STREET FIGHTER 3RD STRIKE CABINET

I'm on the way to purchasing a Street Fighter 3rd Strike Cabinet.

Here's the plan.

Part I: Enjoying Street Fighter 3rd Strike
The cabinet is $220 and includes an Original Street Fighter 3rd Strike Jamma Board. As cool as all of this sounds there is one glaring problem. Street Fighter 3rd Strike has a Capcom Suicide Battery. It will only last for about 4 to 5 years before dying on me. After the battery dies, I cannot revive it so if you're my friend you better come over and enjoy it while you still can.

Part II: Playing it Semisonic Style
After the battery hangs itself, I plan on turning the cabinet into a MAME machine, allowing me to play any goddamn game I wanna play, including Street Fighter 3rd Strike.

Peace out dudes!
