Can you expand on what tutorial or steps you took to build your own arcade cabinet? I'd be curious to see pictures or the actual internals. Did you install standard cabinet joysticks and buttons as well?
- CWuestefeld 7y agoHere [1] is an album showing the final product, and the build. I cheated and used a TankStick, but now I wish I hadn't. I think I could have managed the wiring, and it would have gone a long way aesthetically to integrate it all. I designed the cabinet myself, but that was inspired by the "Vigolix" design [2]. I scaled it up to a full 6', put in a lighted marquee, added a drawer for keyboard and mouse. The gross assembly took me 4-5 days, but a total of about a month overall because of the time to paint, dry, and sand many coats. Plus, of course, the amount of time to set up the computer hardware and software.
