WTB: SegaSonic Arcade PCB

Several years ago I saw the SegaSonic Arcade PCB for sale on ebay but I was outbid. I recently purchased a MAS Supernova and I'm interested in picking up this game. I'm unfamiliar with System 32 hardware, so I'm looking to buy a complete SegaSonic Arcade PCB set - including both the System 32 motherboard and rom board.

As I understand it, another person on this forum bought one "for a pretty penny" and I'm well aware that such a board isn't cheap, but it's pretty much the biggest sonic game I don't currently have.

Anyone willing to part with theirs?

 

Im a huge sonic you don't happen to have any pics of its gameplay? Never played it once but had heard of it before and sorry i don't have one on me sadly to give to you man

 

Well, it's been emulated in mame for a while. A quick youtube search yields the following:

The main problem with using mame is that the game used trackball controls, and mapping trackball controls to anything but a trackball is a bit like trying to piss out of your ass - convoluted and backwards.

I'm interested in picking this up mainly for collecting purposes - I have, for all intent and purposes, every other Sonic main game released (save for stuff like Waku Waku Sonic Patrol), but seeing as this never got a port anywhere else, I'm dying to get my hands on one.

 

Oh thanks man! so it uses a trackball motion controlling never knew lol btw i've also heard of waka waka sonic patrol before (shown on sonic gems collection gamecube) seen only one pic of it and arcade cabinet too i'd always wonder how gameplay look

 

Wouldn't want to meet you in a dark alley...

 

i have the pcb but its not for sale (you will find that everyone will say that) i have been down that road and i can say that yahoo auctions japan is your best bet ..

as for the game it plays like a dream with the trackball panel it takes a bit of getting used to but when you do its a fun and easy game to complete i have done so many times and i never get board with it...i was lucky enough to play this game in the arcades near where i live i remember i found it tuff but i guess they had it on level 4 ..man that will bust your hand up good. i say that the default setting level 2 is best for this title.

segasonic arcade is a great game to play on a cab with a trackball panel.

 

I've never dealt with Yahoo Japan before. Can you describe the experience for me so I know what I'm getting into? How difficult is the language barrier? I actually speak quite a bit of japanese, but I'm still weary of doing actual business in another language.

 

Sorry to interupt but does any of you guys have a gp2x caanoo handheld by anychance that i would like to buy from you guys please? Thanks!

 

i had help with yahoo jp cos most sellers don't ship outside of japan someone bid for it on my behalf and then the pcb was sent to my mates address in japan and then on to mine.
