Well here it is, the single speaker Konami arcade cabinet that spent it's life as an X-Men, NBA Jam Tournament Edition, and then Fisherman's Bait has finally had its dignity restored. I spent a few weeks working on this over the summer and it's finally completed. A lot has happened here and I'll inevitably forget some details but I'll offer some highlights. The entire cabinet was stripped, sanded and cleaned. Bondo was used to fill holes and the cabinet was sanded and repainted. The CRT was pulled, cleaned, and washed. The monitor chassis was cleaned recapped and given a new flyback. The sides of the cabinet were laminated and given new artwork. The entire control panel was replaced and I added in Wico reproduction sticks and Rollie Leaf switch buttons. Since the game has no freeplay mode I added credit buttons for each of the four players in the coin returns (no drilling or irreversible damage to any parts). The game operates fully off of orginal hardware with GI Joe, Simpsons, TMNT, and Sunsetriders boards installed. No software emulation to be found anywhere, this is the real deal.
