For the cheapest made and lightest cabinets, Nintendo definitely wins hands down. Ever move a flimsy DK???
True story: Since I had the monitor out of it for repairs anyway, I moved my DK down into my basement by myself. Note: all weights are taken from the games flyers, unless noted. Star Wars checks in at 321 lbs. http://tinyurl.com/6bmf2 When I shipped an Asteroids the shipping slip said 310 lbs. 'Pede and Dig Dug are 307 lbs. Both Marble Madness and Road Blasters claim 327 lbs. http://tinyurl.com/4ttz8 Star Trek UR comes in at 352 lbs. http://tinyurl.com/68beh Donkey Kong is a laughable 220 lbs. http://tinyurl.com/444gs For reference, a *cabaret* Dig Dug or Centipede also weigh 220. And I didn't know that a cabaret Dig Dug had a 19" monitor and ***side art***. Now I know why you want one, Jeff. My view is anything over 250 lbs, which is what Defender weighs, http://tinyurl.com/3jnya, is too damn heavy. Not really related to this discussion, but my Race Drivin' sits in the garage, not because it doesn't work, but because it's 7 feet tall and weighs a documented (http://tinyurl.com/4gje3) 475 lbs. It's a driving game with a 25 inch monitor, but Jeebus! It's hard to move. Fun to play, though. And yeah, it's a slow work day. :) Sean
