Corbie's Stuff - General Discussion Forum

I've gotten a bunch of emails asking for me to put up some stuff from my collection, not to mention people wanting to know how I got some of this stuff, so I'll use this topic to post a new pic each day along with a bit of history on the stuff. I bought the Japanese Neo Geo arcade cabinet in 2000 for around $900. After owning the Neo Geo AES home system and getting tired of paying the $300+ for some of the games and then finding out how long the load times were on the CD systems, I decided to bite the bullet and buy an MVS arcade cabinet. The games are cheaper plus you get that authentic arcade experience. I replaced the stock joysticks and buttons with Sanwa JLF sticks and Sanwa OSBF-30 buttons. Worth every penny too. Currently, I have Garou: Mark of the Wolves, Samurai Shodown II, Blazing Star , and Viewpoint in the 4-slot board inside the cabinet. The Taito Egret II cabinet I bought about a year ago for about $1200 after wanting to own a good shooter cabinet for a long time. You can easily rotate the monitor from vertical to horizontal and back which makes it great for shmups. I also replaced the buttons and stick on this one, but I went with the Seimitsu LS-32 stick due to it being so much better with shmups, but I stuck with those silky smooth Sanwa buttons like the ones on my Neo Geo cabinet. Currently I have Cave's amazing shmup Muchi Muchi Pork in this cabinet.

Corbie, I think you should put your gameroom up, but like wait outside your house to have people walk by, then show them around inside and give them a tour of all your stuff, and make money to expand it even more, lol. Like a museum
how much should he charge though 2.50 a ticket? or maybe 4.00

He's got a lot of rare stuff, maybe 10 or 20 dollars. Stuff that's very hard to see in real life with the human eye, lol

Awesome. I really wanted a table top Pan Man machine for a while but I didnt want to spend over a 100 USD. I think they're pretty cool. Man if I had a collection like you I would have no place to live... because of space issues.
