past six years. I payed $1000 for mine. The greatest part is the jamma. I got 6 other boards I can swap in and out (Im sure yours is the same way). Now that you have the cab just find some other boards to put in it once ya get tired of that game. I scored Marvel vs street fighter, marvel vs capcom 1, xmen vs street fighter, street fighter ex3 and ghosts n goblins off a guy in Calgary a few years years back all for $400. It was a super killer deal and now I got a great arcade line up. Also bought SNK Chaos for $150 off ebay, unfortuatly I cant get it to work properly cause its set up for a neogeo arcade, and only the kick bttons work when I try to play that one . Enjoy!
  • Awesome man. That's my favorite game of all time, and I've probably put 5k+ hours into it when considering tournaments/training mode/friendly games. Super jealous.
  • I definitely need one of these, congratulations!

    Mine is a Naomi version. It's JAMMA but the kick harness on it is different from the SF2 CE I have. So we only get punch. A ghosts and goblins would be really sweet.

    Ohh it's already on free play. I still want the coin doors and all to be complete. It's a good thing that I have a buddy in the plastics business, should make the plexi replacement less damaging on the wallet.
  • Nice score! I bought one in a showcase cab similar to yours at auction as well a couple years ago. They couldn't get it to come on so I ended up getting it for $150. Got it back to my arcade, opened it up and the jamma connector had detached from the Naomi board. Easiest fix ever. Gotta love auctions. As-is where is.
