Hey,

I'm selling a fully working mini arcade cabinet. It's a JAMMA machine, which means all you need to do is buy some PCBs. There are plenty of dingy arcades in Korea so it's pretty easy to pick up cheap games. It's been a hardworker so the controls are a little stiff, but they work.

I've had a lot of fun with the little fella, especially when I've had friends round. It's winner when you have a house party.

150,000


I'm in Gyeongju

That looks pretty cool. Too bad your not in Seoul.
Does it take coins and notes ?
Or has it been modded?
Do you ever drive to Seoul?

Cheers

It's been modded. There's a button on the front for adding credits to a game.

I dont have a car. I'm not sure what ways I could get it to seoul. I'll have a little think. As, although I love the little machine, I kinda do need to sell it soon.

I really would like to shift this pretty soon, so i'll drop the price to 120,000.

Anyone interested? I cant be the only person around here geeky enough to want to own their own arcade machine.

Me and the arcade cabinet have now moved to Gyeongju. It's still for sale. And it's still awesome.

It's extremely simple.
There's a cable at the back of the machine, you plug that into a game board and then turn the arcade on. That's it.

You can find them on ebay, or you can get them from the dingy local arcades in Korea. They should be really cheap.

A good option is to get something like a 'Blue Elf' or 'Happy Fish' cartridge. These carts have hundreds of top games on them and you can pick them up from Alibaba.com for a reasonable price.

Maybe pictures would entice people. And it doesn't sound as easy as you say to get new games. Are you suggesting people want to play Korean arcade games?

I'm confused.

post some pictures. The button layout will determine how much or less extra work will be required to play certain jamma games.
