Been wanting a Gauntlet Arcade for YEARS! Found one on offer up for $450! What a steal! And a pain to transport as it's the big one..... Hopefully it all works

FP Edit: first time to the front page!

I understand my inbox is to be filled soon enough......

Any Vegas peeps?

Sides look pretty good

Robocop approves

All setup, Gauntlet Legends! It lives!

Oh no, I beat it, maybe I should upgrade it to dark legacy......

Parts ordered, time to open it up. Instructions.....

An upgrade kit apparently to goto legends v 1.6

And the chips to do so

The innards

Upgrade kit arrived! Dark legacy and CF upgrade

HDD removed, time to remove the IC chips

CF and chips in

Bam! Dark Legacy! I'll see everyone in three weeks.......

They had it for the N64, pretty great game.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Yeah I saw it was available for N64 on youtube. I'll definitely look into it. Seems like an interesting title.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I haven't played it in 20yr never owned my self but it was pretty fun. The PC one made recently did not really capture the feel of the game.

Is this the version that allowed you to use a N64 memory card to keep characters between games (both console and arcade)?

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

There are no external ports of any sorts on this

I feel old having played the NES version as a kid, and this version as a teen lol..

Amen sister. I remember the G1 arcade at the laundromat, didn't have NES but had the Atari 2600

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

You got a sick bargain. Legends cabinets should be 2000+ based on what I've been seeing.
