Taito cabinets "archives" with pics

[Sukebe]

Hello!

I wanted to share with you some model and photos of Taito cabinet that I discovered during my research (long) on Taito and their cabinet.
Some models are very little known and are not listed in the WikiArcadeOtaku the others are more common but I still wanted to include them (no HD cabinet sorry)
I hope you enjoy!

I didn't know where to put this post if it didn't in the right section sorry

7 posts since 2017, and you just casually drop this?!

Dude! Very cool post, especially the images of all of these cabs in their natural environment.

Great stuff!

[LEGENOARYNINLIA]

Poured myself a whiskey to enjoy while soaking in the athmosphere from the photos.

You should definitely share these on Twitter.

Some great pics there and great research.
Really interesting seeing these cabs that are so similar to other cabs of the time but different enough to make them stand out. Quite the art form.
The 37" one looks very futuristic with its curves.

Thanks for uploading

Cheers
Mark

Incredibles pictures thank you!

[Sukebe]

Thanks for all comments happy you like it.

Unfortunately I don't have a Twitter account but I will consider doing one, thanks for the idea.

I continue my quest hoping to find a photo of the TT-28 of better quality and maybe other models of cabinets

[emphatic]

[thomj]

These pics belong in a museum the AO wiki

[geotrig]

Some great detective work there Mr Columbo Sukebe the fact you have found quiet a few of the obscure cabs in random pics is fantastic stuff !

[Olisan]

Crazy pics!
All the M series cabinets looks so fantastic

[Aurich]

Incredible history, thanks for posting. I've never seen some of these before, the Teatro EX 25 is especially cool. I think if my bad translation guessing is accurate that the flyer says there's a Fresnel lens in it to enlarge the image from the reflected 25" monitor.

[opt2not]

Thanks for sharing these! Amazing pictures.

[Sukebe]

Thanks for your comments and hanks for the translation of the flyer TeatroEX25 it's great info on this cabinet.

@geotrig My investigation has not yet finished (When I tell my wife that^^)

@Olisan The taito of the M series have a fantastic retro futuristic look

@nem Thanks When I have a moment I will integrate them into Wiki AO. If anyone else wants to do it no worries.

Very cool pictures, a lot of those older Taito cabinets are really hard to find info for. Would love to see all this collected into something like those joystick gamers magazines.

[muddymusic]

Fantastic post! Really enjoyed looking through all those pictures.

[Alpha1]

The pictures of the Taito MA/MB cabinets are my actual cabs

[sven666]

Very cool! I dont usually go for collectors cabs like this but damn i want that teatro ex..

I dont usually go for collectors cabs like this but damn i want that teatro ex..

I would settle for just getting to see one in person honestly. I'm kind of obsessed with it still after seeing those flyer photos.
