Is $600 dollars a good price for...
A Captain America and the Avengers arcade game? Has anyone ever bought an arcade machine? I've been tossing this idea around for awhile on what to waste my tax return on.

I'd kill for a Daytona USA twin cabinet. No home version ever captured the thrill of the real deal, and the game can't be emulated (yet).

I haven't bought an arcade cabinet yet, but one of the first ones I would buy would be a Neo Geo MVS. Pop'n Music and Guitar Freaks would be on my list of cabinets to consider as well.
Although I don't have much experience yet in shopping for arcade games, I'd say that sounds like a good price to me from what I've seen, especially if it's in good condition. |

Haha, that's the game I never knew the name of for so many years. Used to play it in this one arcade all the time and then they got rid of it. Very fun game. If you're big into arcade games I'd say that's a good price but don't forget the fact that mame exists. I wouldn't mind owning cabinets for Double Dragon 1 & 2 or either TMNT game.

Yeah I know about mame, it's just I'd like to own the actual machine with all the artwork on it. I've been looking at some other ones like TMNT and that X-Men game with Colossus and Dazzler in it, but they are more expensive than Cap and the Avengers for some reason.

IMO, they're better games...and more popular so that explains the higher $$$

I saw a Turtles In Time one on Ebay for 400 years back. But I didn't have ANY money at the time. Now I have plenty to buy stuff with and I can't find one at all just the older game.

I've seen pretty good prices on ebay for certain cabinets. Problem is always transporting it. Shipping it would cost a fortune and I don't have a vehicle that it would fit in nor could I rent one since I'm too young. Not to mention the fact that it would have to be close by.
