The weird Amiga "Cubo" CD32

Before people started thinking that modding consoles to fit them inside an arcade cabinet is a cool thing, a little known Italian company called C.D. Express decided to take standard Amiga CD32s (which, funnily enough, is a consolized version of the Amiga 1200 home computer), slap a sticker on them. fit them with an expansion provided with a JAMMA connector  and sell the resulting combo as multi-game, cd-based arcade boards. The SISTEMA CUBO CD32 was born.
BTW, "cubo" in italian means "cube". Do you see anything remotely cubic in this thing?
