Mini Korean cab info

Post by Spectrexcwk »

Hello,

A Korean restaurant near has 3 mini Gameplus cabs that look exactly like this:

They each have a working Neo Geo inside. They seem pretty interesting, but I can’t find any info about these kind of cabs online. Does anyone have any details? Is there a reason no one appears to own them?

All of them have broken coin mechanisms so the restaurant just leaves them in attract mode all day. I’ve been toying with the idea of asking to buy them.

Thanks!

Probably because they're Korean?

The manufacturer / reseller is still in business.

Is this it?

Seen these types of cabs a few times in Korean Drama series.

They are almost always located outside of small convenience stores.

I imagine that most of them get trashed from being outside and exposed.

Hey nem, do you know if those Joy-Ro 21 cabs still get produced and sold?
I don´t get the shop info. On the text it says something about 29... but on the picture it shows the 21 version.

I think they don´t look that bad. Ok, you would have to paint the bezel and the speckers black or dark grey and put some new artwork on the cab, but the cab itself doesn´t look bad.
And for people who like small cabs, this maybe would be a goo opportunity to get a small cab without paying 3000€ or something.
