That is a pretty cool idea, collecting the best titles for a system. Expect to pay quite a bit for Super Mario Bros. Classic NES series though. $25-45 cart only, $35-65 CIB.

Why does it cost so much?  Wasn't it $20 new in stores when it came out?  I still think that $10 is more than enough for it, considering its been released so many times.

It was $29.99 new, and it was a relitivly low print run. And people want it. So low supply + high demand = high prices

Got this lot for €51.50

Nintendo 64 (boxed, no manual)
Black controller (boxed)
Expansion Pack (boxed)
Rumble Pack (boxed)
Unofficial Controller Pack

with 2 games:

Shadow Man (cartridge only)
Doom 64 (boxed, no manual)

I think it's a good deal, there was another lot I could've gotten that had more (and better) games, but it had only one controller, no expansion pack, no rumble, ...and for me it was important to have as much hardware accessories as possible. I can always buy games later

Mega nice haul there.

Looks cool, Ghost Soldier!

With you first "working" cab, do you mean you already have some non-working ones?

[Ghost Soldier]

^Yep, I have four non-working cabs.  Commando, Area 51, Road Riot 4wd, Revolution X.  There all in varying states of disrepair.  The shooters are missing the guns and the monitors are shot.  Commando Cab is falling apart and bad monitor.  Road Riot 4wd has a defective board and bad monitor.

Nice price too! 

That sticking pedal should be an easy fix.

Oddly enough, the 2 cabs I want most right now are Area 51 and Revolution X

I was lucky because it came with all the manuals.  I've looked at the assembly of the pedal and it looks pretty easy to fix.  Right now I like having it that way on one side.  My daughter is too little to reach the pedal so she stands in a chair and races.  Saves me from having to keep my foot on the pedal and my son plays the other side which is fully working.

I dug Revolution X out of the trash at a car wash with there permission and help.  They just tossed it in there thinking no one would want it.  After retrieving it they told me they had three more in the back garage.  I dropped the Rev X at home and went back for the other three.  All of them have something wrong, but for free I was willing to take them.  I can always use the extra parts, marquees and such.

That must've been great!

4 free cabs isn't bad. Certainly if you could fix them.
