I Finally got a REAL Killer Instinct Cabinet! | The Holy Grail Purchase! 

Killer instinct was so incredible back then, and now!

Nice man, congrats! It looks like it’s in great shape too! So glad you finally got your grail! 🙏🏼 The monitor looks bright and tight too! Great score man! I might have an extra supergun if you want to use it to test your PCB. Let me know. For sure go IL’s you will be happy with them they have the original HAPP competition feel. IL was the manufacturer of the HAPP competition before the suzo / HAPP merger.

You scored a fully working KI in nice condition, plus an extra PCB. Congratulations. You totally deserve it. If you get the other PCB working, you should frame and display it in your game room. I’m Super happy for you. Everything happens for a reason no matter how long it takes. You found a really great deal and I can’t wait to see how it looks after it’s been with you for a year. Great Freaking Job on the pickup.

Spent hours just watching people playing the damn game back in 1994 (could not afford playing it, at the time) and, now I am 50 year-old, still dreaming of owning this kind of cab ! You lucky "dog", enjoy ! ;))

That is something I personally wanted to experience for a LONG time, because that is my favorite fighting game of all time. I own and played the SNES version, but never the arcade, because they're SO HARD TO FIND! Awesome, man!

Congrats man! It’s nice to see good things happen to great people that help others out in the gaming community.

That’s awesome, congrats!

That looks great man. Congrats! I'm happy for you since we all know how much you love the game. Always nice to splurge a bit on something that means a lot to you and isn't just a random collectable or FOMO pickup. Worth the money for sure.

That’s so badass how it has the four quarters on the screen. That represented who was next to play.

Hobokag look, I'm all for it man! I'm super hyped for you dude. Congrats!

OMG! So happy for you Chris!! Congratulations!

Awesome man! So happy your pleased with it overall! Can’t wait to see your videos on restoring back to its true form!

Congratulations on that great Holy Grail purchase!!, definitely my favorite arcade cab, I've always thought that the original sounds different from any emulation, cheers

Awesome score mate. Been wanting this machine myself since playing the week it came out. Can't wait to see it restored. Cheers from Australia.

Kom Kom Kom Kombo Breaker!!!! ✊😁 Uuuuuuuutttttttraaaaaa COMBO!!! 👊😆 Was so awesome in the arcades! Noisy as anything too!

Congrats dude! So cool to see someone achieve a dream and clearly noone deserves an original KI more than you! Enjoy!

Congratulations man. You deserve the views with the quality content. Can't wait to see some playthroughs on it

So happy for you. It's a great feeling to finally capture your dream arcade cabinet. Still today, I can't believe I have an original K I too. We both have a passion for Killer Instinct and it never goes away. Enjoy playing that full size K I and spending a little TLC on it.

You deserve it man. Thanks for all your help with your tutorials man. Looks like youre startin a sick arcade with those full size cabs 👍

Congrats dude! Amazing.

Congrats man! Finally!! Hoping for lots of gameplay 😊

ohhhhh man!!! Congratulations bud!! now you need the Gaming Shed built in the backyard!! looks sweet too

This was my favorite arcade fighting game of the 90s.. I was a teen then. Time sure flies. Thanks for the video

Nice!! You weren’t joking when ya said check my video tomorrow about this game! Nice pick up congratulations! It’s nice seeing other people who truly appreciate this awesome game! This is truly a GEM, I am now 37 and still enjoy playing this game.

Yah!!! Congrats! It looks fantastic!

congrats on the pickup! Thanks for sharing! :)

Congrats man! Awesome cabinet!

Absolutely incredible you got your holy grail! Congratulations

Congrats! How exciting!

Awesome man, your collection is growing more impressive by the day! I say keep the original spinning rust drive whenever possible lol. At least for me, collecting original hardware is to keep the experience as it was back in the day sorta like a time capsule. I do get the merit for SD cards and may be quite necessary in the future.

Congratulations on your KI machine. I am glad you found it. I know you have been looking for a while.. It is like being a proud parent.

Just came across your channel- Killer score you got here. This cabinet has always been one that I would snag as well. I remember this cabinet being sooo loud in the arcade. Those combos climbing in volume was always so good.

Glad you finally got one bud. Its my favourite game of all time too. I’ve got KI1 and KI2 cabs, both signed by Kev Bayliss of Rare, lead on art design, motion capture, character development and voice artist for both games.

Congrats Man. I have a good idea of how you might of felt picking this up. I know when I picked up my Virtual pinball, and my full size arcade mame cab. I felt very very excited just like a Kid. Couldn't wait to get it home. Very happy to hear it finally happened for you!

Happy for you man. You got it you finally got it.

Very nice Killer Arcade Games! I'm a fan of the full size cabinets as well.

I just found this channel and I am so pumped! I grew up playing KI with my best friend in the arcade and then coming home to play it on the SNES! I am from Texas too lol Texas cold that made me laugh cause i know what you mean.

That's awesome man. I got my killer instinct arcade1up on January 15th.. I love this game. I haven't played it in foreverrrrr

Congrats man so happy for you!

Congrats!

I was thinking this might be what it was congratulations happy for you!

Happy for you lad now go enjoy yourself. Ultra combo!

I KNEW IT !!! CONGRATS MAN

Killer instinct was such a good arcade game.

I’m glad you found your cabinet. I’m happy for you bro.

So cool man!! So happy for you brother 👍

Nice bro congrats you deserve it 👍

WOW! Congrats!

Congratulations mate, well deserved. Perhaps you can consolidate the KI as a double boot system and slowly phase out some of the 1ups to get some space. Keep the great content coming out.

Happy for you bro I love this game

One of my all time favorites. I don't even want to know how many dang Quarters I pumped into the local Arcade on this thing. I wish I had one two. Looks like its in good shape.

Congrats my man! I own a KI2 PCB and have dreamed of owning a actual cabinet. Glad to see that it came to a good home!

Love this so much! My grail is to build a cabinet from scratch and nerd out on that whole process. Some day!

Your garage reminds me so much of my own garage! Congrats on picking up Killer Instinct!

Really happy for you man!!!

Dude nice pick up for that price. at a reasonably close distance!!!! Pretty damn good shape.. a little cosmetic wear and tear but def you can work with that… glad you picked one up man!! Really happy for you 👍

So awesome dude ,i am so happy for you !!!

Whoa, available at home in 95!!! Can wait!!

That is awesome man! 👌

Oh wow! It was such an exciting time for gaming back then. Games like KI were such a step up. 😎👍

That RUSH CABINET THOUGH!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍

That's awesome.

Congrats on the find!!! Yeah pretty good for how good of shape it's in. Yup kinda funny you used to say you weren't after real arcades, because of the size. now you got three.

I remember playing KI2 and loved the control panel. Almost didn’t want anyone else playing it after I saw the first burn mark. I was soo mad and I didn’t even own it. Hogged it and remember my hands sweating all over the panel from intensity

Awesome cabinet🕹Congrats🎆

Nice!!! That Looks Amazing!!!🔥🔥🔥

Hopefully we get a live stream soon of the new machine and congratulations my man.

Florida, of course it was smoked around 🤣 Looks really nice, glad your dream came true

Congrats Chirs I'm Glade you found a killer instinct cab .

Enjoy! I had such a huge smile on my face when hearing that start up screen... I wish I had one of these too, hopefully the deluxe 1up arcade version will be released in europe soon.

When you started talking about using $$$ not for an arcade machine you have always wanted I wish I could yell out my window YOU DESERVE THIS ULTRA KILLER MACHINE!!!!! Congratulations on this one and you are so lucky to be able to get an og box that isnt a 1up box ( which is still good for me )

Been in the arcade business for 25 years, I’ve sent many of those to the land fill.... wish I had them back now

congrats dude. the best gabinet

Congratulations, I’ve been trying to get a hold of one of these for years.

Looks great. Don't go too crazy touching it up. I personally like some original patina on my cabs. Gives it character. Congrats :)

Congrats KAG!!!

Haven't watched the video yet but I got the notification. I'll watch it later. Congratulations!

OMG I'm jealous AF but happy for u...that game really had a major impact on my life. It helped me to be part of 2 diff worlds...in 1 I was a jock & decent academic student. & In the other I was a super nerd hard core gamer. Idk if any1 remembers Xband, a modem in the mid 90s that allowed SNES &Sega Genesis players to play a handful of games online. But KI not only, in my opinion, revolutionized fighting games (all luv & respect to other davs such as MK, SF & Tekken, etc) BUT it offered far more versatile gameplay style while also introducing us to them boards/levels whatever in a 3D-ish format more like 2.5D if u will...anyways I played so much & was literally addicted to the point at 15 I was winning lots of $$ whether online via SNES XBand or arcades locally. If I could own any cabinet it'd be that. For sure gonna be a man cave addition if I ever collect arcade games. But this one always did hit different, as did MK/MK2 (the latter's were good but not the same initial shock value) so salute dude. Wish we were neighbors. The fun of discovering new juggles or glitches was amazing. Thanks for sharing this, stay blessed & enjoy. PS ULTRAA COMBOO 😎

I'm so jealous! The only other real arcade cabinet I MIGHT rather have is killer instinct 2

Congratulations!! Now it time to put your hi scrore on it
