Hi im looking to buy one of these machines to play PCB's.
Im not familiar with them, but would like to know more about them
I want to play all the old PCB games on it like Twin Cobra, Aero Fighters and Raiden etc etc.
I also hear that I can rotate the monitor with these machines to play Other games as well.?

Thanks

Rotating the monitor is easy

They are egret's not egret 2's by the way. A very sought after cab nowadays. Those look in great condition also.

edit: you might notice that one is horizontal and one is vertical.

That black one is rad. I've never seen that variation. Is that custom?

It's all about those sweet drink holders.

Yeah, that would be a custom-painted black Egret cab alrighty. Looks mighty suave and sexy in that color scheme. ^_~

i always thought the original egret was an ugly ass cab. i guess i'm in the minority here though. egret 2 is a much nicer looking machine.

I own an egret 1 (and a 2, actually) and even I think the egret 1 is pretty much the ugliest thing ever.

It also has no room inside, which can be annoying

the egret 2 is just a big square like every other cab. Egret 1's look cool. I do think they are a little too slanted though (screen). and the sound isn't so hot- not very bassy.

Egret 29 cabinets are cute because they're ugly.

That black/red one is the sexiest EGRET (I) I've ever seen. Still, the bottom part just look weird over at one side like that. Are you supposed to put your feet over to the right?

Nah, that's where you put your MAME PC tower.

No kidding. Maxlords is the only one I know with a 29 and he's not going to want to part with it.
