Game Introduction

This system lets you play arcade games at home on your TV. It is a great idea, but it does not compare to playing the games in an actual cabinet. For the casual user, though, it should be just fine.

Scarce - There are 4 known instances of this machine owned by Super Nova collectors who are active members. Of these, 3 of them are original dedicated machines. One is a set of circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired.

Wanted - No active members have added this machine to their wish list.

This game ranks a 1 on a scale out of 100 (100 = most often seen, 1=least common) in popularity based on census ownership records.

Rarity and Popularity independently are not necessarily indications of value. [More Information]

Technical

There is a 10-pin female connector for buttons four through six.

Fixes

One annoying design flaw is that there is no volume control or on/off switch for the internal speaker so you will need to add your own. The joysticks are not all that great for fighting games.
