This one is really making me want to learn woodworking and building my own tribute cab. I am thinking I am going to do a TMNT or TMNT Turtles in Time tribute cab. Like Donkey Kong and Pac Man were the ideal for the older generation. I remember my local Pizza Inn having TMNT and me, my uncle, and cousin beating it one day when my uncle took us to Pizza Inn. It was awesome. I just can't remember if it was the original Turtles or Turtles in Time. I had the Turtles in Time for SNES and played it a fuck ton, but I don't really remember the original. Plus, they were 4 player cabs and the viewing angle on these are better for a 4 player cab setup. |
I want a Super Street Fighter 4 arcade machine, be it real or home made.

Found a local arcade repair shop that is going to refurb an old NBA Jam/NFL Blitz Cab. They are pulling off the control panel, cause I don't want that, refurbing the monitor, redoing paint/artwork/marquee/t-molding, and basically cleaning the fuck out of it. I think I want them to use TMNT artwork for the sides and marquee. Then for the control panel, I am going to order one of the quad panels from Mameroom.com. So this project is underway.

Purchased a bunch of parts. Shits getting real. Started the process of getting the cab refurbished.
Got some GGG Electric Ice 2 LED RGB concave buttons. http://www.groovygamegear.com/Store_...SSX_SPLASH.jpg Got 5 Sanwa JLFs, which are considered one of the ultimate fight sticks. Also got hollow shafts and translucent ball tops along with LED RGBs for cool ass illumination http://www.paradisearcadeshop.com/12...t-joystick.jpg The trackball I want is currently not in stock and I haven't figured out which spinner I want yet. MAME awesomeness is developing. |
Are those joysticks 4/8 way switchable? I ended up switching mine back to the 4-way side so that games like pacman and make trax were easier to play. It takes less than a minute to switch if I want to go back.
What I would really love is a good rotary dial for super-breakout but, I'm not sure my board is set up for it. Those are some damn nice items you've got there! Can't wait to see the finished product! |

I am getting one a spinner as well, just haven't decided how big I want to go with it. They work great for driving games too and you can get tops for them to look like mini steering wheels. |
I like the arcade games. I had an Aliens vs Predator one that worked flawlessly. I'm gonna have to bust out my box of hold HDD's and find them.

I would think the square shape and the round screen of the CRT would look much more "arcade-ish" than a flat screened 16:9 set up. In the video you posted, that looks to be a CRT screen and fits the theme perfectly. :idk: |
