Hey all,

Thinking of upgrading my arcade machine.  A few years ago I ran into a Tekken 4 arcade with a big screen.  The controls were set back a few feet on a podium.  I have an old 50 inch DLP not doing anything at the moment and thought it would be great to hook that baby up.  Looking for plans on a large screen arcade cab, something like this:

Anyone here build one of these?  I'd mod my cab but I'm not cutting apart a Street Fighter 2 Dynamo.  Any help appreciated.

It's called a showcase cabinet, just fyi.

Ah thank you.

You can check out Gametreks "Bad Boy" showcase thread.

As long as you got the space for something like this and able to put some distance between the player and the screen then why not.  I started a showcase cabinet myself cause I had an extra 27" Panasonic CRT flat screen TV and maybe one day I will complete it :)  I don't suppose your DLP has HDMI does it?
