Finally got my permanent line up of games in my 4 slot MVS. Last Blade 2, Metal Slug X (or 3), Bust A Move, Blazing Star. Thanks to all who gave the great suggestions on what games to get. Here's a video of the beast in action.

Fucking awesome video, man. I am jealous of that, even though my Third Strike machine is cooler. But then again, you probably don't have a suicide battery to worry about either.
Shake it, Quake it, Space Kaboom.

Agreed, your Third Strike is absolutely stunning. No, no suicide battery here, the maintenance on the MVS is very easy and the wiring job the guy did on this cab is top notch.

Really not as much as other cabs. The control panel flips down allowing easy access to the motherboard and the controls. Other than replacing the internal battery and a cap kit every 5-6 years the system is as reliable as the SNES.

Yeah, messing with the CPS3 board and security cart is like walking through a mine field. I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I bought it, not that it would have changed my mind anyway. I'm thinking about tracking down a copy of Red Earth for it, I was watching a few youtube videos of gameplay and it looks pretty sweet.

Red Earth would be sweet but I'm pretty sure you are gonna need to add some memory to your motherboard before it will play. Also, if you need a great guide to replacing that battery, this one is great.

Needs more Rage of the Dragons & Garou: MotW. But awesome nonetheless.
